Answer:

The completed statement related to this excerpt from The Tragedy of Julius Caesar would be:

The words "cowardly" and "vile" are examples of words with negative connotative meaning.

The correct answer is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Those words have a negative connotative meaning because, the audience, when reading it perceive the bad feeling the speaker goes through when pronouncing them.

Those are words that transmit an uncomfortable sensation, they produce in the reader a bad feeling and that is why they have a negative connotative meaning.
