The correct answer is C. The essay I wrote is pure garbage, but I don't know how to fix it.

Explanation:

The connotation of a word or connotative meaning refers to the association in terms of thoughts, emotions, and feelings a word has. This type of meaning differs from the denotative meaning of words or the meaning found in dictionaries that is a "universal" meaning. In the case of the word "garbage", the literal meaning of this word is any material that has been discarded or is a waste, while its connotative meaning refers to the quality of being inferior.

Considering this, the sentence that uses the connotation rather than the denotation of this word is "The essay I wrote is pure garbage, but I don't know how to fix it.", because in this sentence the word "garbage" does not refer to a discarded material (denotative meaning), but to an association of the word that is something that is useless or that is inferior (connotation).

Such was the impact of poet Ingrid Jonker that decades after her death in 1965, the late Nelson Mandela read her poem, The Child who Was Shot Dead by Soldiers at Nyanga, at the opening of the first democratic Parliament on 24 May 1994.

“The time will come when our nation will honour the memory of all the sons, the daughters, the mothers, the fathers, the youth and the children who, by their thoughts and deeds, gave us the right to assert with pride that we are South Africans, that we are Africans and that we are citizens of the world,” he said 20 years ago.

“The certainties that come with age tell me that among these we shall find an Afrikaner woman who transcended a particular experience and became a South African, an African and a citizen of the world. Her name is Ingrid Jonker. She was both a poet and a South African. She was both an Afrikaner and an African. She was both an artist and a human being.”

She had written the poem following a visit to the Philippi police station to see the body of a child who had been shot dead in his mother’s arms by the police in the township of Nyanga in Cape Town. It happened in the aftermath of the massacre of 69 people in Sharpeville, south of Johannesburg, in March 1960. They were marching to the police station to protest against having to carry passbooks.

Why is a teenager being emotionally stable a good benefit when moving out on their own
viktelen [127]

Answer and Explanation:

When a teenager is emotionally stable, they will think clearly in what they think will do best for them as they move out on their own. If they were not emotionally stable, their actions will be driven by their emotions, usually being  sadness, anger, and fear, or be driven by what's causing their emotions, which can be depression, negative thoughts, and thinking what others would say would be negative. An emotionally stable teenager will be able to make stronger decisions and will have put thought into what they want to do and what needs to be done for them. Their life will go smoother and happier than those who are emotionally unstable, because an emotionally unstable person has the chance of committing sui.cide or do bad actions such as drugs or smoking.

I hope this helps!
