  1. What does 'context clues' mean in reading?

    Answer: Surrounding words and sentences that help define an unfamiliar word

    Context clues are hints found in the surrounding text that help readers determine the meaning of unfamiliar words without using a dictionary.

  2. Choose the correctly spelled word.

    Answer: Accommodation

    'Accommodation' is spelled with double 'c' and double 'm': A-C-C-O-M-M-O-D-A-T-I-O-N. It is one of the most commonly misspelled words in English.

  3. Which sentence demonstrates parallel structure?

    Answer: She likes swimming, running, and biking.

    Parallel structure requires that items in a list use the same grammatical form. 'Swimming, running, and biking' all use the gerund (-ing) form, making them parallel.

  4. What is the denotation of a word?

    Answer: Its dictionary definition

    Denotation is the literal, dictionary definition of a word, as opposed to connotation, which includes emotional or cultural associations.

  5. Identify the type of sentence: 'Close the door!'

    Answer: Imperative

    An imperative sentence gives a command or instruction. It typically omits the subject (you) and uses the base form of the verb, as in 'Close the door!'

  6. Which word best replaces 'said' to show excitement?

    Answer: Exclaimed

    'Exclaimed' conveys excitement or strong emotion. It is a more precise and vivid verb than 'said' when the speaker is excited or surprised.
