Answer:
<u>D. "I must think over things for myself and get to understand them."</u>
Explanation:
Living by what other people say, or think and what books say is living a lie because it is not based on what the character really thinks or wants.
Thinking thinks over by herself is being truthfull to the ideas and wishes she can built, and no longer by what other people tell her to do. Being more than a wife and a mother, means there is more to Nora in life than those things.
Question:
Ephraim shows CONTENTIOUS remarks against the degrading remarks of a certain politician.
Identify the type of context clue (CONTENTIOUS) used in the statement above.
Answer:
The type of context clue left here is called Inference Clue. This type of clue prompts the reader to reach a conclusion on the meaning of the word by use of reason, logic and or evidence.
Explanation:
Context clues are pointers left by a writer in a sentence or a paragraph that helps the reader comprehend the contextual connotation of old, new or difficult words.
In the statement above, CONTENTIOUS is the "difficult" word. When we read the entirety of the sentence we can see that it was a response to action: that is, the <u>degrading remarks of a certain politician.</u>
Suffice it to say that based on the above, an avid reader would estimate that on the balance of probabilities, Ephraim's action was an equally corresponding and action of rebuttal.
It's is worthy of note to state that there, besides the one already mentioned above - <em>inference clue, </em>that there are various other kinds of <em>context clues. </em>They are:
- Definition Clues
- Example Clues
- Synonym Clues and
- Antonym clues.

Alex was the best friend anyone could have… we spent many years together and I became attached to her. But out of nowhere Alex got a non-operable brain tumor, it was cancerous. I couldn’t believe it, my best friend fell prey to an inevitable death. I shed one too many tears to count, to this day I can’t even believe it. Alex was the type of person to help you without expecting anything in return. She was such a nice person who never bad mouthed anyone, she managed to smile in the darkest patches of life… I truly wish her glimmering smile could light the dark for me once again…
