1. Denotation defines the literal meaning of a word whereas connotation is an idea or feeling that a word invokes.  “Slender” and “skinny”, have the same denotation, because both words mean thin. But they have different connotations: thin is a common term, it is neutral. In contrast “skinny” implies that it is thin in a negative sense.

2. A collective noun denotes a group of people, object, or ideas as a single unit. Words like group, herd and family are examples of collective nouns. Therefore colony – a settlement of emigrants - is a collective noun.

B is the correct answer.

3. As explained above, “band” describe a group of people as a unit as opposed to “mall” or “trumpet” that are considered separately and not as a group.

A. is the correct answer.

4. The clause “was four hours long” relates to “movie”. We use the relative pronoun THAT instead of who, whom in relative clauses to refer to animals and things, so A and B are NOT the answers. The relative clause “was four hours long” needs a pronoun that act as the subject, so THAT matches.

D is the correct answer.

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Natural disasters have harmful effects on health and mental health. Though most people will ultimately do well, many individuals impacted by extreme weather events and slower moving events such as droughts, experience a range of difficulties. The mental health consequences of events linked to a changing global climate include mild stress and distress, high-risk coping behavior such as increased alcohol use and, occasionally, mental disorders such as depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress.

Climate change-related impacts can also lead to job loss, force people to move, or lead to a loss of social support and community resources ,all of which have mental health consequences. In addition, anticipation of extreme weather events and concern about the phenomenon of climate change can be stressful. There are steps you can take to better prepare for disasters and to help yourself and your family when they do occur.
