The boom of the bittern resounds all day, and above it the rasping scream of the blue heron, as he strikes terror to the hearts of frogdom; while the occasional cries of a lost loon, strayed from its flock in northern migration, fill the swamp with sounds of wailing. what is the connotative effect of the word scream used in paragraph 3?

A). It suggests the horror that the cry of the heron must evoke in the hearts of its prey: frogs.

Explanation:

As per the question, the connotative(implied or suggested) effect of the word 'scream' in paragraph 3 would be that 'it suggests or implies the horror that was supposed to be evoked in the prey's heart by the cry of the heron'. The 'scream' of the heron(hunter) intends to 'strikes terror to the hearts of frogdom'. The hunter attempts to instill fear and terror into the hearts of its prey and it triumphantly accomplishes its purpose through this 'scream' and thus, the prey(frogs) get frightened. Thus, option A is the correct answer.

his tongue, i believe, was bloody and hanging out of his mouth.

he looked as if he were hungry.

he has several wolf-like qualities; a gray coat, sharp claws and yellow fangs.

those eyes made me feel, dear reader, like the end was near.

as i reached for a stick, he moved to the other side of the hill.

panting and hungry, he looked at me, a defenseless human and he snarled.

well i said my prayers, however, he simply turned and limped off.
