Reading Comprehension 03 - Cause and Effect 3
Read these two sentences:
‘Anamika has fallen sick.’
‘Anamika will not go to school.’
From the two sentences it appears that Anamika will not be attending school because she has fallen sick. From these two sentences we can establish a cause-effect relationship. What is the reason for Anamika not attending school? The answer is that she has fallen sick and hence is unable to attend school. Thus, we see that a cause-effect relationship has been established.
The characteristic of this relationship is that the cause of something always happens first and the effect is what happens next as a result of the cause. In the above example we find that Anamika first became sick (cause) and the result was that she will not go to school (effect).
