José bought us two cardboard suitcases and one for himself, and an alarm clock like the one we used to try to win in the lottery tent in Mazatlan. Which word has a connotative meaning in the sentence?

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Read the sentence from Barrio Boy by Ernesto Galarza.

José bought us two cardboard suitcases and one for himself, and an alarm clock like the one we used to try to win in the lottery tent in Mazatlan.

Which word has a connotative meaning in the sentence?

cardboard

suitcases

alarm

tent

The word that has a connotative meaning in the sentence is: cardboard.

Explanation:

Connotative meaning refers to a meaning other than the literal one. This connotative meaning can have its origin in social or cultural associations. In this particular case, if we were to take "cardboard" literally, we would imagine suitcases actually made from cardboard boxes. But, even though they have such a name, they aren't really made from cardboard. We can, thus, say that "cardboard" has a connotative meaning in this passage.
