Cause and effect is a great way to help a reader follow the author's story. Cause and effect uses a causal chain. This causal chain explains what caused a certain event to occur. It is usually made up of several causes and effects. Cause and effect writing can help the reader to be able to follow the logical timeline of events more efficiently by explaining why and how certain events occurred.
Writers can best analyze a cause and effect paper by making sure that each cause and effect has a direct relationship. This can help the writer to stay focused and not go off on unrelated subjects. This way it is easier to keep the paper flowing well, and easier for the audience to read.
I like how you said "This can help the writer to stay focused..." because it's easy to follow tangents while writing.
ReplyDeleteI agree with both you and Amy! Staying focused with the cause and effects is crucial! Also making sure the chain of events are actually connected through the cause and effects. not just connecting a bunch of random things that have absolutely no correlation.
ReplyDeleteI think you did a good job of a quick overview of Cause and Effect but I would have liked to see some specific examples. Examples help to clarify and it would have helped if you had given me an instance of a causal chain or one cause/effect in a chain ect.
