Both these factors help create what we think of as a person’s “voice.” The vocabulary words in this lesson explore these different aspects of voice.  \nEXERCISE A  Context Clues  \nUse the context to find the probable meaning of the boldfaced word. Then, look up the word in a dictionary and write its meaning. Make sure to use the definition that matches the context.  \n1.

Recognizing these word roots and knowing their basic meanings will help you to construct meanings for unfamiliar words. The Greek roots path, pathy, and the Latin root pass mean “feel” or “suffer.” All the vocabulary words in this lesson contain one of these roots. Think about how each word can relate to “feeling” or “suffering.”  \nEXERCISE A  Context Clues  \nRead the paragraph below, studying the context of the boldfaced words. On the lines, write each word in the order it appears in the paragraph. Then, circle the word roots—path, pathy, or pass. Finally, from the list at the right, choose the best definition for each word and write the letter of that definition next to the word.  \nWhen our psychology cl","cbCaiotEQhMIdHnL","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiotEQhMIdHnL","pdf",306680,"English","# Lesson 17 Using Context Clues\n## Exercise A: Context Clues\n## Exercise B: Synonyms\n## Exercise C: Context Clues\n# Lesson 18 The Word Roots path, pathy, and pass\n## Exercise A: Context Clues\n## Exercise B: Usage","[{\"question\":\"What types of exercises appear in Vocabulary Power Week 5?\",\"answer\":\"The materials include context-clue meaning questions, synonym matching, and usage/word-choice exercises to test understanding in different ways.\"}]","PSAT-Vocabulary-Week-5 - Lesson 17-18 Vocabulary Power | PDF",25]
