Final Answer:
1. The explorers probably felt scared and panicked when they noticed the volcano erupting.
→ I made this inference because they screamed “RUN!” and raced toward safety — those are actions people do when they’re afraid and trying to escape danger.
2. Beads of sweat were dripping down their bodies because it was hot and they were hiking hard up a volcano.
→ I made this inference because hiking uphill is tiring, and volcanoes are hot places — both make you sweat.
3. The explorers likely arrived at the volcano by helicopter.
→ I made this inference because they reached a helicopter to escape, and it’s common for scientists to fly to remote or dangerous places like volcanoes.
