stringency
context clues- on the same paragraph they included like amounts of money ($199) and "direct to consumer". With this clues on hand gave me the idea of somewhat of a shortage in money.
sentence- Our healthcare throughout the country has reached the point where stringent measures will have to be taken for the majority of patients.
treacly
context clues- Part of the sentence is delivering a speach and part of it is "redezvous with destiny". It shows that the tone is somewhat sentimental.
sentence- The film my girl is a treacly story of childhood friends.
guffaw
context clues- How the sentence is written in a way of turning it around making an ironic sense of humor.
sentence- The comedian has a funny lines making the audiences guffaw.
