   This sentence has a literal, objective meaning, which every word describing the tree means what it means. So the description has a denotative meaning.

  In the other hand, as a poetic device, the connotative meaning is used to amplify the meaning of words, making it subjective, which must be analyzed under the context of phrase (something behind the words). An example of a connotative meaning involving a tree:

 "The sun shined very hot making it almost impossible for us to walk any longer at that moment; As we decided to take another path, we knew right away it was a good choice: from the distance a big tree seemed to give us a welcoming smile, and under it we sheltered to rest for a while, giving us the energy to continue our walk"

 With  the phrase "a welcoming smile" there is a subjective message personifying the tree with a human characteristic, describing it with something that the tree doesn't have, the ability to "smile"., which in the context means that the person found it very nice to have a tree near at that hard moment.

The correct answer is B. denotative meaning.

This is the descriptive meaning as used in a dictionary to present a tree, literally.

Reread line 167-182. What is ironic about this discovery? In the pardoners tale
raketka [301]

Answer:

The expected outcome of the scene was that the rioters would meet a monstrous being "Death" but instead, they found gold.

Explanation:

Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales" is a collection of stories told by the traveling pilgrims to Canterbury. One of them was a pardoner who tells the story of the three rioters and their greed.

In "<em>The Pardoner's Tale</em>", three rioters who had done nothing except revel and drink and enjoy were told by one of their servants that his relative had been killed by Death. In drunken anger, they went in search of this person. On the way, they met an old man who told them he's been waiting for Death, and he's just left him under an oak tree. When they reached there, they found no one but instead found eight bushels of gold coins. This is ironic as the expected result will either be a beast or anything that will personify death but instead gold greeted them. Also, it is ironic as this discovery will lead to their deaths later on.

Melissa lives next door to her childhood home and has become the caregiver for her mother, a frail elderly woman with dementia a
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

D. Melissa is most likely the caregiver because she has the training and personality to do the job better than others in the family.

Explanation:

In the given case, Melissa's responsibility and ability to care for her elderly mother is not a result of anything to do with her work and availability. Just because she lives next door to the patient also doesn't seem to the right reason for her to be the sole caretaker.

The statement that her siblings will feel relief and also jealous of her is likely to be true. Moreover, she may also not receive any public help unless something more serious turns up. And also, there is a high chance that Melissa will feel pressured, stressed, and will require help and even have a breakdown.

Thus, the statement that is most likely not true is option D.
