d. counting numbers
the third puzzle piece to making an inference is - *
a. make an educated guess
b. write a summary
c. copy a quote
d. skip confusing parts

Explanation:

• For the first question, making an inference requires evidence. "Clues from the text" provide that evidence. Feelings are subjective and not reliable for objective inferences. Guessing without reason and ignoring details are not valid methods.
• For the second question, "Schema - what I already know" (prior knowledge) helps in connecting text clues. Random guessing is baseless. Quoting the author is just restating, not inferring. Counting numbers is irrelevant.
• For the third question, after having text clues (B in first question) and schema (A in second question), the next step is to "Make an educated guess" (combine evidence and prior knowledge). Writing a summary, copying a quote, and skipping confusing parts are not part of the inference - making process.

Answer:

B. Clues from the text
A. Schema—what I already know
A. Make an educated guess
