To answer these questions, we need to analyze the given information and understand the concepts of inferences and supporting evidence.
1. Which statement about inferences is true?
The correct answer is "They cannot be proven entirely by the text." An inference is a conclusion drawn based on information that is implied or suggested rather than explicitly stated in the text. While it can be supported by the text, it may not be proven entirely.
2. Which conclusion can be drawn based on the information in the sentences?
The correct answer is "Building homes underground was necessary in Coober Pedy." This conclusion can be drawn from the information that winters were cold, summers were hot with flies, and there were no trees for building. Thus, building homes underground provided more stable temperatures.
3. A student infers that black opals are more expensive than other opals. Is the inference supported by the information in the sentences?
The correct answer is "Yes, because the sentences state that black opals are rare." The sentences mention that black opals are among the rarest, indicating their rarity and desirability. Since the cost of an opal is determined by rarity and desirability, it can be inferred that black opals are more expensive.
4. Which piece of evidence best supports the inference that local libraries provide more than reading materials to their communities?
The correct answer is "Many libraries offer programs that help people find and attain jobs." This evidence supports the inference that local libraries provide more than reading materials because it shows that libraries go beyond providing books and offer services that assist people in finding employment and improving their job situation.
