An accurate understanding of the meaning of an example sentence cannot be separated from the example's surrounding context. In instruction fostering comprehension of an example sentence, an accurate understanding of the sentence's meaning must occur in combination with its background context. In this study, advanced learners were asked to rank JLPT N1-level textbook example sentences and reconstruct their contexts. It was shown that examples that are easy to comprehend have high empathy to learners, and there is strong immediacy between understanding of the meaning of the sentence and evocation of its context.
