Question

One strategy for learning a new word is to guess its meaning based on context clues. Read this sentence: You will not be able to perceive any difference in the cells until you observe them under a microscope. What common words might be substituted for the general academic word perceive in this sentence? A make, do B see, notice C choose, select D feel, experience

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

In the sentence You will not be able to perceive any difference in the cells until you observe them under a microscope perceive means observing any difference in the cell.

Now since difference in cells can be determined when viewed through eyes using a microscope.

hence, here perceive means to see or notice

Option B is correct

Option A is incorrect as by reading the sentence we do not get any essence of making or doing something. Like wise option C is also incorrect

Option D could have been correct if the word microscope would not have been used. Hence, option D is also incorrect
