A loaded word is a word that not only informs but also caries some emotion with it, such as condemning, exciting, praising.
In the statement above the loaded word is "crushing" - it makes a qualitative statement about the defeat: it was a very definite defeat.

Nata [24]

Answer:

Determination of pairs of words that best show how a single letter or pair of letters can have more than one sound is:

b. Archaeologist/Chile (the pairing of ch)

Explanation:

Archaeologist - the "ch" has a "k" pronunciation unlike the "ch" in Chile.  The "ch" in Chile has a pronunciation like the "sh + t "pronunciation.  This makes option A with the letter "d" the wrong answer, as the letter "d" as the same pronunciation in the words Discoveries/Deserts.  In the same way, option "c" with the letter "z" is a wrong answer, because the letter "z" has the same pronunciation in both Amazing/Zimbabwe.  So, we are left with the best answer as "b" with the pairing of "ch," which have different pronunciations in Archaeologist/Chile.
