An example of colorful language would be the second option—I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up, live out the true meaning of its creed—as it is more complex and lively than any of the other sentences.

Question: Which of the following is an example of colorful language?

Options:

  • I have a dream that things will get better for our country.
  • I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up, live out the true meaning of its creed.
  • I have a dream that we will be able to live by our beliefs.
  • I have a dream that everyone will get along with each other one day.

Answer: The correct answer is: I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up, live out the true meaning of its creed.

Explanation: Colorful language can be considered slang but it can also be known as a way of livening up a text or speech by using words that have the capacity to tickle people's senses. ''I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up, live out the true meaning of its creed'' expresses more detail and complexity. Creed is a statement of belief and the part of ''live out'' is a different way of saying ''do in full liberty''.
