What type of statement does the author make in a Prediction?

  1. "A course of action should definitely be undertaken."

  2. "Something is likely or maybe the case."

  3. "Something definitely is or is not the case."

  4. "The author states what will happen or what is likely to happen in the future."

The correct answer is: "The author states what will happen or what is likely to happen in the future."

In a Prediction, the author states what will happen or what is likely to happen in the future. This type of statement focuses on forecasting outcomes based on available information or evidence. Predictions are not definitive statements about what should or should not be done (Choice A) or affirming certainty (Choice C). Rather, predictions indicate a high probability or likelihood of a particular outcome occurring, which aligns with option D.
