Read this sentence from an advertisement:

balandron [24]

Answer:

C. Peaceful

Explanation:

To answer this question we need to understand why some words feel more positive and some more negative. What influences the words?

The words have denotation and connotation; these are two different meanings of a word.

The denotation of a word is its explicit or direct meaning. The connotation of a word refers to a meaning that is implied by a word apart from its direct meaning. Words can have cultural and emotional associations or meanings.

Also, the words can have positive or negative connotations; it depends on the social, cultural, and personal experiences.

So, keeping this in mind, we can say that the word 'boring' has a negative connotation. It gives us an impression of something annoying and dull.

From the given options:

the word 'stale' has a negative connotation. It is something unsympathetic.
the word 'monotonous' has a negative connotation. It gives an impression of something boring and dull as well.
the word 'lifeless' has a negative connotation. It is something unalive, dead, inanimate.
only the word 'peaceful' has a positive connotation. It gives an impression of something good, calm and without worrying.

I hope it helped you :)
