Answer:

Brainwash

Explanation:

The options you were given are the following:

  • convince
  • brainwash
  • persuade
  • influence

Words have two types of meaning:

  • Denotation - their literal meaning;
  • Connotation - the emotional or cultural association they carry. Depending on what emotion a word evokes, its connotation can be defined as negative, neutral, or positive.

The words <em>convince, persuade, </em>and <em>influence</em> have a neutral connotation. The only word that has a negative connotation is <em>brainwash</em>. When someone brainwashes someone else, they lead them to believe something by continually telling them that it is true while preventing them from thinking about it properly. Whenever we use this word, we're talking about a negative occurrence.

Which sentence describes the BEST way to improve your prior knowledge of an article’s topic?
belka [17]

Answer:

Look up all the words in the article's title.

Explanation:

2nd one isn't right because you should read the captions of all the paragraphs I don't think just reading the first and last paragraph would be helpful

Read another article on the same topic? Why not just read the article that you need to read. It doesn't make much sense.
