Explanation:

In language words can have either denotative or connotative meanings, a connotative meaning refers to the meaning it is created by the association people have about a word, this means that images, words, concepts and others related to a word built the connotative meaning. On the other hand, the denotative meaning refers to the meaning provided by the dictionary of a word or the explicit meaning. In the case of "a sweater is a soft and fuzzy top to keep people warm" the meaning of sweater is related to the association people create about the object such as "soft and fuzzy" and "keep people warm", which are not part of the denotative or dictionary definition of a sweater which is "a piece of clothing" but part of people experience when using sweaters. Thus, as option B, is not related to the dictionary definition, but to the associations, people create about the word sweater this is not a denotative meaning, but a connotative one.
