The connotative word for me is PITIFULLY or pitifully young. This means very young and it refers to the woman in the text.

It would seem that the words used invoked negative emotions because the narrator is saying that the girl is very young to be married. It would seem as though the narrator is questioning the rightness of the bride's decision of getting married at a very young age.

Answer: D. Jackson relies on long, flowing sentences, whereas Rutledge relies on short, direct sentences.

Explanation:

Andrew Jackson’s address to the Congress and Michael Rutledge’s “Samuel’s Memory” certainly differ in writing techniques and language use. In Jackson's speech, there are long sentences, which makes the speech convincing and helps him demonstrate his intelligence. However, Rutledge's sentences are often short, quite simple and straightforward.
