Question

Which paragraph shows a cause and effect relationship to present the information? 1. My parents bought a lovely new house. It has five bedrooms. It is two-story and made of red brick. The bathrooms are large with marble flooring. The house is absolutely stunning. 2. Crocodiles are members of the reptile family. They are classified this way because they are cold-blooded. They also have scales, which is a trait of this family of animals. In addition, they live in swamps. Crocodiles are reptilian creatures. 3. Playing too much tennis can cause tendonitis. Tendons connect muscles to bones and they can become swollen due to excess activity. This is called tendonitis. Tennis combines jumping and running which puts stress on tendons and makes them swell. Tennis is often the cause of tendonitis. 4. All of the oranges in the cart are bruised. It's only logical then, that I can't find an orange that isn't bruised. Then, since you can't make orange juice from bruised oranges, I may as well conclude that I won't be making orange juice tonight. Since I won't be making orange juice tonight, I suppose I won't have any with my breakfast tomorrow. If I can't have orange juice, I won't want to eat my breakfast. Because the oranges are bruised, I won't be eating any breakfast tomorrow.
