I Like to Eat Green Vegetables

I like to eat green vegetables such as broccoli and green beans. Broccoli can be eaten raw or cooked. Cooked broccoli tastes great with butter and lemon on it. Other green vegetables, such as lettuce, taste great in salads and do not have to be cooked.


The context clues such as, is/are called, and is/are known as work differently from the other context clues we have looked at. The words we want to know the meaning of are found AFTER these context clues. The meanings of the words are found IN FRONT OF the context clues. These context clues work backwards!
