On Monday 28 March I studied unit 9 "Problem and Solution ". I studied that " Problem and Solution was pattern of organization where information in a passage was expressed as a dilemma or concerning issue (a problem) and something that was ,can be, or should be done to remedy this issue (solution or attempted solution)."
I studied that "as cause and effect passages do not propose solution but rather just explain why or how they happen".

Finally , I though that problem about teen pregnancies was easy. But I thought studied about using solution markers was difficult.
