Grammar question

I have a test coming up and my teacher gave us a review sheet and I have several questions that I am stumped on.

I need

a non-restrictive appositive modifying an IO, and an infinitive phrase as an adjective

an infinitive phrase as a PN modified by and adverb and an adjectival prep phrase

an appositive phrase and a gerund as the object of an infinitive

thanks

Thanks CJ!

Isn't an appositive always non-restrictive?

And now that I know what PN means I can have a try :-))

Teaching is to enjoy immensely the challenge. (Couldn't figure out an adjective / preposition phrase either. :-/

I don't think so.

The planet Jupiter has 63 moons.

Without Jupiterthe sentence wouldn't say nearly as much!
