What can we infer after reading the following paragraph? (Remember to look for textual evidence!)

"By the end of November, it looked like my father was right: we were in for a wicked winter. It snowed hard on Thanksgiving Day, maybe nine or ten inches, and then another couple of inches over the weekend. And it was cold. Fifteen on Thanksgiving Day, ten on the Saturday after, and then up to twelve on Sunday - 'a regular heat wave,' said my father."

Orbiting Jupiter, p. 32-33

• Our characters are experiencing a heat wave.

• The narrator's father is sarcastic.

What can we infer after reading the following paragraph? (Remember to look for textual evidence!)

"Clearing her throat, Cinder refocused on the android. She found the nearly invisible latch and opened its back panel. 'Why aren't the royal merchants fixing her?'

'They tried but couldn't figure it out. Someone suggested I bring her to you.' He set the foot down and turned his attention to the shelves of old and battered parts - parts for androids, hovers, netscreens, portscreens. Parts for cyborgs. 'They say you're the best mechanic in New Beijing. I was expecting an old man.'

'Do they?' she murmured."

Cinder, p. 9-10

• Cinder is a technology mechanic.

• Cinder is speaking to the prince.
