rudeness,Section B,11/104,When you are making a guess about the meaning of a new word in your reading,you can use context clues to help you.You might not be able to guess the exact meaning of a new word every time,but you may be close enough to get the meaning of the sentence containing the new word.The following are six context-based clues that are useful for you to figure out the meaning of a difficult or unfamiliar word.,Presentation of the skill,Finding out word meanings,12/104,Finding out word meanings,Presentation of the skill,5 context-based clues,Synonyms,Antonyms,Definition or explanation,Examples,Root words,prefixes,and suffixes,13/104,To understand an unfamiliar word,you can look for its synonym in the context,which may be a familiar word to you.Words like“similarly”,“as well as”,“both and”,and“likewise”show that synonyms or comparison clues are likely to follow.For example:,Presentation of the skill,Synonyms,14/104,Taking out the garbage was an onerous task;,likewise,washing dishes can be a hard job.,Prof.Smiths lectures are so riveting.,Similarly,Prof.Wilsons classes are very interesting,too.,The meaning of“onerous”is likely to be similar to“hard”as indicated by the signal word“likewise”.And the meaning of“riveting”is likely to be similar to“interesting”as indicated by“similarly”.,Presentation of the skill,Synonyms,15/104,Antonyms,You can also use a familiar antonym to determine the meaning of an unknown word.So,it is helpful to locate the antonym of the unknown word.Connecting words,such as“however”,“yet”,“on the other hand”,“instead of”,“but”,“while”,and“although”are likely to introduce something opposite in meaning to what is previously said.For example:,Presentation of the skill,16/104,Antonyms,My sister is extremely neat and tidy in appearance,while,she is slovenly in doing housework.,Some business disputes can be settled out of court;,on the other hand,others require litigation.,The meaning of“slovenly”must be contrary to“neat and tidy”as indicated by“while”.And the word“litigation”most probably means“be settled in court”with the contrastive clue“on the other hand”.,Presentation of the skill,17/104,Definition or explanation,Definitions tell us directly the meaning of the unfamiliar word.The clues preceding the definition are or act like linking verbs.Examples of these verbs include“be”(“is”,“are”,“was”,“were”),“mean”,“involve”,“be called”,“i.e.”,or“in other words”.,Presentation of the skill,18/104,Definition or explanation,You may also find explanation about an unfamiliar word in the context,information youre you are familiar with and set off by commas,parenthesis,brackets,or dashes.,For example:,A,souk,is an open-air marketplace in an Arab country.,Metamemory,the knowledge about ones memory processes,is helpful in helping us store and recall information.,Presentation of the skill,19/104,Examples,You can guess the meaning of an unknown word with the help of the example(s).Examples are usually introduced by the following words and phrases:“such as”,“such”,“for example”,and“like”.For example:,Potentates,such as kings,queens,and emperors,are very powerful and wealthy people.,The word“potentate”must be people like“kings,queens,and emperors”.,Presentation of the skill,20/104,Root words,prefixes,and suffixes,Knowledge about word formation can also help you guess the meaning of an unfamiliar word.In other words,if you have a good command of the common prefixes and suffixes,you would be more likely to figure out the meaning of an unfamiliar multi-syllabic word by analyzing its word formation.,Sometimes the best way to illustrate how to do something is by,counterexample,.,Gently swing your right arm in a,clockwise,direction.,Presentation of the skill,21/104,Root words,prefixes,and suffixes,Sometimes the best way to illustrate how to do something is by,counterexample,.,Gently swing your right arm in a,clockwise,direction.,If you know the prefix“counter-”means“the opposite of something”and the suffix“-wise”means“in the direction of”,then it would not be difficult for you to work out the meanings of“counterexample”and“clockwise”.,Presentation of the skill,22/104,Beside,common sense and knowledge can be one additional skill.,You may also use your common sense or your knowledge about the real world to determine the meaning of an unknown word.This is very important,especially when none of the above five clues can be found in the sentence.For example:,Presentation of the skill,Common sense and knowledge,23/104,Common sense and knowledge,The angry driver shouted,vehemently,during his fight with the other driver.,If industrial waste water is discharged directly into a river from chemical factories without treatment,the river will be,contaminated,and people and animals that drink the river water could be poisoned.,Presentation of the skill,24/104,Common sense and knowledge,We know what“angry”means,and we know how people feel when they fight.So we can guess that the word“vehemently”in the first sentence has something to do with strong emotion or intense feeling.In the second sentence,according to our knowledge,industrial waste water without treatment can cause pollution,so“contaminate”most likely means“pollute”.,Presentation of the skill,25/104,Reading skill practice,A.workers,B.citizens,C.Students,D.tourists,1.,It is generally thought around the world that the,inhabitants,of large cities are ruder than their fellow,citizens,from smaller towns or the
