A loaded question is one that contains an assumption that may not be true, which can put the respondent in a difficult position. In the examples you provided, Question #3 is an example of a loaded question because it assumes that the respondent has a preference between two specific works, one of which is described as "beloved" while the other is "less acclaimed." This framing can influence the respondent's answer.
