The description you're looking for that aligns with a specific type of reasoning in relation to an argument is:
B: an ideal conclusion based on text evidence and reasoning.
This option indicates that an inference is drawn from evidence provided in the text, supported by logical reasoning, which is the hallmark of a well-constructed inference.
If you need clarification about the other options:
-
A refers to an inference based on details not found in the text, which does not fit the standard definition of inference as it typically relies on existing text.
-
C seems to involve emotional responses without a logical basis, which typically falls outside the realm of logical inference.
-
D describes a statement that is directly supported by the text, which is not an inference but rather a direct interpretation or paraphrase of the text.
