LEXICAL CLOZE
 
Hi dear teachers! I need your help! I want to explain my ss the meaning of the title "lexical cloze" and I find it quite difficult. I know what the exercise implies, but how can I explain the title?
thanks in advance

Well, LEXICAL means �relating to words �, and CLOZE is a type of exercise (consisting of a portion of text with certain words removed).
So, it �s an exercise where you must COMPLETE THE GAPS (in sentences) WITH WORDS.

That must do the job, I believe.
Regards,
Bruna

I agree with Bruna and just a little piece of information:the word lexical comes from the Greek word lexis which means word.
