Inference:
means working it out/ reading
between the lines
Question 2 is all about
inference.

Where are they? Why is their toe bandaged?
I think this is a child
who got blister on their
toe so had to wear flip
flops.
Maybe it was the hottest
day of the year.
Perhaps they were at a
water park, so didn’t
notice they were
burning.

1. When I woke up, there were branches and leaves all over the garden.
Now let’s
transfer these
skills to text
The person has woken up and seen something in their
garden that was not there before. ‘All over’ suggests the
garden is covered!
Probably morning time

In Question 2 of Paper 2 English Language there
are two main skills assessed.
1. The ability to make
clear inferences from
both texts
2. The ability to compare
differences or similarities
in the texts.

Now let’s try a question
![Page 18: English Language Paper 2 Section A - Schudio · out/ reading between the lines Question 2 is all about inference.

You will need to use
evidence (quotations) from
BOTH of the sources
The question will have a
very specific focus.
You must keep to that.
Use details from both sources to write a summary of
what you understand about the differences between
their descriptions of the countryside.
Sum up

differences

Source A Source B
Although the ‘wind is furious’, the
writer is able to see past this to
appreciate the countryside,
especially the ‘beautiful’ daffodils.
The writer literally cannot see the
countryside due to the “driving
rain”; therefore does not appreciate
the “scenery”. She writes “What
scenery?”
Describes the countryside to be
alive with nature such as flowers that
“danced” and “laughed”
Describes the countryside as dull
and somewhere that she wants to
escape,because she does not want
to “stay much longer”.

Now to add the inference
In Source A, although the ‘wind is furious’, the writer is
able to see past this to appreciate the countryside,
especially the ‘beautiful’ daffodils. The fact that she
perseveres on her walk despite the wind and the
“threatening, misty morning” implies that Wordsworth is a
nature lover, which is further supported by her
knowledgeable listing of all of the flowers she encounters
like “woodsorrel flower, the anemone,” and so many more.

Now you try to add the inference
for Source B
On the other hand, the writer of Source B literally cannot
see the countryside due to the “driving rain”; therefore
does not appreciate the “scenery”. She writes “what
scenery?”

Now try writing a full comparision
of your own.
You can use this framework to help (but you do not have
to):

I infer…………
Comparing phrase such as ‘however’

Dorothy
Wordsworth’s
famous poet
husband, William
Wordsworth,
wrote a poem
about the
daffodils that
they had seen.

Sum up Similarities, so will
need appropriate
connectives
The question will have a
very specific focus.
You must keep to that.

Sometimes in the exam you will be given two texts and asked to
compare their similiarties… but they will seem very different.
If this happens, then you can find something similar about them,
but also explore the differences within that similarity.

Single

customs
Bird is treated more
kindly than might be
expected and is
brought “weak tea and
a “slice of bread” by
the “rough” men
Bag “snatching”
seems common as
advice about it is
given.
Bird learns about horse
riding in Truckee but is
then surprised that she is
told to “Ride your own
fashion”
It states that

Inference: look at the following pictures of cars. ... knowledgeable](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050101/5f40bdf7fd2baa30283d1a02/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Both texts seem to present one of the main challenges of travelling alone as the potential threat of attack
or physical violence.
Source A provides advice for single travellers such as “try to walk attached to a group of people” and
“make sure someone always knows where you are”. From this I infer that if such advice has to be offered,
then attacks must be fairly frequent and by advising people to appear not to be alone, single people must
be more vulnerable. Furthermore, having to inform people “where you are” has an ominous tone
implying that you must do this to ensure that others will notice if you do not arrive safely, or are abducted
from this place. Similarly, Source B begins with a sense that Bird is vulnerable as a lone female traveller
in this “rough Western hotel” which is “crowded with men”. By mentioning “Western” Bird could be
implying that the hotel and the “men” in it are violent outlaws like the cowboys from the Wild West and
crowded makes it seem that she is outnumbered and potentially in danger. However, rather than being
attacked, Bird is treated quite well, with a man giving her “cold, weak tea”. Although “cold” and “weak”
may seem insulting, the fact that it is “11.30pm” and a “bar-room” where they probably do not serve tea
implies that the men have gone out of their way to accommodate her.
