I. OBSERVING Look at the picture. Could you infer anything about the man in the picture?

You can probably infer or guess all of the following: His age The type of job he has Where he is now Where he is going

There are some clues that help you guess the answers to these questions All of these clues encourage you to make inferences about the man in the picture

II. READING In reading, the evidence for your inference consists solely of words

An inference is a process of reaching a conclusion about something from known facts and evidence

In other words, inferences are the conclusions a reader draws about the unsaid based on what is actually said

Reading Tips: 1. Make sure your inferences rely mainly on the author’s words rather than your own feelings or experience

Reading Tips: 2. Check to see if you can actually identify the statements that led you to your conclusion

Reading Tips: 3. Check to see if your inference is contradicted by any statements in the paragraph. If it is, it is not an appropriate or useful inference
