2. " the cold penetrated my clothing and frost clung to my beard." this suggests that not even the thick clothing that the writer wore at Gun Lake could protect him from the harsh cold. And the fact that it was so cold till frost clung onto his beard, freezing it, it shows how cold the writer was feeling.

3. "i stood in the silence gazing upwards and i realised that i could not feel my own finger." this suggests how cold the writer was as he was so cold till he himself could not feel his very own fingers, which tells us that there was no more blood circulation in his fingers because the writer was feeling extremely cold. ]]> 2022-03-25 01:31:11 UTC https://padlet.com/nadrah_binte_sadali3/mrntfckzlc3ohuo1/wish/2112928600 https://padlet.com/nadrah_binte_sadali3/mrntfckzlc3ohuo1/wish/2112940122 1.
