Why Practice Statement-Assumption / Inference?
- Assumption questions test what the author takes for granted, not what is stated
- Inference questions test what definitely follows from the statement
- Each set has 10 assumption and 5 inference questions, with 15 questions in 12 minutes
Concepts You Will Master
- An assumption is implicit if the statement would not make sense without it
- Advice, appeals and announcements assume they will have some effect
- Extreme words ('only', 'all', 'definitely') are rarely implicit
- An inference must definitely follow, without outside facts
- 'Not all' is not the same as 'none'
Preparation Tip
For an assumption, ask: "Would the statement make sense if the speaker did not believe this?" If not, it is implicit. For an inference, ask: "Is it definitely true from the statement alone?"
