Answer:

A) Context.

Explanation:

While reading a text, it is crucial to understand the meanings of challenging words given in the text in order to clarify the coherent meaning implied or suggested by the author. The author often provides 'context clues' that include a hint about the background or context in which that particular word or phrase is employed that assists the readers to understand the meaning.

As per the question, in order to determine the meaning of difficult words, the readers must divert their attention towards the 'context' along with the words that surround the word(unknown) as <em>it would help them evaluate and determine the meaning(which could be literal or suggested) of that word as per the background of the sentence more conveniently and efficiently.</em> Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

Which of the following is NOT a good way to use a dictionary while reading a piece of literature?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Look up every word you do not know.

Explanation:

Looking up every word is a waste of time. If you familiarise yourself with common prefixes and suffixes, you'll be able to understand the meaning of many words without needing to look them up in the dictionary.

Most people recommend looking up words that you can't figure out at all.

Does anyone know what the answer is
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

A goddess is trapped in the tree

Explanation:

Blood is seen where Dryope cut the flowers because the tree is the tree where a goddess was trapped.

From Dryope by Thomas Bulfinch, Dryope and Iole walked along a bank of stream. Dryope nursed her baby as she walked. Then she picked a flower from a tree to give to her child. They noticed that blood gushed from the place that Dryope cut the flower.

They were later informed that the plant is "<em>nymph Lotis, who, running from a base pursuer, had been changed into this form</em>."

The nymp Lotis is the goddess that was trapped in the tree. Therefore, the above option is correct.
