Which sentence has the most negative connotation? O A. The rich smells of cooking drifted upstairs and tickled my nose O B. The
smell of food came to my nose from the other room. O C. The oily odor of cooking food clung to my clothes. O D. The scent of the meal traveled upstairs, where I smelled it.
C. The oily odor of cooking food clung to my clothes.
Explanation:
This sentence has the most negative connotation because, through certain key words, specifically “oily” and “clung”, it creates a descriptive scene that can easily be associated with unpleasantness since, for the most part, an oily odor is not considered a very enjoyable one, and if on top of it, it clings to your clothes, making it present all the time, it then becomes a disagreeable scent and an unenjoyable experience.
