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.

Kafkasque refers to what?
sineoko [7]
<span>Kafkasque is the expresion used to name the specific atmosphere in the works of Czech writer Franc Kafka. His novels and stories were so original and fresh, that literary critics and theoretics invented this new word, which is later used to describe the situations in fiction or even in reality which are similarly absurd, surreal and strange like those in Kafka's books. The main topics of his work were alienation, existential anxiety and guilt. His characters are isolated individuals dealing with bizare and surreal problems and absurd and incomprehensible social-bureaucratic powers. Kafkas most important works are: story "The Metamorphosis" and novels "The Trial" and "The Castle".</span>
