Answer 1

I don’t have the excerpt you’re referring to, so I can’t determine which statement is supported. Please paste the excerpt and I’ll pick which inference follows and explain why.

If helpful, here’s how I’ll judge each option when you provide the text:
- “Clara’s mother was also daring as a young girl.” — look for an explicit statement or anecdote about the mother’s youth or behavior that implies she was daring.
- “Clara’s mother was angry at Clara for ice skating.” — look for words or actions showing the mother scolded, punished, or expressed anger about Clara skating.
- “Clara blamed the boys for her injuries.” — look for Clara’s words or thoughts assigning responsibility to the boys.
- “Clara’s mother blamed the boys for her injuries.” — look for the mother saying the boys were at fault or confronting them/others about their role.

Paste the excerpt and I’ll analyze it.
