Answer 1

The story "The Fun They Had" is inferred because readers have to deduce information from the context.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the story "The Fun They Had", the information is primarily inferred rather than explicitly stated. Option b) Inferred, because readers had to deduce some information from the context, is the correct answer. While the story provides some details, the readers have to make judgments and draw conclusions based on those details. For example, the story does not explicitly state how Margie feels about her school, but readers can infer it from her actions and thoughts.
