Answer:

Connotation

Explanation:

When we talk about the meaning of a word, we can talk about its two aspects: denotation and connotation. Denotative meaning is the literal, basic meaning of the word. You will always encounter it in dictionaries when looking for what the word means. Though, there is another kind of meaning, the one we refer to as the connotative meaning. It includes emotions and associations connected to a certain word and is usually not a part of dictionary definitions.

Connotation can be positive, neutral, and negative. <em>Economical</em> and <em>stingy </em>have similar meanings: <em>careful not to waste money or resources</em>. The difference in connotation is present, as being economical is a positive trait, while stinginess is not, as a stingy person usually isn't simply careful about not unnecessarily spending but is very ungenerous and mean as well.

Write a well-formed paragraph that summarizes the central ideas found in the excerpt from Emerson’s essay Nature. Your paragraph
saul85 [17]
Emerson obviously reveres nature and believes that one should maintain a sense of awe and wonder that children have in appreciating natural beauty. Also he states that nature does not display a mean appearance for example  in such things as glorious sunsets ore  even in menacing natural phenomena like erupting volcanoes at night time the pyroclastics cascading down the slopes of the volcano are beautiful. He speaks of the "integrity of impression made by manifold natural objects" and this is reminiscent of Alexander Von Humboldt when he and his partner Bonpland the botanist first arrived in what became known as Venezuela they were both drunk by the myriad wonderful aspects of the lush vegetation in all its tropical splendor. Emerson said "a wild delight runs through the man in spite of sorrows" at the sight of nature and that is what Humboldt and Bonpland experienced especially since they were natural scientists so could appreciate the natural environment much more.

If a reporter receives an anonymous tip claiming that the sheriff is taking payouts from a local gang, what must the reporter as
Law Incorporation [45]

<u>The correct answer is A. What proof the tipster is able to provide.</u>

The reason why it's anonymous is probably because <em>the person providing the information doesn't feel comfortable providing their identity</em>. That's why we have so many tip lines that assure us we won't be asked for our names, information about where we live or even how we know what we know. All they care about is the information we provide and the accuracy of it.

Hence the correct answer can't be C or D. Just imagine what would happen to the tipster if they are quoted or exposed. They want the crime to stop but they don't want to be harmed for being the people talking about it.

In order to stop the crime or expose it, it is<u><em> necessary</em></u> for the reporter to have <em>concrete evidence</em> of it. Without proof, the reporter won't be able to check if the tip is true. His reputation is also undermined if what he publishes turns out to be fake, so proof is very important.

Answer B it's also incorrect because the <em>intention </em>of the tipster should be <em>irrelevant</em>. Also by stating why they want to talk, they'd be revealing who they are to the criminals (or at least give them an idea) and they wouldn't remain anonymous anymore.
