i also chose line 6, the words included in line 6 were; demonstrator, rioter and protester.

demonstrator: the connotations of the word 'demonstrator' to me is someone that can express their opinion in a very reasonable way, i also envision a good listener and someone that is passionate about many things but won't push it upon anyone else to have the same opinion.

rioter: the connotations of the word 'rioter' is also someone who is extremely passionate, much like the word 'demonstrator' but they don't express it in the correct way. i imagine someone who is very violent and corrupt, and someone that is really unreasonable if you were to ever try and approach them, the only thing they want is violence.

protester: the connotations of the word 'protester', again i imagine someone to be very passionate but can still express themselves in the correct way without offending anyone. i have the same connotations for a demonstrator as i do a protester.

Euphemisms

i would use the euphemism 'to let someone go' if i was most likely talking to the person that had been fired from their job or to someone that knew them because it saves someone getting offended or upset. To say someone was fired from their job comes across quite sharp and harsh and the person may find it upsetting because serious consequences can develop from someone being fired, for example can't pay the bills, worst case scenario, they could end of homeless, Therefore the subject is quite touchy and in my opinion it's more polite to say the euphemism 'to let someone go'

i would use the euphemism 'to sleep with someone' if i was talking to a family member or anyone other then my close friends for a variety of reasons. i wouldn't want to come across as crude to someone that barely knows me because that's not the best first impression. i then would  use the term to my family as-well just because it's more respectful towards them rather then me using words that they would most likely prefer me not to say.

i would use the euphemism pre-owned instead of second hand if i was selling the product myself just because it makes it appear more attractive to the buyer rather than the term 'second hand'. other than that i wouldn't use the euphemism.
