ENGLISH- Q1, Module-1

Reading comprehension is vital in going through your tasks in this module as it's important to all aspects of life as it is today. The good news is that one of the most important reading comprehension skills, understanding vocabulary, can be easily mastered using a tool always available to you: context. You can understand any new vocabulary term using only the context around it. By looking at the elements of a passage, an unknown vocabulary word reveals its meaning. For this reason, you'll never have to memorize every word--you only have to remember how to use context clues.

Understanding how various types of context clues work can help you to understand difficult vocabulary words, even those brand new to you. A text may be chock-full of words you can't completely crack, but you shouldn't let that discourage you. Inside the passage, where all the juicy tidbits of vocabulary clues lie, you can figure challenging words out.
