When we infer, we should draw upon three things. Which of the following is NOT one of them?

  1. Our personal experiences

  2. Our knowledge of the world

  3. The author's message

  4. The title of the book

The correct answer is: The title of the book

When making inferences, it is essential to draw upon our personal experiences, our knowledge of the world, and the author's message. The title of the book is not typically a direct source from which to draw inferences. Titles are usually meant to provide a clue or summary of the content rather than specific details for making inferences. The focus should instead be on the content and context within the text to make accurate inferences.
