What is denotation?A denotation is a statement or indication that has been used properly. They are not metaphorical, emotional, or have any other figurative meaning. Understanding both the denotations and meanings of words is necessary for a writer to convey herself clearly.
The utilization of a word's emotions, sentiments, and implicit meaning to generate a reaction from the reader is what is meant by connotation. This serves as an empathetic hook that authors frequently utilize to engage readers.
Two additional methods you can use to figure out the meaning of a word are denotation and connotation. The principal word's meaning is described, and the word or phrase's meaning is not required to include it.
Therefore, option D is appropriate.

according to mr.swales, what is the purpose of a tombstone
Answer:
Mr. Swales thinks that the tombstones are just lies, mere trifles that are unnecessary and a cover for the truth.
Explanation:
Mr. Swales is a character in Bram Stoker's "Dracula". He is an oracle and a man who believes in the "evil" that resides in Whitby but his predictions and warnings go unheeded by everyone.
In Chapter VI, Mina wrote in her diary that she and Lucy along with Mr. Swales and his friends were on a walk along the graveyard when their talk turned to the topic of gravestones/ tombstones. While Mina thinks that these tombstones are a great way "to please their relatives" and give them a good 'reputation' of being a loving person for the family left behind. But Mr. Swales is of the opinion that such tombstones are unnecessary, a 'veil' to cover the truth about the dead person. He thinks that "It be all fool-talk, lock, stock, and barrel; that’s what it be, an’ nowt else. These bans an’ wafts an’ boh-ghosts an’ barguests an’ bogles an’ all anent them is only fit to set bairns an’ dizzy women a-belderin’. They be nowt but air-blebs. They, an’ all grims an’ signs an’ warnin’s, be all invented by parsons an’ illsome beuk-bodies an’ railway touters to skeer an’ scunner hafflin’s, an’ to get folks to do somethin’ that they don’t other incline to. It makes me ireful to think o’ them. Why, it’s them that, not content with printin’ lies on paper an’ preachin’ them out of pulpits, does want to be cuttin’ them on the tombstones".

Balko makes his own position about the so-called obesity crisis very clear, but does he consider any of the objections that might be offered to his position? If so, how does he deal with those objections? If not, what objections might he have raised?
Your question is incomplete. You failed to clarify that the question refers to the text: What You Eat is Your Business by Radley Balko.
Answer:
Balko makes it very clear that government intervention in the way it does is not the best way to combat obesity. He does not consider any of the objections provided and his way of combating them is by pointing out everything that is wrong.
Explanation:
As soon as his text begins, Balko already criticizes the presenter of the program, whom he does not believe is appropriate to present a program against obesity when he was previously in a program that was not against that.
Of all the good options the government offers, he just believes that it is just one way to put the government between the people and their weight.
He also believes that the way they act is the wrong way to fight obesity. He thinks that the best way would be for the State to encourage people to be more responsible instead of forcing them.
He criticizes "private health" and believes that people care less and less about their health and more about that of others.

A recent visit to a National Park left you with a close encounter with a tiger, which you escaped narrowly. Express your thoughts in the form of a diary entry. 80word
Answer and Explanation:
August 23
I have just returned from the National Park (name of the park, if you wish to add it). Who would have thought what was meant to be a calm morning out hiking could turn out this way? Frightening, yet inspiring.
A tiger was lurking in the shadows, beneath the tall trees, so leafy the sun could only shine through when their branches moved with the wind. There I stood, face to face with it. It did not seem to appreciate my presence there. While it saw me as a disturbance, I saw it as a threat. My body froze, but my heart did not. I has never beat so fast, so astonishingly rapidly. I bet the tiger could hear it, could sense it. The beating seemed loud even to my human, incapable ears.
The tiger began to walk toward me, slowly and heavily, its paws treading the dirt with a sort of decisiveness only a predator could possess. I readied myself to run, knowing it would be the shortest race of my life. There was no way I could escape it... unless there was. In the distance, something sounded. A gun? Thunder? I don't know. Whatever it was, it saved my life, for the tiger thought better to run away. It wanted to avoid whatever had caused the sound, whereas I wanted to thank it.
I'm lying in bed while I write this... hands still trembling. Still, my bed has never felt so comfortable. The shaky movement of my hands is nothing but a sign that I'm still alive.
NOTE: I got a bit carried away while writing. This has more than 80 words, so feel free to edit it.
What is wrong with the following theme statement? Select all that apply. Romeo and Juliet demonstrates that people should follow their hearts. a. Implies moral or lesson b. Uses second person knowledge c. References specific plot points d. Cliché
Answer:
c. References specific plot points
Explanation:
Although Romeo and J * really show that we must follow our hearts, this is not the theme of the story narrative created by Shakespeare, but a specific point in the plot of that story.
The theme of a work does not refer to a specific point on the plot, but rather the general message that the narrative covers.
In Romeu and J * the theme would be the violence caused by love and the struggle of individuals to get rid of the past of their families. Within these themes, the romance between the two young people and their willingness to follow their hearts do not cover all the complexity and nuances of the work and therefore cannot be considered the theme.

Correct the sentence fragment by rewriting the sentence in the paragraph box below. We now know how hurricanes originate. How they affect ecology.
Answer:
We now know how hurricanes originate and how they affect ecology.
Explanation:
A sentence fragment is a clause that is missing one of the main components that would make it complete, which makes it impossible to be understood on its own. If you read the fragment "How they affect ecology" on its own, you will not obtain the necessary information for that clause to make sense. However, it does make sense when connected to the previous clause, "We now know how hurricanes originate." We can tell the fragment is supposed to be a part of this idea, of what "we know". All we need to do is connect both parts to correct the fragmented sentence:
We now know how hurricanes originate and how they affect ecology.
Answer: We now know how hurricanes originate and how they affect ecology.
Or
The origination of hurricanes is now known, as well as, how they affect ecology.
The second sentence is pretty and more understandable than the top. It conveys the meaning more clearly.

Provide a summary of the story. What is the central theme, and how is that theme developed?
Answer:
Louise knows she’ll cry again when she sees Brently’s corpse. His hands were tender, and he always looked at her lovingly. But then she imagines the years ahead, which belong only to her now, and spreads her arms out joyfully with anticipation. She will be free, on her own without anyone to oppress her. She thinks that all women and men oppress one another even if they do it out of kindness. Louise knows that she often felt love for Brently but tells herself that none of that matters anymore. She feels ecstatic with her newfound sense of independence. Josephine comes to her door, begging Louise to come out, warning her that she’ll get sick if she doesn’t. Louise tells her to go away. She fantasizes about all the days and years ahead and hopes that she lives a long life. Then she opens the door, and she and Josephine start walking down the stairs, where Richards is waiting. The front door unexpectedly opens, and Brently comes in. He hadn’t been in the train accident or even aware that one had happened. Josephine screams, and Richards tries unsuccessfully to block Louise from seeing him. Doctors arrive and pronounce that Louise died of a heart attack brought on by happiness.
Explanation:
The story begins with Louise Mallard receiving the news of her husband’s death. Initially, she is overcome with grief. However, in private she experiences tremendous joy. She realizes that the death of her husband means she is free to do as she pleases, and she can finally assert her independence. She is free from the confines of an oppressive marriage and doesn’t have to answer to an oppressive society anymore. However, Chopin weaves a surprising twist at the end of the story. We discover that her husband is alive and well, but Louise’s heart is unable to take the shock of her husband being alive, and her heart gives out.
Female independence and freedom are the main themes of Chopin’s story. She develops these themes by portraying the change in Louise Mallard after she receives the news of her husband’s death.
She thinks that all women and men oppress one another even if they do it out of kindness. Louise knows that she often felt love for Brently but tells herself that none of that matters anymore. She feels ecstatic with her newfound sense of independence. Josephine comes to her door, begging Louise to come out, warning her that she’ll get sick if she doesn’t.
What is the central theme?Louise tells her to go away. She fantasizes about all the days and years ahead and hopes that she lives a long life. Then she opens the door, and she and Josephine start walking down the stairs, where Richards is waiting.
The front door unexpectedly opens, and Brently comes in. He hadn’t been in the train accident or even aware that one had happened.

What are the two main parts of the argumentative essay? (5 points) Select one: a. Conclusion and counterclaim b. Introduction and thesis c. Thesis and claim d. Claim and counterclaim
Answer:
d. Claim and counterclaim
Explanation:
The claim and counterclaims are what separates the argumentative essay from other kinds of essays like the informative or narrative.
The claim is basically what you are trying to prove in an argument. The counterclaim is what your opponent says in opposition to the claim. To write a good argumentative essay, you must have a well reasoned claim, acknowledge your opponent's counterclaim, and write a rebuttal, which is a counterclaim to the opponent's counterclaim. That is how you show that you understand all sides of the argument.
The claim and counterclaim are the 2 main parts of the argumentative essay because you need those 2 parts to make the essay argumentative, otherwise it'll just be an informative essay(which is just informing the reader about something).

We parked the cars beyond the brickyard. The ovens and some deep holes had been equipped as dressing stations. There were three doctors that I knew. I talked with the major and learned that when it should start and our cars should be loaded we would drive them back along the screened road and up to the main road along the ridge where there would be a post and other cars to clear them.
Which best describes Hemingway's style of writing in the excerpt?
A. straightforward and simple, while still relating a lot of information to the reader
B. long-winded and offering far too much information to the reader
C. overly complicated, making it difficult to interpret and understand the text
D. effortless and uncomplicated, with little meaning for the reader to interpret
Answer:
The best way to describe Hemingway's style is:
A. Straightforward and simple, while still relating a lot of information to the reader.
Explanation:
By reading the passage, we can see most sentences are short and direct. Hemingway's purpose seems to be offering as much information as possible while, at the same time, using few words. At the beginning, for instance, he says, "There were three doctors that I knew." With this short sentence, we get to know there were doctors in the station, and that three of them were known by the speaker. Even toward the end of the excerpt, where we have a longer sentence, the style remain unaltered. It is still fluid and straightforward. The punctuation is kept to a minimum.
The best description of Hemingway's style of writing in the excerpt would be: straightforward and simple, while still relating a lot of information to the reader. The correct option is A.
Hemingway was renowned for writing in a clear and succinct manner. He focused on delivering information in a direct and effective way by frequently employing short words and plain language.
Hemingway's writing was straightforward, but despite this, he managed to pack a lot of depth and significance into his words and minimal descriptions.
This writing approach made it simple for readers to comprehend the situations and feelings depicted while also allowing for interpretation and introspection.
Hemingway wrote with intention and care, creating a rich reading experience without being unduly challenging or confusing.
Thus, the correct option is A.
