You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
This quote helps motivate me because it helps me realize that I'm actually good at things. I also use this quote to help me get through things when I'm nervous because it makes me think that I can do anything, despite the challenge. This quote has also shown me that I should believe in myself because nothing can stand in my way when I really try my best.
Connotation is the emotion that a word incites in someone. It doesn't have to do with the word's actual definition, (denotation) but is very important to its usage.
The words "puppy" and "doggy" have a good connotation, making them sound cute and diminuitive.
The words "mutt" and "hound" have a bad connotation, which makes them sound dangerous.
The words mean the same thing (they have the same denotation) but the sentence changes a lot depending on which one you choose.
As for the examples you gave, "standpoint," "view," and "perspective" are all pretty neutral. (not good or bad) However, a "bias" is a view which is clouded by something, usually personal interest. Note that not only is the connotation of this word different, but the denotation is too.
1. The correct answer is A. theme.
Theme of a novel or other literary work is the main idea - what the writer wants us to understand and remember after we've finished reading it. It is usually something short, and true, which is why in the literary world the theme is also known as short truth.
2. The correct answer is B. Love is blind.
This is not a topic found in The Call of the Wild, whereas primitive instincts rising to the surface, as well as survival of the fittest do. The novel is about a partially domesticated dog whose wild instincts are kicking in so he has to decide what to do next.
3. The correct answer is C. solidarity.
The word solidarity means unity, agreement - and it is evident in a sports team which has won a game. Exertion means a struggle, a lot of effort; the word heredity relates to genetics, passing down genes from parent to offspring, so neither of those two options are correct.
