Eleven years ago the Payette was my first river. Floating its South Fork was part of my guide-training course. I remember paddling in a thunderstorm, terrified, down class IV Death's Door Rapid where the greenish-brown water boiled and churned, heavy with the spring run-off. I passed my test, barely, and that started a love affair with the water and with the Payette. Question Which inference can be made from reading this passage? Answer options with 4 options

1. The author is afraid of the Payette.
2. The author only likes to raft the Payette.
3. The Payette holds a special place in the author's heart.
4. The author thinks Death's Door Rapid is overrated.

3. The Payette holds a special place in the author's heart.

Explanation:

An inference is a conclusion made based on pieces of evidence. In stories, not everything is told explicitly, and we need to make these conclusions on our own.

Based on the given passage, we can conclude that the Payette holds a special place in the author's heart. He was afraid when he rafted it during a thunderstorm, but that experience didn't make him permanently afraid of it. In fact, he fell in love with water and Payette especially. He doesn't state that he likes to raft only the Payette or that the Death's Door Rapid is overrated.

This is why the third option is the correct one.
