Answer:

d) harsh

Explanation:

the answer is harsh because in the text it used the following words: "biting wind" and "driving snow". Those words indicate a harsh snow breeze and setting.

Answer:

d)harsh

Explanation:

the diction "biting wind" has negative connotations that the conditions are absurdly cold to the point of the wind being personified as being able to bite. the diction "seemed" references that fact that the conditions are harsh enough to mask the landmark the man walks from and lastly the diction " thickly gloved hand" also emphasises the harshness of the conditions as it refers to the thickness of the mans gloves as a way to express the amount of layer needed to protect the man and his hands

"The Landlady" by Roald Dahl is a story that has a weird unusual hobby of taxidermy. She stuffs dead corpses. This hobby of her and how she deals with death is absolutely scary, at the same time interesting for readers to know her intentions behind it.

Explanation:

Billy, another main character of this story, is 17 and is annoyed by the acts of the Landlady. He thinks her to be odd and manner less as she keeps touching his hands and shoulders while talking to him. Her compliments on his appearance make Billy feel very uncomfortable, every time they have a conversation.

When the story progresses and readers get to know that the Landlady stuffed her dead pets in a briefcase and does the same with human bodies too, readers along with Billy start wondering about what kind of a sinister this woman is. She finally murders both other boys and stuff them like she did with the pets, at the end of the story.
