    When you want to find the definition of a word, which resource do you use?   - ProProfs

    When you want to find the definition of a word, which resource do you use?  

    • Almanac

    • Dictionary

    • Encyclopedia

    Correct Answer
    A. Dictionary
    Explanation
    When you want to find the definition of a word, the most appropriate resource to use is a dictionary. A dictionary is specifically designed to provide definitions and explanations of words, making it the go-to resource for understanding the meaning of a word. While an almanac and an encyclopedia may provide additional information about a word, they are not primarily focused on providing definitions. Therefore, a dictionary is the best resource for finding the definition of a word.

    Correct Answer
    A. The illustrator
    Explanation
    The illustrator is the person who draws the pictures in a book. They are responsible for creating the visual elements that accompany the text and help bring the story to life. While the author writes the words, the illustrator adds the visual storytelling through their drawings or illustrations. The publisher is not directly involved in the creation of the pictures, but rather focuses on printing and distributing the book.

    Explanation
    A book's call number refers to its address or location on the bookshelves. It is a unique identifier assigned to each book in a library, allowing library users to easily locate and retrieve the book they are looking for.

    • Glossary

    • Index

    • Table of Contents

    Correct Answer
    A. Table of Contents
    Explanation
    The table of contents is a section in a book that lists the different chapters or sections in the book, along with their page numbers. It provides an organized outline or roadmap of the book's content, allowing readers to easily navigate and locate specific information within the book. The glossary, on the other hand, is a list of terms and their definitions, while the index is an alphabetical list of topics or keywords with page numbers indicating where they can be found in the book. Therefore, the table of contents is the part of the book that provides information about the different chapters or sections.

    Explanation

It provides a detailed and comprehensive overview of the person's life, including their personal experiences, achievements, and significant events. Unlike an almanac, which is a reference book containing statistical and general information, and a dictionary, which is a reference book containing definitions and explanations of words, a biography focuses specifically on the life story of an individual.
