First, you need to know what a gerund is. It refers to a word form that looks like a verb + ing. So here, the gerund phrase is <em>walking in the deep snow. </em>Also, you need to know that gerund is practically a noun in a sentence, meaning that it can function as either a subject or an object of a sentence. Here, the correct answer is the subject. 
If you are unsure, you can replace the phrase with a pronoun He, for example: He made me feel... And you will know it is a subject, because the object would be Him.

Which parts of this excerpt from John Bunyan's The Pilgrim’s Progress show that the central character is devoutly religious and
Maurinko [17]
In my opinion, these parts show that the central character (Christian) is devoutly religious and God-fearing: <span>Because I fear that this burden is upon my back will sink me lower than the grave, and I shall fall into Tophet [Isa. 30:33] And, Sir, if I be not fit to go to prison, I am not fit, I am sure, to go to judgement, and from thence to execution; and the thoughts of these things make me cry. Christian has experienced first-hand that life is cruel and difficult. It would be far too easy to give up on life and embrace death, but he also knows that there is one thing worse than death, and that is hell. If he were to give up, he would end up in hell. So, he is willing to go down the path of salvation, with the help of Evangelist. This part also shows it: </span><span>Whither must I fly? It means that he is humble enough to obediently follow the path that Evangelist shows him. "The Pilgrim's Progress" shows us a central character who is weak and pliable just like most of people. He often errs and goes astray, and it's his humility and commitment that give him enough courage to follow Evangelist's guidance.</span>

Which sentence is punctuated correctly?
kumpel [21]
You should place commas around a phrase the at adds additional information to the sentence, but which is not necessary.

1)<span>Tanna president of the National Honor Society truly enjoys volunteer work.

this part is not necessary, so commas are required before and after it

2) The old house, that my father grew up in, is being completely renovated.

here the commas are unnecessary! that's because we need the information in boldface to identify the house

4) </span><span><span>My sister, who is a waitress at Billy’s Big Burger Shack, is sixteen years old.</span>

this is a correctly punctuated sentence - the information about being a waitress is additional.

5) The bird that built a nest in the oak tree, appears to have an injured wing.

here either the commas should be removed, or another comma added after "bird"

</span>
