CHAPTER 6: Cause & Effect
Small Conversation :
Hi Ray! What are you doing?
Hey Jane! I am reading an article on smoking.
Smoking! Why?
For presentation in Science class.
So tell me what you learnt about smoking.

1. Smoking weakens the lungs due to which there is a build up of poisonous substances.
2. Smoking causes heart attacks, strokes, ulcers.

It is! If we do not educate people about the effects of smoking, there will be a lot of people suffering from these diseases.
You are right. We have to do it.
