Imagine a family of farmers in the Neolithic Age. They are a multi-generational family living together on a large farm. They have bees, chickens, and other animals and crops that keep them fed. They have several shelters that are sturdy. Last year, however, floods came and took many of their large animals and rained out their crops. Some of the family died from starvation. They are replanting this year.

What cost and benefit of farming is shown in this situation?

The words that would help a reader analyze any text, regardless of the topic, are general academic vocabulary. General academic vocabulary refers to the words that are commonly used in academic contexts and are necessary for understanding and interpreting various types of texts. These words are not specific to any particular subject but are essential for critical thinking, comprehension, and analysis. When encountering a new text, focusing on general academic vocabulary can aid in deciphering the meaning, identifying key points, and evaluating the author's arguments or claims. It is important to note that subject-specific vocabulary, scientific vocabulary, and supporting vocabulary may be relevant for analyzing specific types of texts or topics, but they may not be applicable to all texts.
