Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Ephraim shows contentious remarks against the degrading remarks of a certain politician.
identify the type of context clue (CONTENTIOUS) used in statement
Answer:
Restatement/Synonym Clues
Explanation:
Context clues are unknown words in a text, where the reader can understand the meaning through the context of the sentence in which these words are inserted. With this, the reading time and motivation to read are optimized, because the reader does not need to stop reading to look for the meaning of the word.
The phrase shown in the question above uses the word "contentious" as a context clue. This is because through the context of the sentence we can see that this word means something contrary and challenging.
This type of context clue is called Restatement/Synonym Clues, because it uses an unknown word in a simple and easy way.
