Inference

21 February 2012

I suddenly get my headache today so I’m not going for my BEL260 Class. I want to apologize to Miss Zu as I’m not coming to her class. Sorry!!! By referring to my classmate, they are learned on how to make an inference.

Infer: By using a clues and experience to make guesses
a. The act or process of deriving logical conclusions from premises known or assumed to be true.
b. The act of reasoning from factual knowledge or evidence.
c. Something inferred.


Example:

Mandi thought everyone had forgotten  her birthday.  This morning at the breakfast table, no one had even wished her a "Happy Birthday!"  No one mentioned it all day long--not even her mother, and mom never forgot anything.
         She had noticed her sisters whispering  at lunch.  She thought that was kind of 
  rude!  Her mom sent her to the store for a loaf of bread in the middle of the 
  afternoon.  Mandi didn't know why she had to go.  Why couldn't her sister Sarah go?  
  Sarah was older.  And since when was bread such an emergency?
         She grumbled to herself all the way to the store and back.  It was bad enough 
  everyone had forgotten her birthday, she also had to run everyone's errands!  As she dragged herself into the kitchen, she was startled to hear, "SURPRISE!" 
         They hadn't forgotten after all.
Were you able to INFER that Mandi's family had planned a surprise party?
What were the clues?
