Re: Need help with RC inference questions [#permalink]

­Hi helpmegmat,

Inference questions in Reading Comprehension can indeed be tricky because they require you to go beyond the text to understand the implications of what's stated. Here’s a strategy you might find helpful: always ensure your inference is directly supported by the text, even though it's not explicitly stated. Think of it as connecting the dots between what is said and what is meant.

One effective approach is to summarize paragraphs as you read to keep track of the main ideas and supporting details. This makes it easier to spot connections and implications when you answer the questions. Additionally, practice questioning the text actively: ask yourself what the implications of certain statements could be or how different pieces of information might relate to each other.
