How can context clues help in identifying the meaning of the texts you are reading?.
Nimfa-mama [501]

Readers can benefit from context hints regarding the new word's meaning, structure, and usage from the terms around it.

<h3>What exactly do context cues mean?</h3>

Readers who encounter new or challenging-to-decipher words in a sentence, paragraph, or passage can use context cues to their advantage to assist them understand what those words imply.

The most practical way to broaden one's vocabulary is to learn a word's meaning by seeing it used in a phrase or paragraph because a reader may not always have access to a dictionary when they encounter an unfamiliar word.

Many words can mean a variety of things, and the reader needs to be aware of this. Only definitions that make sense in the context are available to the reader.

Which sentence is CORRECT and does not contain a dangling modifier? A) Feeling anxious, holding still was difficult. B) Screamin
JulsSmile [24]

C) The bookshelves swayed with the weight of their load.

A dangling modifier is a description that seems to be connected to the wrong noun grammatically. Sometimes they are hard to spot since our brains make the connection for us, but if you read the sentence exactly as it is, you will notice it. Option A is wrong because the modifier is "feeling anxious", but we don't know who or what is feeling anxious. Our brains know that it is the person who is having to hold still, but there is no person in the sentence. Option B is not correct because the modifier "screaming" is close to the noun "raft" in the sentence. We know that a raft cannot scream therefore the modifier is not in the right place. Option D's modifier is "missing my family". In the sentence the modifier seems to be modifying dormitory, but this doesn't make sense since a dormitory doesn't have a family or the capability to miss one.
