This type of question expects you to make valid inferences from the source – sensible suggestions based on details within the source.

Example:

Give two things you can infer from Source A about German attitudes towards the Treaty of Versailles (1919).

Tips:

You will need to state one thing you can learn or infer, and then back up why you think this with a quote (if the source is written) or detail (if it is a visual source). You will need to do this twice.

Don’t ‘over-write’ your answer to this question. If you write pages of material for this, you are likely to run out of time on the longer, essay questions.
