Final answer:

Words have been arranged from weakest to strongest based on their intensity. The gradients of meaning, or clines, help distinguish the varying degrees of emotion or description that each word conveys.

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal is to arrange the given list of words from weakest to strongest in terms of their intensity or meaning. Here are the arranged words in a cline, also known as a gradient of meaning, from weakest to strongest:

  1. Happy - Jubilant - Joyful
  2. Pretty - Beautiful - Glamorous
  3. Cold - Chilly - Freezing

In these sets, each subsequent word represents a stronger degree of the adjective that comes before it. Happy is a general feeling of pleasure, jubilant suggests a more expressive and intense happiness, and joyful denotes a deep feeling of great pleasure and happiness. Similarly, pretty implies a moderate level of attractiveness, beautiful indicates a higher level of attractiveness and glamorous implies an alluring beauty often associated with a kind of sparkle or special charm.

For the last set, cold is the general temperature sensation, chilly denotes a milder form of cold, while freezing implies an extreme level of coldness.
