Context clues are phrases or words that help you describe and illustrate a certain word in a phrase, sentence, clause or statement. This in turn guides readers to a certain plausible explanation of a unfamiliar and unrelatable conclusion and this can also reduce misconceptions and misinterpretations about a supposed phenomenon. <span>The context clues in the given options are : his lunch from his kitchen table.</span>

Answer:

1. When direct explanation of a word can be given.

3. When restatement by use of synonym can be used.

4. When a summary clue can give meaning.

5. When a general meaning will suffice.

7. When words in a series can clarify.

8. When personal experience clarifies the word.

Explanation:

Context clues is a technique that helps us infer the meaning of an unknown word by looking at the surrounding information of that word.

This technique can give us a general meaning of the word and should only be used when we do not need an exact meaning. Thus, this technique should not be used when the understanding of the passage depends on the definition of that unfamiliar word, when the same word is repeated several times and we don't have enough information to infer its meanings, and it should not be used when the word has several meanings because it can be confusing.

alexdok [17]

Answer:

How long had you owned the flat before you sold it?

My shoes were dirty because I had worked in the garden?

Explanation:

The past perfect tense also known as the pluperfect is used to refer to an action or event that occurred before a specified time in the past. It is formed by combining 'had' with the past participle or past tense of the main verb. In the two sentences above, the correct tenses are;

had you owned, and

had worked.

The events happened before a specific time in the past. For example, The first subject owned a flat in the past, before he sold it. The ownership as well as the sale were both past events.

Who says the following and why?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Aeolus is refusing Odysseus's request for assistance.

Explanation:

The Odyssey is Homer's one of two epic poems, the other being Iliad.

In Book 10 named Circe, Odysseus and his crew during their adventurous journey had to stay with Aeolus (A king), who had power to control and command winds. He assisted Odysseus with a bag of wind containing all winds but west wind. Once when Odysseus was sleeping his men opened the bag considering it filled with some treasure. As a result a storm from the released winds hit upon their ship and took them back to Aeolus. Odysseus ask again for assistance, but Aeolus refused to help them because they had drawn the ire of the gods, saying;

<em>"It's a crime to host a man or speed him on his way </em>

<em>when the blessed deathless gods despise him so."</em>
