PLZ HELP MEEE Read the paragraph. In science class, we like to spy cool things going on in our experiments. We use magnifying glasses to observe tiny growths. I look forward to every class, but it creeps me out when my classmate stares at me while I conduct experiments. Based on the context, which statement best describes the connotations of the underlined words? A. Spy and observe are neutral, and stares is positive. B. Spy is positive, observe is neutral, and stares is negative. C. Spy is neutral, observe is positive, and stares is neutral. D. Spy is positive, observe is negative, and stares is positive.

Answer:

I believe it is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they're spying "cool" things, that is positive because they enjoy it. "Observe" is neutral because it does not have a positive or negative tone, and "stares" is negative, because the speaker feels weird about the person staring at her. :)
