What is one way to discern the meaning of a word using the context of the writing?

English

Dmitriy789 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

I would say to reread the sentences, as with the others you don't use the context to find the definition. By searching in the piece of work, you can get a general feel of the writing, which will help you decifer the meaning.

Identify the antecedent for the underlined pronoun in each sentence below:
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Its - car

This - More and more physicians are beginning to look not just for illnesses but also for patients' habits with long-term health  implications

Its - cow

Someone - no antecedent

It - antecedent not clear

Explanation:

The antecedent of a pronoun is the word or phrase whose place the pronoun takes. In some cases, the antecedent is obvious, while in others it's either missing or not clear.

In the first and third sentences, it's simple. In the first sentence, a car's transmission is mentioned. Instead of repeating the word <em>car</em>, we will use the pronoun<em> it</em> and its possessive form <em>its</em><em>.</em> It's the same in the third sentence (cow's tail - its tail).

The second example is interesting because the antecedent of the pronoun <em>this</em> is the entire previous sentence.

In the fourth sentence, the antecedent is missing. We don't know instead of what word the pronoun <em>someone</em> is used.

In the fifth, the antecedent is not clear as the pronoun <em>it </em>could be used to refer to the word <em>rain</em>, or the word <em>mud</em>.

What is the central idea of a text?
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The Main point the author is trying to make.

Explanation:

The main idea of an essay or text should always be the central idea. You're writing/reading about a specific topic, not the feelings, your own conclusion, or the assisting facts to prove the point of the text. Hope this helps!
