If [the animals] could speak, they would plead for a better life. It is wrong not to give them one.

This passage represents what type of support?



A It is evidence because it is a fact that can be confirmed or proven.

B It is evidence because the author is an expert on animal behavior.

C It is an inference based on what the zookeepers have told the author about the animals.

D It is an inference based on the animals' agitated, unhappy body language.

Answer 1

D because while animals cannot tell us with words how they feel, body language can speak louder than words.

Answer 2

The answer is D. You cannot have solid evidence of that since plants and animals cannot communicate. However, you can infer quite a bit from an animal's body language.
