A past participle represents a verb that has been completed but is mentioned in the present voice. Because the representatives are being spoken about in the active voice, but the meetings have already happened, a past participle is used. The past tense of 'to hold' is 'held', but adding the 'have' in front of 'held' turns it into a past participle.

"Hold" is present tense
"Holding" is present participle

Read this sentence from an advertisement:
balandron [24]

Answer:

C. Peaceful

Explanation:

<u>To answer this question we need to understand why some words feel more positive and some more negative. What influences the words?</u>

The words have denotation and connotation; these are two different meanings of a word.

The denotation of a word is its explicit or direct meaning. The connotation of a word refers to a meaning that is implied by a word apart from its direct meaning. Words can have cultural and emotional associations or meanings.

<u>Also, the words can have positive or negative connotations; it depends on the social, cultural, and personal experiences.</u>

So, keeping this in mind, we can say that the word 'boring' has a negative connotation. It gives us an impression of something annoying and dull.

From the given options:

  • <u>the word </u><u>'stale'</u><u> has a negative connotation.</u> It is something unsympathetic.
  • <u>the word </u><u>'monotonous'</u><u> has a negative connotation.</u> It gives an impression of something boring and dull as well.
  • <u>the word </u><u>'lifeless'</u><u> has a negative connotation.</u> It is something unalive, dead, inanimate.
  • <u>only the word </u><u>'peaceful'</u><u> has a positive connotation. </u>It gives an impression of something good, calm and without worrying.

I hope it helped you :)

What is the message or comment on life contained in a literary work?
Anna11 [10]
I would say the correct answer is A. the theme. Whereas a literary work depicts a plot of some kind, recollecting particular occurrences in the lives of its characters, its theme is a general principle that can be derived from it, a universal message that can also be applied to many other works of art. A single work of art usually has many themes.
