It sounds like a noun but I'm just guessing
Answer:
c) International organization composed of independent states brought together to encourage diplomacy and peace between various countries. The UN is also in charge of maintaining treaty obligations and ensuring that countries included in the organization obey international laws.
Explanation:
A is wrong because not only European countries are members of the UN
B is wrong because the United States and Canada are not the only members of the UN
D is wrong because the UN is not about encouraging an arms race between various countries.
The adverbial phrase in this sentence is A) for a moment. A phrase means that there is no finite verb, and adverb means that it denotes something (in this case, time).
B, C, and D cannot be correct because there is a verb there, which means it is a clause/fragment, but not a phrase.
The original came out in 1971. If that's the one you're talking about then Roald Dahl wrote the original. Hope this helps! :) :D (ps. let me know if you were talking about a different version.)
