Question

Read the paragraph.

my bff , Hillary's grandparents were very kind and also a little eccentric. I didn't mind their unusual behavior because it made the evening exciting and memorable. For example, Hillary's grandparents stood up several times during dinner to sing songs. Dinner at my house is very boring by comparison.

Which context clue is most helpful in determining the meaning of the word eccentric?

their unusual behavior

were very kind

boring by comparison

stood up several times

Answer 1

Answer:

choice A, their unusual behavior

Explanation:

it shows that eccentric is unusual, the question asked for the thing that showed the MEANING of the word not what Hillarys Grandparent did was eccentric, Choice D was wrong. Choice C, which was "boring by comparison" was not showing the meaning of the word. Them being kind does nothing to do with the Grandparents being eccentric.
