Answer:
Denotation: The pig (Sus scrofa domesticus) is a non-ruminant, mammalian animal that is raised as a domestic animal or in a farm where its meat is exploited to make various products such as bacon, sausage, among others. The pig is a very intelligent animal and is constantly related to dirt because it is fed by the remains of organic products and the habit of sinking into the mud.
Positive connotation: The pig can be used as an adjective to represent an intelligent and vigorous person.
Negative connotation: The pig can be used as an objective to represent a greedy and filthy person.
Explanation:
Denotation refers to a word used to expose its literal meaning. In this way, when a text presents the pig as an animal, it is using the denotative form of the word.
The connotation, on the other hand, refers to the use of words in a figurative way, where they are used to represent something different from their real meaning. The connotation is positive when referring to something good and negative when referring to something bad. Thus, when the word "pig" is used to mean intelligence and vigor, it represents a positive connotation. When used to mean dirt and ambition, it represents a negative connotation.
Answer:
This year has been very rewarded to me. Two months ago I started a new experience in life; I met a person from my church, she invited to me to go with her to preach god's word to a bunch of homeless. At the beginning, I was a little scared because homeless people do not have the best reputation in town but at the end I accepted.
That morning my friend picked me up really early, we had to organize the place, take the chairs, set the table, prepare the snacks, test the equipments I mean the microphone and the speakers. When we have all ready, the homeless people started to arrive. I felt a little bit weird. I never thought to be there but it happened.
They started to pray and something happened, I could see God's mercy on the face of those people. They were there enjoying that moment and accepting those beautiful words. After that, I helped to serve food and beverage and I could discover how lucky I am to have a family, food, a place called home and a lot of things.
This experience helped me to understand that I needed a change in my life; I had to be more helpful and avoid worrying for things that they are not worth them. I could see everyone with the same eyes and try to make a difference in people's life.
Life is really hard most of the time and this group from my chuch helped to see my life from different point of view.
From this experience I learned that I could be a better person, and I could help other people, whose they do not have anything in life but they are so happy with a smile, a hug a sweet word or a handshake

Answer:
The Kiowa people and their historical journey are intimately related to the land
Explanation:
<u>The author is telling the story of Kiowa history and their journey, and through it, we constantly are reminded of the importance of the land, landscape and how intimately related they are. </u>
With lines such as
- "They were a mountain people, a mysterious tribe of hunters"
- "They acquired horses, and their ancient nomadic spirit was suddenly free of the ground" and
- "When they entered upon the southern Plains they had been transformed"
we see the importance of this connection and how it transformed.
<u>Plains finally liberalized them and they weren't feeling as slaves of the survival but could flourish as the hunters. It is seen that, when they changed the land, they changed their history. </u>
