CELPIP Listening: There are only 3 types of questions, Question type 3
3. Inferential questions
Inferential questions are easily identifiable by their wording. When questions use words like ‘most likely’ or ‘likely’, ‘most probably’ or ‘probably’, ‘implies’, ‘can tell’, seem(s), and ‘next’, these tell the test-taker that this is an inferential question – where the answer is not directly stated through content; rather, the test-taker will have to ‘infer’ the answer from the surrounding information.
For example:
What will the man likely do next?
The passage implies that Canadians
Can the woman tell what will happen next?
