According to the passage the close meaning of 'connotation' is ...........

  • A.Different meanings
  • B.Invoked meanings
  • C.Similar meanings
  • D.Invited meanings

Answer: B

The close meaning of 'connotation' is invoked meanings.

A connotation is an idea or feeling that a word invokes in addition to its literal meaning. When the passage says political education has many connotations, it means the term suggests or implies several ideas.

'Different meanings' is too loose, since a connotation is an associated meaning rather than a separate definition. 'Similar meanings' describes synonyms, and 'invited meanings' is not an accepted sense of the word.
