Part 1: An Introduction to Elizabethan England Gaining information from a text happens implicitly and explicitly. __________ is
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Explicit information; Implicit information.

Explanation:

An information source can be defined as a system or medium through which informations, knowledge and ideas may be gotten and used by an individual. It can either be a primary or secondary source of information.

The source options for informations are television, radio, web, newspapers, journals, magazines etc.

In English literature, an explicit information can be defined as any fact and details that are clearly written out by an author, without leaving anything implied.

This ultimately implies that, an explicit information doesn't require the use of context clue by the reader because the fact and details about the topic or subject matter are written clearly by the author.

Hence, when an information is directly stated by the author or writer, it is referred to as an explicit information.

On the other hand, an implicit information requires the reader to combine details provided by authors and use context clues from the text with background knowledge to make an inference.

In English language, an inference can be defined as an act or process which typically involves a person deducing the meaning or message from something through induction.
