English

Answer:

Shylock in "Merchant of the Venice" is depicted as a comic character in the scene because of the way he laments the loss of his daughter and his ducat.

Explanation:

The manner in which Shylock's laments added humor to the play, His repetition of "O my daughter!, O! my christian ducats", amuses the audience and shows his greedy nature because it is shown that Jessica is another possession for him as well as the ducats.

The manner and way in which the boys of Venice mocked and jeered him as they followed him by repeating the tone of his lamentation, all this added to the humor in the scene. Shylock wants justice from the Jew who had eloped with his daughter and taking with her, his jewelry and ducats.

Combine these sentences by turning one of them into a phrase.
vichka [17]

Answer:

The right way to combine the sentences by turning them into a phrase is the following one:

(D)Icy winds, which blow across Antarctica throughout the year, make the continent seem even colder.

Explanation:

If we want a phrase, all we need is a subject and a predicate. Therefore, by adding the relative pronoun "which" referring to the icy winds we form a more concise phrase with a subject (Icy winds,...) and a predicate (...which blow across Antarctica throughout the year, make the continent seem even colder).  It is clear that all that appears after the subject refers to it and its acts, that is, it is said in the phrase that icy winds do two things:

1- they blow across Antarctica throughout the year.

2- they make the continent (Antarctica) seem even colder.
