Answer:

A). Predict the definition.

Explanation:

The readers are required to go through a number of steps or stages to understand the meaning of the unfamiliar text as then only they would be able to perceive the text comprehensively.

As per the question, the readers are required to 'predict the definition' after examining the context in order to decide the meaning of the unknown or unfamiliar word. <u>The prediction helps in checking whether the predicted meaning(through context clues) goes with the meaning and context of the sentence or not and the readers would eventually be able to reach the actual meaning(as implied or suggested by the reader).</u> Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

The reader should predict the definition so as to know what the word means, at least vaguely. If not, he/she should consult a dictionary.

Catie is writing a research paper about Romeo and Juliet. In one source, she finds a quotation: "Romeo and Juliet seems to be th
Shtirlitz [24]

The correct answer is A. She should paraphrase it, because its exact wording is not creative or unique. 

In research papers, quotations should be used very sparingly, and only used when a source contains a creative or unique point that can add a nice touch if added to a research paper. The sentence, "Romeo and Juliet seems to be the most popular of Shakespeare's plays" is neither creative nor unique, which is why Catie is better off paraphrasing it in her report rather than directly quoting it.
