Context clues<span> are hints that an author gives to help </span>define<span> a difficult or unusual word. The </span>clue<span> may appear within the same sentence as the word to which it refers, or it may follow in a preceding sentence. The choices cannot be found here. So, it would be best to first understand what are context clues.</span>
The two meanings for find would be
1. To unexpectedly realize something.
2. To unexpectedly realize the existence of something.
Example of definition 1: I walked inside to find a dog waiting in my room. (Realized the dog was a dog in the room.)
Example of definition 2: I never thought I would find aspartame in diet drinks. (Realized the existence of something, in this case aspartame)
I know it isn't much of a difference, but I'd say the homonym for find would be definition 2.
Answer:
It is either "B" or "D"
Explanation:
It might be "B" because they are talking about the American and British armies and how the Americans had a smaller army than the British.
But I also say "D" because, they are talking about the differences between communication 700 years ago and how it changed to now.
I think it's "D", that's what I would go with.
Hope I could help you.
The main idea of the paragraph is that women should be credited for much more during the prehistoric times that they are at the moment. We only get the picture of them being rather irrelevant at the time which is obviously not true, based on this excerpt. The paragraph is quite feminist, meaning that it is shedding light on actual history and the role of women in such a society which not much is spoken about in contemporary analyses.
They were the ones who invented gardening, as well as pottery and weaving. The reason why they did this was because they often stayed 'at home' taking care of children, so they had time to do other things as well, while men were out hunting and providing for the family in other ways. Thus we have solid proof that women were far more creative and responsible for various things than they are credited for now.
