In this sentence, the connotative meaning of the word "heart" is the deepest part of Douglass' being (B).

The connotative meaning of a word is what is suggested or implied by this word. It means that you shouldn't take the word literally. Often, it is its second or third definition in the dictionary, but it can also be a metaphor.

In this case, the connotation is used as an image for Douglass' core feelings and thoughts. In the excerpt, he is saying that the words he read or heard "sank deep into [his] heart," meaning that they touched him deeply.

Write a letter to your mother asking her about her health and stating that you miss her a lot​
inysia [295]

Answer:

Dear mother,

I hope this letter will find you in the best of health and fitness. It is after a long time I am writing you as I was busy with my examination. Now the examination is over and I am free to talk a lot to you.

First, let me know about your health. In fact, I was very worried to learn about the deteriorating condition of health ever since I learnt this. You have been very careless towards your health. You have always been very concerned for the needs and well-being of each and every member of the family but at the cost of your health and comfort. It is the result of your careless attitude that your health is deteriorating. It is a matter of great concern for all of us. If you will not be in good health and fitness, who will take care of us? It is you who are always there to care for us either it are our education, health or any other matter. So, do not ignore yourself. Take care of yourself.

How is Aashu? How is her study? She is not very sincere to her studies. She wastes her time in video games and other meaningless activities. She needs your particular attention. I am eagerly waiting for the summer break so that I can see you. It seems that I have been away for long from home.

With best regards.

Your loving son, (Name)

There is a difference between how different the two genres are. Some fiction stories are clearly fiction because they can have flying dinosaurs or something. But sometimes even fiction can possess many qualities that nonfiction also has. In fiction, there tends to be a lot of imagination involved in Fairy Tales have. There can be princesses or people with superpowers. Usually, something that doesn't exist. What I dislike about fiction is that at times it can make you hopeful for something you cant have. An example can be CInder by Marrissa Myer. Nonfiction tends to be about something that has happened. They usually tend to be people talking about their life experience. I dislike nonfiction because of its lack of imagination (but that is just a personal objection.) An example can The Diary of Anne Frank
