Question

Select the most appropriate meaning of the underlined word. I cannot see without my glasses.

• A. A device used to correct the defects of vision
• B. A container
• C. A fragile object
• D. An unbreakable object

Answer 1

Answer:

A. A device used to correct the defects of vision

• 1. Contextual Clue: The sentence mentions, "I cannot see without my glasses." The verb "see" provides the necessary context. Since the subject requires the object to enable or improve their sight, "glasses" must refer to spectacles or eyewear. 2. Logical Definition: While the word "glass" can refer to a material or a drinking container, the plural form "glasses" used in the context of physical ability (vision) specifically refers to a pair of lenses set in a frame.
