Answer:

Contrast Structure using conjunction "although"

The conjunction "although" in this sentence is used to describe contrasting ideas present in two clauses.

Explanation:

"Although" is normally used as subordinating conjunctions i.e. to connect subordinate clause to the main clause. The sentence describes two contrasting or different ideas. From the idea, that thunderstorms are more common than hurricanes and tornadoes, one expects they would be less dangerous. But in contrast it is not the case (according to the author) - they are equally dangerous. Hence "although" is used to connect two contrasting ideas of two clauses.

Firdavs [7]
For short answer skip the ones you don't know and then go back to them at the end. Write the essays first so you don't run out of time. If you don't know the material fully just put down what you do know and then reword it a few ways to make your essay longer. Also, look for clues in the other test questions that could give you information on either responses. Hope that helped!
