I will explain in the easiest way possible.

Context clues are clues you find by reading the sentence. It can be words directly next to the word you are looking for, or even at the beginning or end. You are trying to figure out the meaning of scrimmage. The words that help you understand scrimmage are easy to find. During the <em>scrimmage, </em>the players took more chances than usual because they knew the final outcome wouldn't affect their record.  From that we can assume that scrimmage could mean either a non-official game or a practice game.

I hope this helps!

Which one of these verbs should not be used in the comparative or superlative degree?
Lana71 [14]
I think it would be 'D. Absolute' as nothing is 'absolutely' more perfect than something else and nothing is 'absolutely' perfect either.

Till I remember, it was evening time. i and my few friends were enjoying and wandering, away from our homes by the slope of hill
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Story on the title "never go anywhere without telling anyone about it".

Explanation:

<h2>      Never go anywhere without telling anyone about it.</h2>

Till I remember, it was evening time. I and my few friends were enjoying and wandering, away from our homes by the slope of hillside into that barren land. It was the month of April. Nobody had expected that what we experienced the next- A black mountain of clouds started gathering and in no time, it started raining cats and dogs. We had not expected that to happen, that too, in an instant.

Running as fast as our legs will carry us, we began frantically looking for any safe shelter to keep out of the downpour. But considering we had ventured to the barren side of the hill, it wasn't a complete surprise to not find any sheltering spot. We had to scamper down to the biggest tree with its branches spreading out. Though it wasn't exactly a safe spot, it nevertheless kept us safe to a certain extent. But as it doesn't seem like the rains have any intention of stopping, we decided it's better to get drenched and go home as it is getting dark too. If we decide to stay longer, we would be in even greater trouble.

Feeling cold, drenched, weak, and scared, we walked back, not even able to run for we were all so tired. It took us almost an hour to get back to the village, and everyone was so shocked to see us. When we reached our homes, our parents were so relieved. They had been so worried and were even about to organize a search party to get to us if we hadn't turned up in the next hour. And the matter was serious, for we hadn't told anyone when we went out so they were all thinking we had been to one of our friend's place.

The teaching that we got that day will always remain with us for one specific reason. Our parents had no knowledge we had ventured to the very place where there had been so many deaths in the past year. We had also known and heard of the murders but we didn't know it was in that very same barren lands. The land had been a curse for so long that no one even dared to venture out. Added to that, we didn't inform anyone when we went out. So, it was a huge wake-up call for us children to always inform our parents whenever we had to go anywhere.

From that day onwards, we learned a valuable lesson to not venture so far out, away from the village, and also to always let others know where we are going or if we are going out. It is always better to let others know about our whereabouts than regretting it later after things get worse.
