The type of context clues used the sentence that can help us determine the meaning of "guile" is an antonym clue, as further explained below.
<h3>What are context clues?</h3>
We can define context clues as pieces of information provided by authors in their text that help us figure out the meaning of new and unfamiliar words. Examples of context clues are:
In the sentence "Andrea's opponent was honest and straightforward, but Andrea used her guile to win the contest," we can determine the meaning of "guile" by using an antonym context clue.
Antonyms are words that have opposite meanings and, in the sentence, "guile" has the opposite meaning of "honest" and "straightforward." We know that because the author uses the word "but" when comparing Andrea to her opponent.
With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer provided is correct.
The missing sentence is the following:
Andrea's opponent was honest and straightforward, but Andrea used her guile to win the contest.

Answer:
Metaphor
Explanation:
A metaphor is defined as "a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable." This means that saying "She *IS* a typing machine" is a metaphor because it is simply not literally possible. The word "is" will be your hint that a sentence like this is a metaphor and not a simile. A simile usually has the keyword "like" in the sentence (For example: She was *like* a typing machine."
The main difference is that a metaphor claims that two things are the same while a simile claims two things are similar (you can remember this by the "simil" in both of these words!).
Answer:
The phrase in this excerpt from Louisa May Alcott's <em>Little Women</em> that best illustrates a mocking tone is: "<em>In her own opinion at least</em>."
Explanation:
This line has a mocking tone because it is <u>ironic</u>; the speaker tells the reader how Amy is an important person, but adds that this is <u>proclaimed by herself</u>. Here the writer uses a mocking tone because <u>it is funny that she proclaims herself as "an important person"</u>. She is the youngest and still has a high self esteem and clearly believes a lot of herself, which, by the way, is a good thing; it means she loves herself and respects her existence, but it does sound funny coming from her own mouth.
