THE ANSWER IS NOT A. STRIDE!!!

I took the pf exam, and I got this question wrong!

the correct answer is (d) run

Example:

Pretend you wrote this sentence: After the party, Tony stayed for another half hour.


You improved it and rewrote it with a connotation: After the party, Tony tarried for another half hour.

Connotation = the flavor of a word


hope this helps;) have an amazing blessed day!

The only word that might carry a connotation (a personal feeling towards a certain word) would be A) stride.
The other words generally have a neutral connotation, if any.
