Question

Carlos read the following sentence in his social studies textbook: "The buffalo once roamed the prairie in the Great Plains of the United States." Which resource would be best to use to find the meaning of the word Prairie

Answer 1

The best resource would be to use a dictionary.

Why would using the dictionary be relevant?

• The dictionary would show the actual definition of the word.
• The dictionary would show synonyms for the word.
• The dictionary would indicate the correct pronunciation of the word.

The use of a dictionary would be very efficient because it would allow the reader to have a lot of information to understand the meaning and usage of the word in that sentence.

A disadvantage of using the dictionary is that the reader would need to interrupt the reading rhythm to look up the word and the advantage would be the literal description of the word and the diversity of existing dictionaries.
