    In this case you will be looking for a place in the sentences to identify how the word "lore" is being used as "a body of tradition."

    You can practice finding out if something is an answer by inserting different words given the definitions of the word "lore." Use "tradition" in this case.

    Example: Jasmine's grandmother passed all of the family's traditions on to the younger generation.

    That makes sense. You try the next sentence.

    "In his personal library, the retired gardener stored his handmade volumes of plant tradition."

    This does not make sense - so you scratch that idea.

    Finally, "The lizard's green tradition ... "

    Still doesn't make sense, so you find that the first sentence is the correct choice.

    Answer: "Jasmine's grandmother ..."
