Use context to determine the correct meaning of the word “scale” in the sentence.

Justin was in such a hurry to scale the rock wall that he almost forgot his safety gear.

What does “scale” mean in the sentence?

weigh in
a measuring device
climb up
the skin plate on a fish

Respuesta :

Answer:

Climb up

Explanation:

Using scale as a verb means you are climbing up something.

(If you 'scale' something, you climb up it.)

Answer: climb up

Explanation: scale in this context is a verb, since Justin is the subject and the verb is what he is doing. This eliminates two of the answers. I just plugged in “weigh in” and in the context u can’t weigh in a rock wall. So climb up is the answer. Hope this helps.
