Part a read these sentences from paragraph 3 of the passage. what he most loved, that i most hated. that which to him was a great evil, to be carefully shunned, was to me a great good, to be diligently sought; and the argument which he so warmly urged, against my learning to read, only served to inspire me with a desire and determination to learn. which definition best expresses the connotative meaning of the word warmly as the author uses it in the second sentence? quietly and seriously impatiently and quickly angrily and pointedly lovingly and gently part b what effect does the author's use of the word warmly have on the meaning of this passage? it shows that mr. auld feels strongly that douglass should not learn to read. it shows that mr. auld realizes that his wife may be right about douglass. it shows that mr. auld wants douglass to have a good future. it shows that mr. auld has genuinely warm feelings for douglass.

Hello there!

Part A.

Connotative meaning is the emotional or cultural meaning that you give to a certain term. In the narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, the connotative meaning that the author gives to the word "warmly" in the second sentence should be "quietly and seriously".

Argument: Since Mrs. Auld does not know how to treat a slave -because she has never had a slave before- wants to teach Douglass how to read. She assumes that he is warmly urged to learn, but nobody hears him screaming for a better life.

Part B.

The effect that the author uses within the word "warmly" in this passage is that Mr. Auld feels strongly that Douglass should not learn to read.

Argument: When Mr. Auld notices that his wife is teaching Douglass how to read, he gives her a lesson. He said to her that teaching a slave how to read is forbidden and illegal, and he stands out the point that if slaves start knowing the basics such as reading, they would not want to be slaves anymore and people like them -Mr. and Mrs. Auld- would not have servitude.
