Answer 1

Answer: INSTRUCTION USING THE CLOZE PROCEDURE.

Commonly used in examination and tests, the close procedure is a form of written examination in which candidates are required to provide WORDS that have been OMITTED from sentences, thereby demonstrating their KNOWLEDGE and COMPREHENSION of the text.

This gives students/candidates the ability to use context to define words.

For example

Options; Romantic, chivalrous, foolish, cheesy.

Depending on the understanding of the candidate, it can be any of this answer, but using context and if this statement has been culled from a longer text, then the answer will be given according to context.
