The portion of the sentencd "adressed to my sister" is a PAST PARTICIPIAL PHRASE. Past participial phrases contain a verb in the past participle, in this case "adressed" and a modifier. This type of phrases function as an adjective because they provide extra informagion about a noun, in this case the "package".

None of the other options are correct because there are no adjectives, adverbs or infinitive verbs in the phrase given. It is not an elliptical clause because there are no words left out.

bagirrra123 [75]

When I first started writing professionally, there were a lot of basic questions in my mind, one of which was, What are the major differences between a short story, novelette, novella, and a novel?

Novellas and novelettes might not be very common, but we often see short stories and novels. Knowing the differences, however, is still important. Although they are all works of fiction, each type has its own purpose. In this article, I will try to put light on some of the major differences between flash fiction, short story, novelette, novella, and a novel. 

Beginners will find this very helpful in their writing journey. Apart from some of the basic differences in terms of word count, you will also learn a few technical points that differentiate these works of fiction.
