Restatement.

Explanation:

Context clues are hints to the meaning of an unfamiliar word (literally hidden in plain sight) in a paragraph, essay, articles, or passage. Context clues helps to tell the meaning of unfamiliar words or words having more than one meaning attached.

In English language, there are mainly four (4) types of context clue and these are;

1. Definition clues: definitions or explanations about a word is literally stated for the reader. Thus, meaning are found directly using dashes or commas.

2. Contrast clues: gives hint about the meaning of a word by stating its opposite or antonyms meaning by using words or phrases like however, but, unlike etc.

3. Inference clues: specific clues or hints are not given. To determine the meaning of a word, readers would have to use their knowledge or intuition to decipher the meaning of words.

4. Restatement clues: gives hint about the meaning of a word by stating its synonyms, such as in simpler terms.

Hence, restatement is a type of context clue that requires you to use other words or phrases with similar meanings to determine the meaning of a word.

Read this excerpt from through the looking-glass by lewis carroll. "you might make a joke on that,” said the little voice close to her ear: "something about ‘you would if you could,’ you know.” "don't tease so,” said alice, looking about in vain to see where the voice came from; "if you're so anxious to have a joke made, why don't you make one yourself? ” the little voice sighed deeply: it was very unhappy, evidently, and alice would have said something pitying to comfort it, "if it would only sigh like other people! ” she thought. but this was such a wonderfully small sigh, that she wouldn't have heard it at all, if it hadn't come quite close to her ear. the consequence of this was that it tickled her ear very much, and quite took off her thoughts from the unhappiness of the poor little creature. what question should a reader ask to clarify what is happening in the story? who or what is the voice speaking to alice? when will alice attempt to share a joke? what secret will alice share with the new character? why do whispers tickle the listener?
