Answer:
When an author uses the connotative meaning of a word in the text they <em><u>are showing the feelings or ideas associated</u></em>.
Explanation:
The connotative and denotative meanings of a word are two confusing ways of describing or giving details about something. While the "denotative" meaning refers to the literal definition, dictionary-definition of the word, the "connotative" meaning refers to the use of certain words and phrases related to the word along with the literal meaning.
This means that the connotative meaning is the description of words using the denotative meaning as well as the ideas and feelings attached to it. So, when an author uses the connotative meaning of a word, he/ she is using feelings and ideas related to that word.
Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.
Truth be told, it could be two. A would make sense in that the way the sentence is worded, the turtle herself seems weak. while C is also true to the word dragging as that would make it's movements awkward and difficult. I'd say your best bet would be C as turtles heavy backs and it's slowly speed would make the term "Dragging" make more sense.
