Read these lines from great expectations by charles dickens:

all this time, i was getting on towards the river; but however fast i went, i couldn't warm my feet, to which the damp cold seemed riveted, as the iron was riveted to the leg of the man i was running to meet.

what does the phrase "damp cold seemed riveted" suggest about how the narrator feels?

a. he cannot escape the feeling of the icy weather
b. he thinks the rain will make things better
c. he feels sure that his plans caused the rain
d. he sees the sky and knows what is coming.

for example, in "here is bill gates, who confounded microsoft software company" we can identify "who confounded microsoft software company" as a nonrestrictive clause modifying the noun bill gates. this clause can be describes as a nonrestrictive clause because it is separated by a comma, it adds nonessential information to identify who bill gates is and it must contain both a subject (who) and a verb (confounded)."
