please hurry i'm being timed.!!! Identify the text structure of the following 2 statements: Statement 1: At issue are the disapp

earing bee colonies in the United States, a situation that continues to mystify scientists and frighten foodmakers.That's because, according to Haagen-Dazs, one-third of the U.S. food supply - including a variety of fruits, vegetables and even nuts - depends on pollination from bees. Statement 2: Without this army of migrant pollinators paying a visit for three weeks every year, the trees would fail to bear the almonds that are California's most valuable horticultural export. Last year, they earned the state more than $1.9bn, double the revenue from its Napa Valley vineyards. Moreover, 80% of the world's almonds now come from this pocket of the planet. But the supply of almonds in confectionery, cakes and packets of nuts is now threatened by a mysterious malady that is causing honeybees to disappear. a. narrative c. descriptive b. expository d. fact and opinion

The correct answer is option <u>letter B</u> (expository). Both statements present facts about one topic, the disappearing bee colonies in the United States. Expository texts are fact-based texts and their main function is to inform the reader. They are usually found in articles, reports, and essays. In fact, Statement 1 can be found in an article from CNN Money (<em>Disappearing bees threaten ice cream sellers</em>). This type of texts supports the information presented with evidence about the topic in order to fulfill their function. Both statements expose not only information about the bee colonies but also supporting sentences that enrich the text. For instance, the following statement: “Without this army of migrant pollinators paying a visit for three weeks every year, the trees would fail to bear the almonds that are California's most valuable horticultural export.”. The statements are not narrative, since it would implicate telling a story and this is not the case. They are not descriptive, since the texts do not describe the bee colonies or who they disappeared. Finally, the statements are not about facts and opinions, or persuasive, since they do not present any opinion from the author. Only <u>facts</u> are exposed.
