Answer:

- <u>Peak</u> is the word that best accomplishes the sentence.

- '<u>Climbing for hours</u>' is the context clue that supports the above answer.

Explanation:

In the given sentence, the most appropriate word to complete the sentence would be 'peak' as it appropriately goes with the context. The word 'peak' <u>implies 'end or top of anything' which is contextually relevant</u> to the meaning of the sentence implying that 'the hikers finally reached the top(of the mountain) after hours of arduous efforts in climbing it<u>'</u>. Thus, the other two words become insignificant(contextually).

<u>Context clues are described as the hints or clues that are provided by the author in order to assist the readers to determine the meaning of an unusual word</u>. These clues usually involve synonyms, antonyms, explanation, etc. Thus, the phrase 'climbing for hours' functions as the explanatory context clue that defines the hikers approach to reach at the top i.e. 'peak'.

When Marty rereads her draft, she realizes that sentence 6 lacks elaboration.
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Christy knew that Roosevelt Park had a clean, lively creek running through it.

Explanation:

The sentence you were given is the following:

<em>Christy knew that Roosevelt Park had a creek.</em>

The options you were given are:

  • Christy knew that Roosevelt Park had some water somewhere in it.
  • Christy knew that Roosevelt Park had a clean, lively creek running through it.
  • Christy knew that Roosevelt Park had fresh water.
  • Christy knew that Roosevelt Park had a creek in it.

Elaboration can be defined as the process of adding more information about something, for example, adding details or expanding on an idea.

Now that we know this, we can put the question you were given in different words and say that Marty realized that sentence 6 lacked details. The option that represents the best way for her to revise it is the second one. This option additionally describes the creek (<em>a clean, lively creek)</em> Marty mentioned, which makes it the best one.

What is the goal of a politician who uses “vague” language?
USPshnik [31]

The use of vague language allows them to say things in a very generic way so that they can account for what they say, any more precise language can become compromising for them as they will be asked in the future to account for what they said, so a sentence like "we will do our best to erradicate corruption" is vague and if a politician is asked to account for this they can say "well, we have been doing our best but it is not easy", now if they say "we will erradicate corruption in our government within the next three years." people can ask them to account for these exact words.
