Question

1. which lines from the poem best summarizes how extremely cold northern winters can be?

\as frigid temperatures produce soft snow, icy ocean water laps at frozen rocky beaches\
\there are two sides in the dead of winter. both sides merge into one season\
\the waves pull me out, away from the warmth of home.\

Explanation:

The first option mentions "frigid temperatures", "icy ocean water" and "frozen rocky beaches", all of which vividly depict extreme cold. The second option just describes the two - sided nature of winter without emphasizing cold. The third option focuses on being pulled away from warmth rather than the coldness of winter itself.

Answer:

"As frigid temperatures produce soft snow, icy ocean water laps at frozen rocky beaches"
