Suppose the following sentence appears in the sports section of the newspaper:
Lorton's experienced linemen performed well in handing Jefferson High's Eagles a
crushing defeat.
What word in the sentence is most clearly a loaded word?
A. Handing
B. Defeat
C. Crushing
also i come back on and i have more points than i did the day before does it just add points randomly?
A loaded word is the one which is obviously the most powerful word, it evokes the strongest feelings. So the correct answer is C, crushing. Because it isn't just any defeat, it is a crushing defeat.
