Answer: C) Life.

Step-by-step explanation: the connotation of a word is the meaning given by the context or even by the audience based on their emotions and personal experiences. It is the antonym of denotation, which is the literal meaning of a word. In the given excerpt from "Wings" the connotation of the word "flight" is "life" because it is expressing that they will carry forward into their lives, the lessons from their parents' generation.
