9When you meet an unknown word in a basic foreign-language reading text, which first strategy is usually most efficient?
A.Skip the whole text immediately
B.Use surrounding context and word form clues before panicking
C.Translate every word with a dictionary first, ignoring sentence sense
D.Assume the word is always a proper name
