Context & meaning 1
When we see a new word (in a reading passage, for example), we can often
work out what it means, or get an 
idea
of what it means, by looking at the
context in which it appears (for example, what is the 
passage
about, what is
the 
sentence
about and what information comes before and after the word?).
Identifying the meaning of a word from its context is an especially useful
skill in the IELTS Reading Test.
1 Look at these words, and answer the questions which follow.

1.
Without seeing them in a sentence, do you know (or can you guess) what
the words in the box mean?
2.
Now look at the words in the passage. Can you guess what they mean
now? In your own words, explain what they might mean.
The remarkable success of Simon Weber’s book on owls, bats, foxes and
other 
nocturnal
creatures, 
A Call in the Dark,
is probably not surprising in
view of the popularity of his recent television series, ’Night Prowlers’. It is
a very thorough book by an author who is an expert in his field and who has
clearly done a lot of research. In addition to describing his own findings, he
cites
the research carried out by others, including Wright and Lawson in the
1990s, and discusses where they might have gone wrong with some of their
assumptions. He writes 
coherently
on the subject, beginning by looking at
basic facts before discussing progressively complex theories, without once
confusing his readers. This is a remarkable 
feat,
considering the complexity
of the subject and the science that is often involved.
