Conclusion = a smart guess about ideas that are NOT stated in the text Generalization = a broad statement that is true MOST of the time KEY WORDS TO LOOK OUT FOR: so & often

Conclusion? Generalization? Analyze/Evaluate!!!

Conclusion or Generalization? Most rabbits are soft. Since there is mud on the carpet and mud on Jason’s shoes, I think Jason got the carpet muddy.
