Answer:

The bright light blinded me for a moment.

Step-by-step explanation:

A word is used in the denotative sense (proper or literal) when it presents its original meaning, regardless of the phrase context in which it appears. When referring to its most objective and common meaning, the one immediately recognized and often associated with the first meaning that appears in dictionaries, being the most literal meaning of the word. Among the options shown in the question, the only sentence that uses the word "bright" with the denotative meaning is the phrase: "The bright light blinded me for a moment. "
