4 +1 | to be alert |
|
in order to be alert Explanation: I think it probably expresses purpose: they engage in mystery narratives in order to be alert. If the writer had meant "they take pride and pleasure in being alert", he/she should have expressed it differently, though it is just possible that this was the intended meaning but it has been expressed badly. As it stands, purpose is the only reading that makes sense to me. |
