Learning

⚡ The 'Action-Reason' Connection

In English, we often say what happened and then why it happened. This is a great way to make longer sentences for A2 level.

Look at these examples from the text:

  • They killed a man →\rightarrow They wanted their money back.
  • He put a bomb in a hospital →\rightarrow He was sick.

How to do it:

  1. Action: (Someone did something)
  2. The Word 'Because': (Use this to link the two parts)
  3. Reason: (Why they did it)

Example: "He put a bomb in a hospital because he was sick."

🗝️ Word Focus: 'People'

Notice how the text uses specific words instead of just saying "person":

  • Nurse (Job)
  • Athlete (Sport person)
  • Judge (Law person)
  • Gang (Group of bad people)
