Thermometer pills tracy wilson
1 over the past ten years more than two dozen athletes have died from the medical condition known as heatstroke. heatstroke occurs when the body’s internal temperature becomes so elevated that its cooling system begins shutting down. who is most at risk? surprisingly, it is younger athletes. they often either do not recognize or ignore the warning signs until it’s too late. to make matters worse, children’s bodies are much less efficient than adults at cooling themselves. a promising new product hopes to end the all too common heatstroke trend. it is called a thermometer pill.

what strategy would be best to determine the meaning of heatstroke as it is used in paragraph one of the passage?
a. connotation
b. context clues
c. prior knowledge
d. structural analysis]
sorry this was long! tia!

B. context clues

Explanation:

All four options are useful and valid to determine the meaning of heatstroke in the text, however, the context clues strategy is the one that will give you a more accurate idea of the meaning of the word. This strategy consists of looking at the surrounding information of an unknown word in order to infer its meaning; and since the text is very descriptive about what this term is, by reading it, we can see all the context clues and learn that heatstroke is a "medical condition" and that "it occurs when the body’s internal temperature becomes so elevated that its cooling system begins shutting down".
