The Denotative meaning of a word is the DICTIONARY (C) meaning or definition.

The Connotative meaning of a word expresses the EMOTIONS OR FEELINGS (A) rather than the dictionary definition.

We talk about denotation when refering to a precise, neutral expression of what a word's significance is. This is helpful in understanding how to use language correctly.

On the other hand, connotation is concerned with the implied sentiments a word expresses. This happens because of association.

For example, the word "house" refers to a closed space that is used to live in (denotative meaning) and at the same time it evokes emotions such as warmth or safety when we hear it (connotative meaning).

The parts that explicitly support that ideal are where he says that he calls "not upon a few, but upon all" and where he says that "the city and the country, alarmed at one common danger, came forth to meet and to repulse it." To me, that is saying that he is calling upon everyone to potentially sacrifice their life to obtain a goal that they believe is worth that cost.

As you prepare to organize an academic paper, what's the first thing you should do?

umka21 [38]

Answer:

A). Write a formal outline using full sentences.

Explanation:

Organizing a text or paper is one of the most crucial tasks as it directly impacts the readers' interest and understanding. It not only establishes a connection among the ideas that allow the readers to relate it effectively to the thesis but also promotes their comprehension.

As per the question, the first step is to develop a formal outline of the essay or paper. This draft will begin with the thesis statement that will reveal the key idea of the paper. The thesis statement will be immediately followed by ideas that back the thesis statement and then, the key ideas are further supported in a logical manner until the topic is developed completely. Thus, this will arrange the paper in an effective and coherent manner. Hence, option A is the correct answer.
