The answer is:

d. making educated guesses as to the meaning of difficult words.?

Context clues are hints that an author provides to help illustrate a difficult or unusual word. They may appear within the same sentence or in a nearby sentence in relation to the word they refer to. Besides, an educated guess indicates an assumption based on knowledge and experience, which is therefore likely to be correct. As a result, context clues aids readers to make inferences about unknown vocabulary.

The author explains that he is a man of integrity in order to show why the school's  reactions were excessive and wrong.

Answer: The author explains that he is a man of integrity in order to show why the school's  reactions were excessive and wrong.

Explanation:

Vonnegut defends his integrity to show that having his book and his entire work deemed as evil was wrong. He presents his actions after the burning of his books, doing "absolutely nothing to exploit the disgusting

news from Drake," as evidence of his integrity. Furthermore, he describes himself as a loving father and an honored veteran to better support his argument.

Rewrite the sentences placing the adverbs given in bracket at appropriate positions 1. He signed all the papers of the agreement
Ket [755]

Answer:

He readily signed all the papers of the agreement.

or

He signed all the papers of the agreement readily.

Explanation:

"Readily" is an adverb of manner, and it can be placed in two different positions in a sentence structure. When used in a mid-position, right before the verb, an adverb of manner is a bit less emphasized:

- She easily baked the cake.

When used in an end-position, the adverb gains more emphasis:

- She baked the cake easily.

Examples of adverbs of manner are: readily, easily, quickly, beautifully, happily, etc.

Having that in mind, we can easily place "readily" in the following positions:

He readily signed all the papers of the agreement.

or

He signed all the papers of the agreement readily.
