Note: I found this question online and saw that the italicized words are "speculate", "strenuous", "exaggerate", and "vicinity".

Answer:

The sentence that best uses a synonym as a context clue to clarify the meaning of the word is option D. I know I left my laptop in the vicinity of the playing field, which is near the bleachers.

Explanation:

Options A through C do not present any context clues to clarify the meaning of the italicized words. The only possible option left is D, in which we have the word "vicinity". "Vicinity" means the area near or around something. In the sentence, we have the very synonym of "vicinity" being used as a context clue for its meaning when the speaker says, "which is near the bleachers." Therefore, even if the reader does not know what "vicinity" means, he can infer the meaning through the context clue.

How does this quote means to you? Reflect to you? (In real life)
Vilka [71]

I hope this helps I tried my best lol

This quote means a lot to me since it is really meaningful. It shows to never look back and regret or not trust in yourself and instead look back and be proud of how far you've come. This quote shows to see the positive in things instead of the negative. If we look at things in a different manner then maybe we would be more positive.

Hope this helps have a great day/night <3
