Well I mean the story very likely could take place in the U.S honestly. I didn't find anything distinctive of Dublin, Ireland in it. Culturally, it seems like a very busy, fast paced sort of place that values small business, what with the trolley system being very crowded and the bazaar being pretty popular. Hope this helped.
All you have to do is basically as you said, drop the e in exposure and add -ure to the end.
Exposure
Assuming the question asks which of the following is found in the sentence, neither A. a dependent clause or C. a subordinating conjunction exist in the sentence, so the only possible answer is B. an independent clause.
"The harsh wind scoured the scant remaining leaves from the trees" ⇒ This is an independent clause because it represents a complete thought.
"<span>a desolate landscape remained in its wake</span>" ⇒ This is also an independent clause.
", and" ⇒ This is a coordinating conjunction, connecting two independent clauses.
The answer is c. to your question
