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.
Explanation:
"The Story of an Hour" was written by the famous author, Kate Chopin. Kate Chopin was a famous American author. She wrote many short stories and novels.
In her short story, 'The Story of an Hour', she narrates the feelings and the emotion of a wife when she heard the news of her husband's death in an accident.
The word 'absolutely' is used as procession or moving forward. When Louise Mallard heard of her husband, Brently's death she was shaken and was in grief. The thoughts of the passing life and moving on was haunting to her. She knew that after her husband's death the sorrow and loneliness she will get only belongs to her completely. This is the bitter truth.
Thus this is the meaning of the word 'absolutely' in the story is.
Absolutely means completely or totally or with certain.
