The statement that best describes Johnson's treatment of the underlined word is "Johnson uses the word to assert his admiration for published writing". Johnson has the ability to manipulate words as he wants. If he did not like a word or a quotation, he did not hesitate to chop, twist around or rewrite them. Johnson famously scribbled all over his books, underlining, highlighting, altering and correcting the words.
