An inference is something you can infer, e.g. make a reasonable, educated guess about it.
Here is a reading example:
Sam had just returned from his missionary work overseas. malaria and Tuberculosis had swept through many villages and cities. Sam would have stayed longer, but the government would not permit him. It was just as well, since he felt bone-tired. At night, sweat drenched his sheets. He felt miserable, but thought it would pass. Worse than being sick, though, was a phone call from his sister. He vowed months ago to never speak to her again, but once again she intruded into his life.
From this we can infer, or try to infer --
- That possibly Sam is a volunteer relief worker. I don't think he is a doctor, or he would guess or suspect why he feels sick and not think it will pass.
- That since malaria and TB were widespread, and now Sam is sick so soon after returning home, Sam likely contracted one or both illnesses. His night sweats and fatigue could point to either illness.
- Some conflict exists between Sam and his sister, bad enough that he wants no contact. Our guesses would be too broad to be inferences.
- We don't know why the gov't would not let him stay. Our guesses would be too broad to be inferences.
