Cause and Effect Essay Advanced ESL

What is a Cause and Effect Essay? Cause---- Effect---- Reason Result Cause or Effect essays are not to be about both causes and effects. On the contrary, in a short essay of 350-400 words, it is important to focus on writing about either the causes of something or the effects of something, not both. The reason for this is that it is simply not wise to try to cover too much information in a short essay.

Example– Air Pollution in China (Cause) Pre-Writing: Listing The causes of air pollution in China ____________________________

Air Pollution in China (Effect) Effects of Air Pollution in China __________________________________

How to Organize Your Ideas Health Effect _________________________________ 2. Economy Effect 3. Life style effect __________________________________ You can organize your ideas and put them into 3 categories

Reading Read the sample essay and tell me how did the author organize the essay
