Answer: to describe how the enslaved were treated as animals.

Explanation:

Obviously, sheep are animals. The reasoning behind this answer, however, is not so shallow. From this passage, I do not see that Douglas’s own experience is included or that the number of his grandmother’s children is emphasized. This passage is rather short, however, so these details may be discussed elsewhere.

The slaves were first equated to sheep. Sheep are often considered unintelligent. They are herded and forced to change fields by a Shepard. They are a type of livestock and may be sold at auction. The slaves were similarly treated as having low intelligence and no valid emotions, forced where their masters willed. They are treated as livestock to be bought, sold, or slaughtered. Thus, this places emphasis on their treatment as animals and the ignorance of their humanity.

Is assertive,firmly confident ,and pushy a positive connotation a denotation or a negative connotation
JulijaS [17]

We can actually deduce here that:

  • assertive - a positive connotation.
  • firmly confident - a denotation
  • pushy - a negative connotation.

<h3>What is connotation?</h3>

Connotation is actually known to be a way of indicating the implication of a word. It shows the emotional side of a word. It it is positive or negative.

But denotation is seen as the primary meaning of a word. It is usually in contrast to the ideas that can be suggested in a word. In other words, it refers to the literal meaning of words.

Thus, we see that positive connotation refers to the word that brings about a positive feeling while negative connotation brings about negative feeling or feedback.

Read the poem excerpt.
timurjin [86]
The correct answer is The meter is fixed, drawing attention to the end rhyme.

Both lines have the same number of syllables and the accent pattern is identical in both, which means it is a fixed meter. Not every syllable is stressed however, only the ones that are required for the pattern.
