Inference with paragraphs

​Anthony would be spending the summer with his uncle, James Anderson. Uncle James lived in a small red, wooden house. All around the house were pretty green fields fand some fences. Animals lived in some of the fields and ate grass all day. In other fields, tall plants were growing. It was very quiet at Uncle James' place, and Anthony liked it right away.

​Where will Anthony probably be spending the summer?

Inference with paragraphs

​Yesterday, Kiana went to see a movie. She laughed throughout the entire movie. The people who sat next to Kiara did not laugh at all. They seemed unbothered compared to her. When Kiara got home, she was excited to tell her mother about the movie. Then, she told her siblings that they should go to see the movie.

What can you infer from this paragraph?
