Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Ephraim shows contentious remarks against the degrading remarks of a certain politician.
identify the type of context clue (CONTENTIOUS) used in statement
Answer:
Restatement/Synonym Clues
Explanation:
Context clues are unknown words in a text, where the reader can understand the meaning through the context of the sentence in which these words are inserted. With this, the reading time and motivation to read are optimized, because the reader does not need to stop reading to look for the meaning of the word.
The phrase shown in the question above uses the word "contentious" as a context clue. This is because through the context of the sentence we can see that this word means something contrary and challenging.
This type of context clue is called Restatement/Synonym Clues, because it uses an unknown word in a simple and easy way.
Answer: Daisy is Nick's second cousin, once removed.
Explanation:
Nick, Daisy and Tom are characters from <em>The Great Gatsby</em>, a novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald.
Nick knows Daisy and her husband, Tom, because Daisy is Nick's second cousin, once removed. Moreover, Tom and Nick went to college together at Yale, but Nick was not very fond of Tom back then. Nick says that he spent two days in Chicago with them, shortly after the war ended. Nick and Daisy are not very close, but are reunited at the beginning of the novel, when Nick moves to West Egg.
