CONCLUDE QVCIPC

DRAWING CONCLUSIONS Drawing conclusions refers to information that is implied or inferred. This means that the information is never clearly stated. When readers draw conclusions they go beyond the surface details. When the meanings of words are not stated clearly in the context of the text, they may be implied - that is, suggested or hinted at. A conclusion is a decision that readers make after thinking about the information in a text. Since a writer doesn’t always state all of his or her ideas, readers often have to look for clues to understand the whole passage, paragraph, or story. Readers must put together the clues that the writer provides and then draw the best conclusions they can to understand the text. A conclusion should make sense.

DRAW A CONCLUSION Judd likes the color blue. He says it gives him a peaceful feeling. Judd bought paint for his living room. What color paint do you think Judd might have bought?

READ THE PASSAGE BELOW: Scientists have been learning more about ears. Until recently, most people thought both ears did the same work. However, studies have now shown that the right and left ear process sound differently. If you are listening to someone speaking, your right ear is responding. If you are listening to music, your left ear is more attuned. Researchers think this new information is important in helping people with hearing loss. For example, a student with hearing loss in the right ear might need more help in school because the right ear is critical to learning situations. From this paragraph you can conclude: A. that people really don’t need two ears B. the left ear is important to musicians C. he right ear is larger than the left ear D. he left and right ear are interchangeable
