I. The art gallery will be closed for two weeks. II. The art gallery is under renovation.

Correct answer: D. Statement II is the cause and statement I is its effect.

  • A. Statement I is the cause and statement II is its effect.
  • B. Both statements I and II are independent causes.
  • C. Both statements I and II are the effects of independent causes.
  • D. Statement II is the cause and statement I is its effect.

Explanation

The correct answer is Option D: Statement II is the cause and Statement I is its effect. Renovation of the gallery (Statement II) necessitates its temporary closure (Statement I) to ensure safety and proper completion of work. This establishes a clear cause-and-effect relationship. Option A is incorrect because closure does not initiate renovation. Option B is incorrect since the closure is a result of the renovation, indicating a dependent relationship. Option C is incorrect because the closure is not an independent event; it directly stems from the renovation process.

About Cause and Effect

Cause and effect questions examine whether one event produces another, whether both arise from a common factor, or whether their connection is only coincidental. They involve identifying preceding and resulting events, separating correlation from causation, and judging whether the stated evidence supports a direct, possible or unlikely relationship.
