A). Predict the definition.

Explanation:

The readers are required to go through a number of steps or stages to understand the meaning of the unfamiliar text as then only they would be able to perceive the text comprehensively.

As per the question, the readers are required to 'predict the definition' after examining the context in order to decide the meaning of the unknown or unfamiliar word. The prediction helps in checking whether the predicted meaning(through context clues) goes with the meaning and context of the sentence or not and the readers would eventually be able to reach the actual meaning(as implied or suggested by the reader). Thus, option A is the correct answer.
