in a story and the result or consequence of that event or action.

a story

from reading the text and can answer straight away. Questions
to show that you have read/understood the text.
Inference

the text and your own background knowledge.
Prediction -
Questions focused on using what you know from the text to make a
sensible guess about what will happen later on in a story.

thinking question such as writing sentences using words/phrases
from the story, describing something from the story, explaining
what might happen next, describing a real-life event that's connected
to the story, asking an opinion on the story or character
