The correct answer is C. Look for context clues.

Step-by-step explanation

Context clues are a reading strategy to understand a text by the global information it gives without having to stop at words or sentences that are not clearly understood. This technique can also be used when learning another language to understand what we hear or read without needing to know the translation of all the words in a sentence. So, the correct answer is C. Look for context clues.
