In cause and effect reading the reading was helpful as well the exercises because the reading connects the topic to claims that we have read about the entire semester. The reading explains there is a “very strong relationship” between the two claims and that normal conditions are normally assumed. Normally conditions are obvious claims that are there and do not need to be stated to say a cause and effect have a strong/ valid relationship. The exercises give you a taste how it would be approached in a regular situation. Then sometimes it is easier to understand it from the examples/ exercises than the actual writing. Such the first exercise gives a broken down example of particular and general cause and effects. The actual exercise is easy to follow because it shows a real example instead of the Spot barked and Dick woke up. Then after that exercise it is easier to connect it to “the police car‘s siren got me to pull over” which can be seen as a general because a police siren will make anyone to pull over to the side.
