第一周unit 1 the Correct Word(I)
English Writing Unit I : The Correct Word(I) Objectives Recognize multiple meanings a word may have, i.e. denotative and connotative meanings, affective and collocative meaning. Teaching Points 1. What is denotative meaning and what is connotative meaning? 2. What is attitude? 3. What is collocation? Warm-up Activities Look at the following pictures about roses in different colors.

We call the suggested meaning of a word its connotation. Denotation, on the other hand, refers to the literal and primary meaning of a word--- the definition you find in a dictionary.
