Neutral connotation: house, fact, vegetation. Neutral connotation implies that the words used do not carry an extra meaning based on emotions. In this case, the words “house, fact, and vegetation” do not imply another meaning, just the literal one.  

Positive connotation: home, happiness, rose. Positive connotation implies that the words carry an extra meaning apart from the literal one and affects positively in the context used. In this case, the word “home” implies the physical place as in house but it also implies that it is a cozy place where we feel comfortable. The word “happiness” is by itself a word with a positive connotation since we associate it with good things. And finally, the word “rose” has also a positive connotation since it is associated with love, flowers and spring.

Read this example:
SIZIF [17.4K]

The correct answer is option B. "The author should provide more information about the person quoted". In this example the author is citing "Donald Begha" to state that texting while driving is almost as dangerous as drinking and driving because of the number of auto accidents that they cause. Since the author is using an important statement it would be useful to give more information about "Donald Begha" and how it is an authorized person to make the statement.

Based on this excerpt from Ernest Hemingway's "In Another Country," what is the contextual meaning of the word resign?
kiruha [24]

I believe the answer is: A. "I am sorry," he said, and patted me on the shoulder with his good hand. "I would not be rude. My wife has just died. You must forgive me."

The word resign indicates accepting some sort of feeling or situation that cannot be ignored or pushed aside. From the sentences in option A, we can infer that the reader already accept the fact that his wife has died and acknowledge that his emotion is influenced by it.

Read the excerpt from Hemingway’s A Farewell to Arms.
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

What exemplifies these men as heroes, as described by Hemingway, is:

D. They act casually and go about regular business, such as smoking, while actually in grave danger.

Explanation:

"A Farewell to Arms" is a novel by author Ernest Hemingway narrated from a first-person perspective. The narrator is Frederic Henry, an American lieutenant who is serving in Italy during the first World War.

This particular excerpt shows how the men are able to keep a cool head even though they know an attack is about to happen. That is what distinguishes heroes from those they protect. While regular people would feel nervous or scared, would run away to escape danger, heroes are able to remain calm. To show that, Hemingway describes how easily they go about regular business, such as smoking, as if danger is not lurking.
