To infer is to take a critical look at what you are reading and make an assumption based on your own experiences.
We find clues in the text and can make judgments, to answer these
questions, based on what we know from our experiences.
First let’s consider Lucy.
What do we see?By reading the picture, we can see how the author drew her.
What do we know?We know that
Lucy is a “youth”. We also know that
when someone says that someone
else “never listens,” It’s an
insult.
Because Lucy wouldn’t want to insult herself, we can infer that
Lucy thinks she is more
Mature than Linus and Snoopy.
What can we infer from this passage?
She stumbled down the road, not sure what made her car veer like that. The water was running down her face and dripping off her hair. She suddenly saw the lights of another
car. She was sure they would be able to help her.
