Answer 2

The correct answer is D. Look beyond the details and information provided

Explanation:

Infer refers to the process of concluding or deducing something from specific information, this implies an inference is a guess or deduction the reader does with the information of a text or source, thus an inference is not explicitly provided in the source but it is a deductive process the reader does mainly by  analyzing the text and connecting details and information to create new ideas  that are not given in the text but that derive from it. In this way, it can be concluded inferring implies looking beyond the details and information provided to guess or deduce ideas that derive from the text but are not explicitly given.
