The correct answer is False

Explanation:

The use of context clues in reading refers to using the context in which a word appears to try to determine the meaning of it when you do not know the word or are not sure about it. Although this is one of the most common methods use to know unfamiliar words, the author of the text needs to provide enough information about the meaning of the unknown word such as defining it with other words, providing an antonym/synonym, giving an example, etc. which in some cases does not happen and without enough information or context clues you will have to use the dictionary or other methods. This implies context clues do not always replace using the dictionary as in some cases there are not enough context clues to understand a word and therefore you should use the dictionary.

The dialogue between Montessor and fortunato. In a least three sentences, explain how montresor is tricking fortunato into comin
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer and Explanation:

In Poe's short story "The Cask of Amontillado," the main character Montresor is luring his friend Fortunato to the catacombs under his home. His intention is to get revenge after being offended by Fortunato.

<u>To lure him, Montresor uses Fortunato's own pride against him. He lies by telling Fortunato he will call someone else to check if he bought real Amontillado. Fortunato is quite an arrogant wine connoisseur, so he makes a point of going himself.</u>

<u>That reveals a few things about Montresor. We can tell he is intelligent and manipulative. He used his knowledge of his friend's personality to deceive him. He is also quite a good actor, so to speak, since Fortunato was a bit suspicious at first, but Montresor's behavior soon dissipated his doubts.</u>
