Answer:

C. If you don't know every word in a passage.

Step-by-step explanation:

Readers use information from text to decipher unfamiliar words. They examine clues from the selection to define words and phrases. Context refers to the words that come before and after a word. Sometimes when an author is introducing a concept, she will use synonyms to help readers make connections.
