Q & A

What is the main topic discussed in the script?

The main topic of the script is the use of cause-and-effect relationships in English sentences, specifically focusing on connectors used to link causes and their effects.

What are cause-and-effect sentences?

Cause-and-effect sentences show the relationship between an event (the cause) and its result (the effect). The sentence structure typically connects the two parts using specific connectors.

Can you give an example of a sentence that demonstrates cause + connector + effect?

An example of this structure is: 'Because of the storm, we cannot go to the beach.' Here, the cause is the storm, and the effect is not being able to go to the beach.

What is the structure for a sentence where the connector comes before the cause?

The structure would be 'Connector + cause + effect.' For example, 'Owed to her kindness, Miyake helped me.' The connector 'owed to' precedes the cause, 'her kindness.'

What is an example of a sentence with cause + verb + effect?

An example of this structure is: 'She was late because of her exhaustion.' The cause is 'her exhaustion,' and the effect is 'she was late.'

What connectors are typically used in cause-and-effect sentences?

Common connectors include 'because,' 'since,' 'due to,' 'as a result,' and 'owed to.' These connectors help link the cause to its effect.

How does the connector 'because' function in cause-and-effect sentences?

'Because' is used to introduce the cause in a sentence. For example, 'He passed the exam because he studied hard.' The connector 'because' links the cause (studying hard) with the effect (passing the exam).

Can you provide an example of a sentence that uses 'as a result' as a connector?

An example is: 'They went to the seminar as a result of their efforts.' The connector 'as a result of' shows that the seminar attendance was a consequence of their efforts.

What is the importance of connectors in cause-and-effect sentences?

Connectors are important because they clarify the relationship between events, making it easier for the reader or listener to understand how one event leads to another.

What does the formula 'cause + effect + connector + reason' refer to?

This formula refers to a sentence structure where the cause and effect are stated first, followed by the connector and the reason. For example, 'They canceled the meeting due to the weather.'
