Meaning from Context

What are we learning today?

You will use a short conversation to find the right words and meaning.

Explanation

• Words around a gap help you choose the missing phrase.
• A phone call starts with Hello? Then the caller says who they are: Hi, it's Raj.
• Read the line before the gap and the line after it.
• Choose the phrase that fits both sides.
• Words like level and stars can show that people talk about a computer game.

Examples

1. Hello? Hi, it's Raj. How are you?
2. Someone's at the door. Can I call you back?
3. Sure. Talk to you later. Bye.

Remember!

• Choose a phrase that makes sense.
• Read the next line, too.
• Do not guess from only one word.
