⚡ The Logic of 'Cause & Effect' (Moving from A2 to B2)

At the A2 level, students usually use 'so' or 'because' to connect ideas. To reach B2, you need to use Connecting Adverbs. These words make your writing sound professional and academic, like a news report.

🔍 The Shift in the Text

Look at how the article avoids saying "so" repeatedly. Instead, it uses these sophisticated bridges:

  1. "As a result of..." →\rightarrow Used to show the direct consequence of an action.

    • A2 style: The police found a body, so they arrested a man.
    • B2 style: As a result of this operation, one person was arrested.

  2. "Consequently" →\rightarrow A formal way to say 'therefore' or 'because of this'.

    • A2 style: He was hurt, so the police arrested a 22-year-old.
    • B2 style: Consequently, a 22-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder.

🛠️ How to apply this

When you move toward B2, stop starting every sentence with the subject. Start with the result using these markers:

Instead of...Try using...Effect
So / And→\rightarrow ConsequentlySounds authoritative
Because of→\rightarrow As a result ofConnects complex ideas

Pro Tip: Notice that Consequently is usually followed by a comma (,) when it starts a sentence. This is a key punctuation mark for B2 learners to master.
