English 6 EXPLAIN giving brainliest to the correct answer​
Katen [24]

Answer:

B. The weather was frigid in Minnesota; it wasn't warm at all.

Explanation:

An antonym is the opposite word or meaning of a given word. It gives the exact opposite or different meaning of what is implied by a word.

In the context of the word "frigid", the antonym will be "warm, hot, pleasant," etc. And among the given statements, sentence B uses the antonym context of the word "frigid". While the other three statements give the implication of the coldness of Minnesota, the second sentence uses the antonym "warm" to add a different aspect of the coldness of the place.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
