The statement which uses evidence to support an interpretation is, By avoiding eye contact with Mr. Singh, Sam indicates that she may be lying

Answer: Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Evidence is the proof or a confirmation about something to be true. Interpretation on the other hand is an act of explaining the meaning of something. So when one uses an evidence to support an interpretation, it means that they’re providing a proof by giving an explanation as to why something happened.

In the sentence, ‘By avoiding eye contact with Mr. Singh, Sam indicates that she may be lying’ we come to know that ‘avoiding eye contact’ is an evidence which supports the interpretation of ‘lying.’ Why she was avoiding eye contact? Because she was probably lying.

The other statements are simply a statement without any interpretation or evidence.
