I think Yuki Tanaka chose this text structure because it helps explain why we should be alert for tsunamis. I know that the text structure is cause and effect because the author wrote "causing damage." causing is a clue word, which helps us know what the text structure is. Also "trigger tsunamis."

2. I think the author's main purpose fro writing this text was to inform readers on how powerful a tsunami can be. I think the author, Yuki Tanaka, chose this text structure because, when she gives the effect of the tsunamis, which is the tragic things the tsunamis did, readers can see very clearly that they are very powerful and had done bad, tragic, big things. ]]> 2021-03-01 18:27:18 UTC https://padlet.com/carmrom/1qj4ichiz8rqiumj/wish/1254760414 https://padlet.com/carmrom/1qj4ichiz8rqiumj/wish/1254764671 The reason why Yuki Tanaka chose this text structure is because the author's main purpose for writing this text was to explain how Tsunami causes, and how it effects. For example, this author wrote, "Earthquakes cause many tsunamis. Erupting volcanoes or underwater landslides may also trigger tsunamis." Another example is, " They can crush onto land at speeds of 500 miles per hour, causing damage to buildings and injuring or killing animals and people." These examples shows the author's main idea and how the author used the key words of cause and effect, which shows that it's cause and effect. -Jean]]> 2021-03-01 18:28:03 UTC https://padlet.com/carmrom/1qj4ichiz8rqiumj/wish/1254764671
