Which term matches the definition 'a conclusion or educated guess that you use your text and schema to create the conclusion'?

• A. Textual Evidence
• B. Inferences
• C. Schema
• D. Resolution

Answer: (B)

Making an inference means using information from the text plus your own background knowledge (schema) to reach a conclusion that isn’t stated outright. This matches the definition because it describes forming an educated guess by combining what you read with what you already know. Textual evidence refers to the actual details in the text used to support a claim, while schema is the background knowledge you bring to reading. Resolution is the ending or solution in a story. So the term that fits best is inference.
