Let’s go through our options:An allusion is a casual reference. Not what we are looking for.A metaphor is comparing something dramatically. Getting closer!A denotation is basically a definition, that thing in your dictionary. This is really close, but not enough.A connotation is all that is left, but to double check, we will do a search on Google:“an idea or feeling that a word invokes”With the literal definition to support our assumption, the answer is Connotation.

1) - C) It contains an analogy and technical language but no allusion as there is no indirect reference that is not explicitly mentioned.2) - B) Neutral tone, literal as it provides a nonaligned and authentic description which is contrary to the figurative description.3) - D) The *snake* we discovered hiding in the woodshed was nearly seven feet long as it specifically exemplifies the primary meaning of the word.4) - C) She moved fast like a *snake* but fortunately did not enjoy eating live mice as the comparison in the sentence illustrates figurative device "simile".5) - B) Positive tone, allusion as it depicts an allusion to Pollyanna who always displayed a positive and optimistic tone.6) - C) Negative tone, analogy as the salesman is being compared to snake that further exemplifies allusion.7) - C) Technical language as it describes a language specific to a subject, activity or field.8) - D) Connotation is the implied meaning of a word that an author intends to convey.9) - D) Figurative language as the meanings are implied which could either be negative or positive.10) - D) Figurative language as it illustrates an exaggerated comparisons or descriptions.
