How can you use a cause-and-effect paragraph?

Answer 1

A cause and effect paragraph relates one or more cause to one or more effects.

So & so fell riding her bike. Effect: She skinned her knee. Her mother gave first aid.

So & so went to the doctor. Effect: She learned she had the flu. The doctor told her what to do.

You just went to the store looking for a certain type of food and you find that they just ran out. Effect 1: You buy something else for dinner. OR Effect 2: You wait till the next time they stock the food that you were looking for and eat something else today.

Answer 2

A cause and effect paragraph would be a paragraph where you choose one cause and explain all of its effects or where you choose one effect and explain off of the causes.
First, choose either a cause or an effect. Then make a list of ideas:

• Cause: list every effect that will occur because of this cause. Look them up if you don't know them!
• Effect: list everything that will cause this effect to occur. Look them up if you don't know them!
  

Here is an example to show you how this works:

Here is my Cause and Effect Paragraph using this information:

According to the lastest information, WikiAnswers is now the second largest Q&A website. Hitwize reports that this website has had over 149 million global page views per month in 2009. The site has had over 47 million unique people from all over the world per month.

Answer 3

Cause and effect means that one event causes or creates another one.

You can write this in two different ways:

• write your topic sentence and list everything that happens because of this.
• write your topic sentence and list everything that causes this.

Make each item of your list (whichever list you choose to write) into a complete sentence, and you have your paragraph!

Example: There are many things that might cause you to have trouble finding an answer to your question on WikiAnswers. You might have typed an incomplete sentence instead of a good question. You may have misspelled one or more of the terms when you wrote the question. You might have forgotten to specify the subject of your question - if you just wrote "he" or "she" instead of giving the person's name, for example - so that it is hard to figure out what the question is asking. You may have put the question into the wrong category. And finally, you might just have asked a question that nobody knows!
