war Okay there's Nothing to it Time to roll up
- 00:28
our sleeves and do some inferring Sees a definite no
- 00:31
let up for that This one's an inference based on
- 00:34
absolutely nothing like when a politician speaks Alexis never says
- 00:39
that some colonies were more united than others Remember a
- 00:42
basic rule for inferring is to infer based on information
- 00:45
that actually exist It may sound simple but option a
- 00:49
does the same thing Alexis never claims that the colonists
- 00:52
resented having to unite to defeat england even though it's
- 00:56
true that some were still loyal to the mother country
- 00:58
Our guess is that they were afraid that under new

goes a little too far with its inference Well alexis
- 01:07
gives us both the similarities and differences between the colonies
- 01:10
And he doesn't give us a verdict on whether they
- 01:12
were more different or alike Moving on the correct answer
- 01:16
is b the war was a stronger unifying force than
- 01:19
the similarities between the colonies Remember the main point of
- 01:22
passage Yeah the one about how the very similar colonies
- 01:25
united in order to defeat england but then began to
- 01:28
seek the separate government control that they previously enjoyed Great
- 01:33
Anyway the passage strongly implies that the war was the
- 01:35
major unifying force Even despite similarities between the colonies they
- 01:40
tended to pull away from each other after they didn't
- 01:42
have a common enemy to fight war bringing people together 00:01:46.861 --> [endTime] since the invention of war
