Lady bird [3.3K]3 years ago

I have found this question online and realized that "ice" should actually be "eyes", which makes more sense with the context of the sentence.

Answer:

The entire absolute phrase in the sentence is "eyes glittering with concentration".

Explanation:

After reading it, we realize that "eyes glittering with concentration" refers to the sentence as whole. That is what makes it an absolute phrase - instead of modifying just one noun, it modifies a whole sentence. In this case, we can imagine Jack moving his cursor while his eyes glitter, showing how focused he is.

Absolute phrases' structure include a noun or a pronoun followed by a participial phrase. For example: hands trembling with nervousness. Notice that "eyes glittering with concentration" follows that structure.

Participial phrases consist of a participle and modifiers. For example: running out of energy.

Answer:

In conclusion, people should not be climbing the Himalayan mountains because of the extremely high death rates, impractical use of sherpas, and the numerous rumors about the once-feared giants of the east. The Himalayan mountains deserve to be respected and the people in the are should be helped. With people continuing to climb the mountain, neither of these things are being accomplished.

Hope this helps.
