The sentence that uses a purely denotative verb is A. Harry drank three glasses of cranberry juice. Denotative verbs are those that use the meaning of the word directly while connotative words express the meanings of the word in context.

The sentence that uses a purely denotative verb is: Harry drank three glasses of cranberry juice. The correct answer is option A. Denotation means the literal or the dictionary meaning of the word. In the sentence, the verb "drank" is already a verb that conveys its own literal meaning.

Which of the following statements is an emotional appeal?
Scrat [10]
The best answer is B (Do you really want to take a chance on someone with no experience?). This sentence suggests that readers should <em>feel</em> nervous about "taking a chance" on an inexperienced candidate. 

By contrast, A, C, and D are all statements of simple facts that don't really ask readers to feel any particular way at all. Readers might still <em>feel</em> something about those facts, but the statements themselves don't ask readers to feel that way (i.e., the statements don't make an <em>appeal</em> to readers' emotions).

In the novel, Shelley shifts the narration from Victor Frankenstein’s point of view in the first half of the book to the monster
Elodia [21]
The best answer here is the last one, that it allows the reader to sympathize with the monster. Before we hear his side, all we know is what Victor tells us and, by all accounts, the monster he created certainly lives up to his name. He murders his younger brother and is hideous. He chases Victor down and terrorizes him until he listens. This is all quite frightening, but reading the monster's perspective certainly changes things.

Through his narration, we discover that the monster only wanted to be loved and accepted like others that he sees. He is constantly rebuffed because of his appearance, the appearance that Victor gives him. Without this narration, we would continue to think the same way as Victor: that the monster is a terrible creature. But, because we are given a glimpse into the horrors he faced, we can't help but feel sorry for him because he is lonely and doing the best he can.
