A context clue is literally a hint that writers give in their texts and that help to understand and define difficult words or concepts. This means that the author uses the context around a word or concept to help the audience understand it. These clues are used by writers to literally define a word without having to refer to a dictionary and usually they are interspersed in the same sentence where the difficult term lies; or they can be spread out throughout a previous sentence or paragraph. There are, in general, 6 types of context clues; these are: Definition or explanation clues, restatement or synonym clues, antonym clues, inference clues or general context and punctuation. The correct answer is D: Images. They are the only ones that are not considered context clues.
