Step-by-step solution for: The Catholic Toolbox: Spelling and Vocabulary Worksheets
Let’s solve this vocabulary matching task step by step.
We have 7 words on the left and 7 definitions on the right. We need to match each word with its correct definition.
---
Step 1: Look at Word #1 — “Change”
What does “change” mean? It means to become different.
Look at the definitions:
- “To calculate approximately.” → That’s for “estimate”
- “Related in appearance or nature; alike though not identical.” → That’s “similar”
- “To speak with another or others about; talk over.” → That’s “discuss”
- “A following of one thing after another.” → That’s “sequence”
- “To become different.” ← This matches “change”!
- “Having the same quantity, measure, or value as another.” → That’s “equal”
- “To state, tell about, or make known in advance...” → That’s “predict”
✔ So, 1. Change → To become different.
---
Step 2: Word #2 — “Discuss”
“Discuss” means to talk about something with someone.
Look again at definitions:
- “To speak with another or others about; talk over.” ← Perfect match!
✔ So, 2. Discuss → To speak with another or others about; talk over.
---
Step 3: Word #3 — “Equal”
“Equal” means having the same amount, size, value, etc.
Definition: “Having the same quantity, measure, or value as another.” ← Yes!
✔ So, 3. Equal → Having the same quantity, measure, or value as another.
---
Step 4: Word #4 — “Similar”
“Similar” means alike but not exactly the same.
Definition: “Related in appearance or nature; alike though not identical.” ← Exactly!
✔ So, 4. Similar → Related in appearance or nature; alike though not identical.
---
Step 5: Word #5 — “Sequence”
“Sequence” means things happening one after another.
Definition: “A following of one thing after another.” ← Match!
✔ So, 5. Sequence → A following of one thing after another.
---
Step 6: Word #6 — “Estimate”
“Estimate” means to guess or calculate roughly.
Definition: “To calculate approximately.” ← Yes!
✔ So, 6. Estimate → To calculate approximately.
---
Step 7: Word #7 — “Predict”
“Predict” means to say what will happen before it happens.
Definition: “To state, tell about, or make known in advance, especially on the basis of special knowledge.” ← Perfect!
✔ So, 7. Predict → To state, tell about, or make known in advance, especially on the basis of special knowledge.
---
Now let’s list all matches clearly:
1. Change → To become different.
2. Discuss → To speak with another or others about; talk over.
3. Equal → Having the same quantity, measure, or value as another.
4. Similar → Related in appearance or nature; alike though not identical.
5. Sequence → A following of one thing after another.
6. Estimate → To calculate approximately.
7. Predict → To state, tell about, or make known in advance, especially on the basis of special knowledge.
