a- Implied meaning
Imply means to express, suggest, or show something without stating it directly: A friend's gruff
manner would imply that she's in a foul mood.
the verb imply comes from a Latin word meaning "enfold or entangle" but has come to mean 

"to hint at." Youmight imply something that you don't want to outright say if you're
 feeling copy. if you don't call someone bayou don't want to chat.
b- Making inferences
making an inference involves using what you know to make a guess about what you don't know
or reading between the lines. Readers who make inferences use the clues in the text along with
their own experiences to help them figure out what is not directly said, making the text personal
Helping students make texts memorable will help them gain more personal pleasure from
 reading,
read the text more critically, and remember and apply what they have read.
c. Denotation and memorable            

 Denotation is the literal meaning, or "dictionary definition," of a word. Denotation
is defined  in   contrast to connotation, which is the array of emotions and ideas.
suggested by a word in addition to its dictionary definition. The words "house" and
 "home," for example, have the same denotation—a building where people live—

 does not. A word's denotation does not include any of the subjective or emotional
 associations that are part of that word's connotation.

describes explicitly.
Words carry cultural and emotional associations or meanings, in addition to their literal
meanings or denotations
