Read this short story. Last night I baked a dozen cookies. I left them out on the kitchen table to cool. Just before I went to bed, I saw a little mouse under the table looking at me. She looked hungry! I turned off the light and went to bed. When I came down in the morning, one of the cookies was gone. Another was half-eaten. “Oh well,” I thought, “I guess she wasn’t that hungry.”
What do you think happened? How do you know? Did the author tell you? You made an inference. "
After reading it he says "That's not an inference. That's a hypothesis."
