A) You can't coerce me coercively with too much coercion.
I have found the complete question for this from another resource. I will paste them here for reference:
1. They can very seldom pick up a livelihood by stealing till they arrive at six years old; except where they are of towardly parts, although I confess they learn the rudiments much earlier.
2. These children are seldom the fruits of marriage, a circumstance not much regarded by our savages.
3. Men would become as fond of their wives, during the time of their pregnancy, as they are now of their mares in foal, their cows in calf, or sow when they are ready to farrow.
A. the general perception of all poor as thieves and robbers
B. the government's lack of attention to the poor
C. the perception that Irish families lack a regard for the institution of marriage
D. the lack of institutions to conduct marriages for the Irish poor
E. the increasing number of husbands abandoning their wives and children
F. the belief that thieves and robbers are abundant in Ireland
G. poor husbands' low opinion of their wives
NUMBER 1:
This satire is talking about how poor people only earn through stealing at an early age. From the choices, we can see two options (A and F) which are talking about robbers but only one of them is the true subject of the text. Since the text is talking about a stereotype of the poor as robbers, option A is more appropriate for this item.
ANSWER: A. the general perception of all poor as thieves and robbers
NUMBER 2:
This piece of text is hinting that most children have parents who are not married (clue word: seldom). The text also hints that the "savages" do not care about that fact. Among the options, two are talking about marriage (C and D). However, among these, only choice C accurately encapsulates the subject of the text.
ANSWER: C. the perception that Irish families lack a regard for the institution of marriage
NUMBER 3:
The excerpt in this item is talking about how husbands are ONLY fond of their wives when they are pregnant. This means that the text is hinting that the husbands are not as fond of their wives when they are not pregnant. Choices E and G talk about husbands and wives but choice G captures the subject of the satire more.
ANSWER: G. poor husbands' low opinion of their wives

Christmas is a more important festival to Christians than Easter because Christmas symbolises the birth of Jesus Christ and the long journey Mary and Joseph took. Christmas marks the birth of a miracle worker and the birth of the ‘old testament’. Jesus is a huge part of Christianity as a faith and religion and Christmas is the start of that. Easter however is still a very imprinting holiday to Christians as it marks the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. (if this question is worth 12 mark i suggest you expand on this more)
hope this helps
Answer:
When an author uses the connotative meaning of a word in the text they <em><u>are showing the feelings or ideas associated</u></em>.
Explanation:
The connotative and denotative meanings of a word are two confusing ways of describing or giving details about something. While the "denotative" meaning refers to the literal definition, dictionary-definition of the word, the "connotative" meaning refers to the use of certain words and phrases related to the word along with the literal meaning.
This means that the connotative meaning is the description of words using the denotative meaning as well as the ideas and feelings attached to it. So, when an author uses the connotative meaning of a word, he/ she is using feelings and ideas related to that word.
Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.
