Answer:

Context clues are hints that an author gives to help define a difficult or unusual word within a book. The clue may appear within the same sentence as the word to which it refers or it may follow in the next sentence.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example: Synonym context clues offer words nearby with the same meaning: Synonym: The annual bazaar is scheduled for the last day of school. It's always a fun festival.
