I belive my history teacher wrongfull marked my answer

It may not have been the answer your teacher was looking for, but I think they'd have a hard time explaining why it was *wrong*. It definitely deserved more than a 1/10. That was unfair.

I hate this question and answer. I used to write exams as part of my old job. It is really hard to write a good exam because you need to make sure that there is either 1) a clearly correct answer or 2) that you have a grading rubric that can fairly assess a variety of different correct answers. "What can you infer" is a terrible essay question if you are only going to accept one correct response because people can rationally infer all sorts of different things from the same information. (None of this really has to do with English learning specifically.)

I thought you were gonna say you got points off for making errors in spelling and grammar but your teacher sounds like a moron. Your answer is good (despite small errors). From your description I would guess this image was Hazel Bryan, maybe?

This is not an English learning issue, it's a test design/testing/test grading/teaching issue. But I agree with you! especially given how open ended the question is, your response was very reasonable. 

In my opinion, the main part of your answer that was questionable was the part in bold: >from source A i can infer that the black student has faced this before. I inferred this due to the receptive calmness on her face even though onlookers shout or look in disgusts. This implies that such astonishing behaviour has become routine for her. **Intern this perfectly captivates how rude behaviour was just , as long as it was against a person of colour** The emboldened sentence has three problems: 1. You used the word "intern" whereas the phrase you were looking for is "in turn". 2. The word "just" implies "morally correct", not just socially acceptable. Most people would argue that the ill-treatment of black people was not just, even if such behavior was socially acceptable at the time. I suspect this is the primary reason your answer was marked incorrect. 3. "captures" would have been a better word choice than "captivates". Other problems include: 4. "onlookers shout or look in disgusts" should be "onlookers shout or look disgusted", or better yet "onlookers shout or look on in disgust". 5. "receptive" is not a great word choice. I suspect that "relative" is the word you are looking for. Or, this adjective could be omitted altogether. The idea suggested by your teacher that there is one "right" answer to an essay question about what can be inferred from an image is ridiculous. The teacher should have said "a correct answer was..." rather than "the correct answer was...". In my opinion, other than the things listed above, your answer was fine. Assuming that you are not a native English speaker, I would have given you a significantly higher score for that answer.

The 7th grade*

A few things. I can tell what photo you were looking at based on your inference, so that's much better than 1/10. But you did call the public outcry against racial integration "rude," and I think this is an understatement. You also say that white people's protest of racial integration was "just," not that it was *considered* so, nor that it had been considered so previously, nor that it was shifting from commonplace to unacceptable behavior. Also, "intern" is an unpaid worker. "In turn" is the expression you wanted there.

I think it's a silly question, especially when the teacher has a strict marking scheme - they should really give marks for any answer reasonably inferred from the picture, based on the quality of the written English. Which is where your problem may lie. There's a few issues with your written answer that I would presume someone in a class with that kind of question should getting right. For example, "intern" (a person on an internship) should be "in turn", and describing the behaviour as being "just" needs more context (e.g. "seen by the local white population as just", or possibly "...as justified"/"...as justifiable").

Honestly, you deserved a far better score. If the teacher's "correct" answer was *that* simple, you should've gotten a 20 out of 10. I think your answer fit the image (though I can't see it) and was a lot more in depth than the teacher's. If you can (and want to), talk to them about *how* that was a wrong answer and why it was only worthy of 1/10.

Hang in there. There's nothing wrong with your take on the question. The test was designed for people less intelligent than you. Until you are finally perceived as a full grown adult, things like this will happen from time to time. Maybe even after that. It might help to ask yourself if you are overthinking or making something too difficult or subtle for the situation.

The problem here is that your teacher isn't actually a teacher, they're a reciter. They just read the answer from the book and refuse to acknowledge any other options. One of the worst kinds of instructor.

“What political inference …”

How could it be a wrong answer if it's what you inferred? I mean, if you're asked what you infer from something and you say "I infer this", it's the correct answer. It has to be.

Your answer is clearly better than the one the teacher was asking for. Inferences should go beyond the surface level — inferences come from evidence and reasoning, not just from explicit statements. “White people opposed integration” isn’t really “inferred” from an image of white people protesting integration — it’s just what’s directly depicted. Images don’t speak for themselves; there are many possible interpretations and inferences one could make from an image. Your teacher’s question, if it’s as open-ended as you say, should have many right answers.

The question instructed you to form inferences from an image. Yours were excellent. Your answer deserves a much higher mark. You made four accurate and intelligent inferences that you justified and explained. For one point each that's an 8 in my book. If it bothers you, I don't see why asking the teacher courteously for a more detailed explanation of your result would be inappropriate. It might be an opportunity for you to both share some valuable ideas with each other.
