This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Read the sentence from Barrio Boy by Ernesto Galarza.

José bought us two cardboard suitcases and one for himself, and an alarm clock like the one we used to try to win in the lottery tent in Mazatlan.

Which word has a connotative meaning in the sentence?

cardboard

suitcases

alarm

tent

Answer:

The word that has a connotative meaning in the sentence is: cardboard.

Explanation:

Connotative meaning refers to a meaning other than the literal one. This connotative meaning can have its origin in social or cultural associations. In this particular case, if we were to take "cardboard" literally, we would imagine suitcases actually made from cardboard boxes. But, even though they have such a name, they aren't really made from cardboard. We can, thus, say that "cardboard" has a connotative meaning in this passage.

30 POINTS!!!!! In Fahrenheit 451, Why do you think that America has avoided some of the potential dangers that Bradbury seems to
Rudiy27
America avoided the potential dangers that Bradbury seems to fear by staying true to the rights in the Constitution. America doesn't fear people who have knowledge and can question ideology, if anything they encourage it. And that is how America avoided some of the potential dangers in Fahrenhiet 451.

A persuasive essay using 3 pieces of research that argues the reasons why adults must complete the Census 2020.
tankabanditka [31]
Why is the census so important? The results are used to determine how much funding local communities receive for key public services and how many seats each state gets in Congress. State and local officials also use census counts to draw boundaries for congressional, state legislative, and school districts.

Which statement best evaluates the use of a claim and reasoning?
joja [24]
This passage does have the claim about the movie's quality. The soundness of the reasoning is relative to the evaluators ideals. Sound reasoning means simply that it is reasoning which makes sense, or is logical. The writer states their discontent for the movie, but lacks reasoning for the over length, poor acting, and boring music. To the individual evaluating, is was distasteful. I would probably say option A.
