                               Before reading this chapter, I did not know about the types of context clues.
 I didn't even know how to use them. But, this chapter gives a brief and small introduction about context clues and its types. Also, the author has given examples to illustrate and give an idea of how these context clues are used in a given topic. I want to know more about the context clues in detail or rather knowing in detail, I would like to practice some passages which include the context clues.I learned that there are various ways to identify context clues either by finding an antonym of the word or by using logic and reasoning skills. Also, a word can be defined by a brief definition or synonym, or including examples that help to explain or clarify a word.
