🛠️ The 'Action' Pattern

In the text, we see a simple pattern: Who →\rightarrow Does what →\rightarrow Why.

Look at these three paths:

  1. Companies →\rightarrow buy chips →\rightarrow because they get old.
  2. Accenture →\rightarrow buys security companies →\rightarrow to protect plants.
  3. AI tools →\rightarrow do the work →\rightarrow of people.

💡 A2 Tip: 'Because of'

We use "because of" before a thing (a noun), not a full sentence.

  • ❌ Because of it is raining (Wrong)
  • ✅ Because of the rain (Right)

From the text:

  • "Because of wars..."
  • "Because of this..."

Vocabulary Shift

Instead of just saying "big," try these words from the story:

  • Grow (to get bigger over time) →\rightarrow Spending will grow.
  • Fix (to make a problem go away) →\rightarrow Accenture wants to fix this.
  • Protect (to keep safe) →\rightarrow Protect factories from hackers.
