Basic Concepts

In a nutshell: Sentence completion tests your ability to use context to choose the right word.

## Filling in the Blanks Sentence completion questions require you to choose the best word or words to complete a sentence so that it makes sense. ## How to Tackle Them - **Read the whole sentence:** Get the full picture before looking at answer choices. - **Look for clues:** Words like 'although', 'because', or 'however' hint at the meaning. - **Predict before peeking:** Try to guess what kind of word fits before checking choices. ## Applying This Skill This skill helps you write better sentences in essays and emails, making your communication clear and sharp.

  • Filling in 'The chef is famous for his ___ dishes' with 'delicious'.
