Answer: SYNONYMS
Very good! These words are synonyms. The underlined words and the words
that you answered or determined are called CONTEXT CLUES.
Context- refers to the parts of a piece of writing that precede or follow a word
and contributes to its whole meaning.
It is the setting of a word or phrase in speaking or writing that determines or
affects its meaning. It can be pictures, sounds, other words or physical
surroundings.
Clue- a phrase or word provided as a hint to help find an answer.
Context Clues- provide further information about a word or phrase that
helps readers understand its meaning.

There are 4 types of context clues that we can use to help us define a difficult
or unusual word.
1. Synonym or Restatement Clue
2. Definition or Statement Clue
3. Antonym or Contrast Clue
4. Explaination or Example Clue
