B. Plump

Words have both denotations and connotations.  A denotation is a word’s literal meaning (or definition), and a connotation is a word’s implied meaning.  With regard to connotations, words can be either positive or negative.  It is possible to communicate the same thing using different words and have an underlying meaning be different.  For instance, to say “My dog is fat” has a bit of negative connotation.  But, to say “My dog is plump” has less negative and even positive connotation because of how (even though both sentences mean overweight) “plump” has almost a cuteness element to its tone.

I would probably say plump. 

Essentially, in this question, you're looking for the word that would be the least insulting. More broadly, when asked about positive connotation, you're looking for a word that is not viewed negatively. 

Words like fat and cheap have negative connotations, especially when applied to people. Words like plump and frugal are much more positive.

Fallacious reasoning or logical fallacies in What To The Slave Is The Fourth Of July? Multiple examples please, maybe two.
KIM [24]

Answer:

Douglas uses  fallacious reasoning or logical fallacies in "What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July".

A rhetorician would often use logic and a well formed argument to tell the reader that their point is right or they can present an impassioned argument that may imply a sort of logical fallacy here but will get the point across with more emotion and more weight.

It is the second tactic that Douglass uses in "What to the Slave Is the Fourth of July".

It was more important for him to get his point across. So when he compares the blacks to the people of Moses in the Egypt he is not making  a logical but an emotional comparison tween the plight of the two.
