As I recall, it was a one eyed dog, but that's beside the point. He says with quiet amusement.

with calm exasperation

The narrator is not happy that he has been tricked into Simon Wheeler's story-telling antics. He is annoyed that he is stuck listening to these tales about Smiley's gambling. While he listens well, he is not amused, patient, or attentive.

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.

What connection does the author draw between physiological and psychological reaction to a life threatening incident in Thai cav
andreev551 [17]

The Story:

When 12 young footballers and their coach entered the Tham Luang Nang Non cave in Thailand, it was supposed to be a fun outing after football practice. But when a torrent of flood water rushed in after heavy rain, the group became trapped on a small rock shelf deep inside the cave’s vast network of tunnels.

It was nine days before two British divers, John Volanthen and Richard Stanton, located the group – mercifully alive and apparently in good physical and mental health.

Question:

What connection does the author draw between physiological and psychological reaction to a life threatening incident in Thai cave boys:the psychology of surviving underground

Answer:

The Author, Sarita Robinson,  concludes that the boys and their coach managed to stay both physically and psychologically healthy during the nine long days they spent waiting in the dark and that this is an important factor  which explained their surviving the ordeal underground. The fact that they were a social circle might have contributed to their survival. One person in such an ordeal might not have made it out alive.

She stated that it is not uncommon for one to give up mentally and even die regardless of the opportunities for survival.

This is referred to as Psychogenic Death.

She is of the opinion that they should be closely watched after the ordeal, and if after a period of watchful waiting psychologists are still concerned, then psychiatric care can be offered.

Cheers!
