00:23 - 00:28
the reasons or causes for something and then discusses the
00:28 - 00:36
results or effect thistles, one of the most common forms
00:36 - 00:39
of organization in academic writing.
00:39 - 00:41
It's a type of explosive story writing.
00:43 - 00:48
Sometimes the whole essay is going to be about causes
00:49 - 00:55
on effects because we write five paragraph essays, Um, you
00:55 - 00:59
condense side do I want to do to causes and
00:59 - 00:59
one effect?
01:01 - 01:04
Do I want to do one cause and two effects
01:05 - 01:08
Anyway, the cause or causes should go first.
01:12 - 01:16
Other times, especially for short exam essays, we can decide
01:17 - 01:20
to do only one off them on.
01:20 - 01:25
Lee causes three causes in our case or Onley effects.
01:25 - 01:26
Three effects.
01:32 - 01:37
Here are some examples of topics with different content.
01:41 - 01:41
Topic one.
01:42 - 01:47
Explain the causes off World War two, which is the
01:48 - 01:48
Second World War.
01:49 - 01:56

01:56 - 01:58
the effects of global warming.
01:59 - 02:05
So on lee, the effects or Topic three.
02:06 - 02:11
What are the causes and effects off diabetes, you could
02:11 - 02:17
decide on two causes and one effect as usual.
02:17 - 02:23
If we're writing effects, you should probably mention some causes
02:24 - 02:25
in your introduction.
02:28 - 02:33
If you are writing causes, you should probably mention a
02:33 - 02:35
couple of effects in your conclusion.
02:40 - 02:43
So here is the structure that we will use for
02:43 - 02:44
this type of Essex.
02:45 - 02:52
It's called the block structure, and it's very clear all
02:53 - 02:57
the causes are listed first, as I said before, and
02:57 - 02:59
all of the fence are listed afterwards.
03:01 - 03:04
Do more so in the block structure.
03:05 - 03:09
You have the first paragraph, the introduction with your thesis
03:10 - 03:14
statement mentioning what the topics will be.
03:15 - 03:21
Three causes or three effects or to causes.
03:22 - 03:26
And one effect, or one cause and two effects.
03:29 - 03:30
Rough, too, will be caused.
03:31 - 03:40
One paragraph three will be caused, too before will have
03:40 - 03:43
a little bit of a transition sentence to go from
03:43 - 03:48
causes to effect and then discuss effect effect one or
03:48 - 03:52
the only effect that you're gonna mention finally, Burger five
03:53 - 03:53
will be the conclusion.
04:00 - 04:02
In the next video, we're gonna see some cause and
04:03 - 04:09

04:10 - 04:15
