1. Drawing inferences means to use facts and details to draw conclusions that are not specifically stated. In this case, it involves using information provided by the author to make educated guesses about what they are trying to convey.
2. To make an inference, readers should use evidence from the selected text. This means using specific details, observations, or hints provided by the author in the text to make logical conclusions about what is being implied or suggested.
3. In the sentence describing Mr. Edmunds, the author's word choice reveals that he enjoys drinking tea. This can be inferred from the description of him delighting in the warmth and pleasant aroma of the tea. There is no direct mention of him drinking tea with every meal, drinking from his favorite cup, or feeling cold.
4. Based on the sentences describing Jason and Melody traveling along the gravel road, it can be inferred that the road conditions were bumpy and rough. This can be deduced from the phrases "gravel road" and "car swayed back and forth, crunching along." There is no evidence to support the road being smooth and wet, driving on a private road, or needing repairs.
