The key with inference questions is that you need to treat the answer choices as potential conclusions.

Ask yourself whether that potential conclusion (the inferred statement) can be supported by the passage. Do we have info in passage that would support making that statement?

This contrasts with "assumption" which is an unstated premise which may support a conclusion ALREADY presented in passage. No need to look for a new conclusion for "assumption" questions.
