In "Gumption", when Syl said "you can't live on gumption" he meant:

B) You can be bold and stand for what you believe in during hard times, but it won’t keep you alive.

Gumption is described as having courage, resourcefulness, common sense,  and initiative. Syl felt that is was more important to be practical - to have and keep a job than to have gumption and get fired like the Oysters.

Contextual clues give hints that you can piece together like a puzzle. They help reveal things or drop subtle hints to almost tease the reader. They can also help you understand something such as a phrase or new words.

(You use them a lot like context clues but these are broader and more vague.)

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

I played softball for 5 years. When I was younger, I loved to throw the ball around with my papa. When I got older, I tried playing softball and it was fun. I made a lot of new friends playing softball. It was fun to play with kids my age. The first thing we practiced was someone throwing the ball to me and me throwing it back to them. A few times when I practiced at home with my mama, I hurt her hand because I threw it so hard. We also practiced grounder ball which was when someone hit the ball and I had to stop it on the ground.  We also used a pitching machine when I got bigger to help me practice hitting balls at a faster speed. Lastly, I practiced running all of the bases as fast as I could. If I did not practice as I did, I would have never gotten good at playing softball. Even if something comes naturally, you should always practice because no one is perfect.

Hope this helps!
