Standardized Test Preview/Practice In this passage, some of the words from this lesson are in bold. Read the passage and then answer the questions. Parents of toddlers often have a difficult time doing basic tasks such as grocery shopping because their children are still learning how to behave in public. Toddlers are known for their histrionic temper tantrums and other improprieties that 5 cause people around them to cringe or complain-particularly people who don't have children of their own and don't remember what it was like to be a child. That is why you see many parents inveigling their toddlers into being quiet with the promise of treats or giving them a toy to play with as they 10 shop. It may help for parents to be as explicit as possible about the rules for their child. For example, just before going to a grocery store, a parent might explain, "We use only quiet voices in this store." However, toddlers are not old enough 15 to fully understand the repercussions of their actions. Their experience of the world is still very limited, and when they are tired and cranky, after being told "no" a lot, they tend to ignore rules. 1. In line 4 , histrionic mean (A) historical. (B) electronic. (C) dramatic. (D) unhelpful. 2. The word improprieties (line 4) most nearly means (A) inappropriate behavio (B) arguments. (C) loud noises. (D) unwise decisions. 3.

Mastering ELA: Reading, Writing, & Speaking

What is ELA?

ELA stands for English Language Arts, which encompasses the study of reading, writing, speaking, and listening. It’s the foundation for learning language skills, improving literacy, and fostering an understanding of literature and composition. In ELA, students engage with texts, analyze language usage, and learn to express themselves effectively in both written and spoken forms.

How many words are in the English language?

It's difficult to say exactly how many words English language speakers use! English is always changing; new words are added, old terms are dropped out of use, and existing words have meanings changed. Though some linguists feel the count could be greater or lower, estimates indicate the language consists of about a million words. Although the Oxford English Dictionary includes more than 470,000 entries, dictionaries differ and they do not fully reflect every slang term, loanword, or scientific jargon that has found common use in daily speech. Your definition of a "word" will determine the actual count: do you count phrases, loanwords, or inflected forms as distinct words? Language is always changing, hence there are much more words than most people would ever need!
