Correct answer: make a new prediction based on the new information.

Reason: Good readers update their thinking when new information contradicts their predictions. They use the new evidence to form a revised prediction, which helps comprehension. Listing reasons can be useful for reflection, and occasional targeted rereading may help, but the immediate effective strategy is to revise the prediction.
