Answer:

a. "Please do not hassle the customer service representatives with too frequent questions."

Explanation:

Connotative meaning is when the meaning of any given sentence or word is implied without the literal meaning of the given word or sentence. This is contrary to the denotative meaning of the given word.

Among the given sentences, the sentence which has a connotative meaning is option a where the request to not hassle the customer service representatives is made. The literal meaning of the word along with the secondary meaning which is not to disturb the customer service representatives too much with the questions.  

Thus, the correct answer is option a.
