not a very good student. The president of his
college told him he would never be a very good
teacher. Then, he took his guitar and
began travelling around the United States.

Often in your reading you
will
come
across
(遇见)
a difficult new
word. You may be able to read the word,
but,
you still do not know
what it
75__
. One way of finding out
a word’s
meaning is by
looking it up in
a
_76___. Another way is to use
context(
上下文
). You can think
of the context as the “neighborhood” in which a
word “lives”. A word is never
_
77___. It
appears in a sentence with other words, and that
sentence has other
sentences that come
before and after it. These words and sentences are
the context of the unknown word.
A
word’s context often
contains
clues
(
包含提示
)to
its meaning. To find clues, think about the
meanings of
the other words in the
sentence. Look at the sentences that come before
and after the sentence that contains the
word. Do they give you any clues?
Sometimes a writer gives
_78
___ that can help you
understand the word’s
meaning.
Sometimes
you
may
find
a

that
has
almost
the
same
meaning,
or
a
word
that
means
the
_79___,or even a
definition
(释义)
of the unfamiliar word, in the same
sentence or a nearby one. These are all
context clues.
Read the following sentence. Can you
guess from the context what word might fit in the
blank?
We had our picnic in the
shade
(阴凉处)
of a
huge _80___.
Did you guess the missing
word from the context? If you did, you were able
to tell from the other words in the
sentence that the missing word must be
a noun. You could also tell that the word means
something that can give
shade outdoors.
It is something that people might have a picnic
under. All these context clues helped you know
the word.

I recently went to a charity party. At
the end of the visit our host told us that the
following Monday was his
birthday. He
asked if, as a gift to him, we would do something
kind for someone else on that day. I thought that
was a terrible birthday idea!
The following Monday, I saw my
neighbor, a new mother, in the garden with her
baby, I went outside to say
“hello”
to
her.
During
the
talk,
she
told
me,
not
in
a
complaining
way
but
just
as
a
matter
of
fact,
about
the
sleeplessness and the
challenges to get anything done with a baby
followed by. I remembered the charity party
host’s request and said, “Hey! Why
don’t I watch your baby for an hour! I will just
hang out with him here in the
back
garden and you go in and take an hour to
yourself.”
She was so
surprised that she almost cried. “Are you serious?
Would you be able to do that?” ” of course!” I
said. “I’d be happy to!” An hour later
she came outside with a smile on her face. “I have
got so much done!”she
told me, and I
told her that I had sung every kid’s song I knew
and had a good time hanging out with the baby,
too.
And I was so happy to see her
smiling like that.
It was one of the
best presents I’ve ever given, and it has given me
the desire to ask the same from all my
friends this year. I know it will make
me feel great to know my friends are out there
sharing their wisdom and
time with
people who can really use it.
