Context Clues

Multiple-meaning words are words that have different meanings depending on how they are used. Use context clues, or the words around a multiple-meaning word, to figure out which meaning is used.

Directions Read the following passage. Then answer the questions below. Look for context clues that show the correct meanings of the multiple-meaning words as you read.

ts hard to find rich soil in the city, so most city people cant grow their own food. Instead they go to the supermarket. Each kind of food is always in the same place. That way shoppers can go right to

the items they need. Then they rush home and store the food in their kitchen so it wont get spoiled. Its not good to shop when youre hungry. Hungry shoppers buy everything they see!
