6 0

Answer:

These actions are capable of evoking or leaving unpleasant feelings, ideas

Explanation:

A connotation here means the feelings that these actions create in addition to their true denotations.

A negative connotation can leave negative emotions and ideas for instance hesitations, filled pauses could be mistaken for fear, reluctance during conversations. Filled pauses could be because the speaker is thinking but this can be misinterpreted to be something else.

Luden [163]

I was walking alone near a supermarket at 9 pm. As I was about to cross the road I remembered that I had left my wallet at home, with all my money in it. I scolded and complained to myself for being so casual about my commitments, but I had to go back home to get my wallet, as there was nothing else I could do.

I took a deep breath and started walking back to the house. Halfway there, I was hit by a violent rain. "Excellent!" I thought, "It was just what I needed to make my day more perfect," I said angrily. I started to run so I wouldn't get soaked when I heard a noise near a tree. It was the meowing of a kitten that was freezing to death, trying to protect itself from the rain at the tubular roots of the tree. I got close to it and it flinched in fear, but I caught it lovingly and tucked it under my jacket. All my anger began to pass and I realized that fate had planned for me to forget my wallet so I could help a stray kitten.
