General knowledge

Exam: inference questions in reading comprehension ask what can be concluded but is not stated directly; keep apart infer (the reader concludes) and imply (the writer suggests).

परीक्षा में reading comprehension के inference प्रश्न पूछते हैं कि क्या निष्कर्ष निकलता है पर सीधे नहीं कहा गया; infer (पाठक निष्कर्ष निकालता है) और imply (लेखक संकेत करता है) को अलग रखिए।
