We can use these questions to help us infer:

 Why do you think that happened?  I wonder…  What is really going on?  What evidence does the author provide to support_?  What clues did the author give that led to your conclusion?  What is the story beneath the story?  How do you know that?  How do you think the character feels?  How do you combine the clues in the paragraph with what you already know to draw a conclusion?
