Which sentence/phrase is BEST to cite for author's word choices that suggest positive connotations?
Alika [10]

I just answered a question exactly like this one but I will answer it anyways.

I believe the answer is: C)  Hiawatha...was probably based on a real person, a peaceful hero who helped to unite the Iroquois people hundreds of years ago.

This is because a connotation is an idea or feeling that a word invokes in addition to its literal or primary meaning. Seeing from the above information, Hiawatha seems to be about a positive event.

Separate the figurative language from the literal
Alex_Xolod [135]

The figurative language is the part where the meaning is made apparent indirectly while the literal is where what is said is meant that way.

Explanation:

Figurative Language

"Thin as a soda straw the slate pencil was

wrapped in red, white and green paper, the colors

spiraled as on a barber's pole."

<u>Here, we can see that there is a use of simile and metaphors to compare the pencil to a soda straw to show how thin it is and to show that the colors spiraled which does not happen in real. </u>

<u />

Literal Language

'The slate was set in a wooden frame decorated with

red and green stripes. In one corner there was a small

hole in the frame for the string to which the slate pencil

was tied. '

<u>This passage is informational and literal.</u>

Because it makes a direct line to a young person to be creative by drawing from personal experience to make a story or a feeling, and do it without restraints of clarity or direction. They can describe a feeling without trying so hard to follow grammar rules and focus on making it sound good.
