Answer:

True, True, False, False, True

Explanation:

1. Restatement/synonym is one of the main types of context clues. 2. The meaning of many words can be inferred when one already knows the meaning of the roots and affixes that compose them. 3. While The Spy was the first to obtain wide recognition, William Hill Brown's The Power of Sympathy is considered to be the first American novel. 4. The statement before the semicolon is true, but the statement after the semicolon is false: adverb clauses in middle position should be enclosed by commas. 5. Split infinitives are advised only in certain situations, but should be mostly avoided.
