English

3 0

Karen Thompson states that fear can actually guide us and instead of calling it fear, we should call it stories, because everyone is the readers and authors of their fears.

Explanation:

Karen Thompson Walker, one of the best selling author in one of her TED Talk 'What Fear Can Teach Us' propsed that fear can actually help us to prepare for the future events and make us more calm if we work at to listen to our fear.

Karen states that the right kind of fear can push our imagination. She says that a person should learn to reflect on thier fears rather than reacting. Every fear teaches us something, Karen wants us to ask this question as to 'Perhaps what this fear is teaching me?' and we have halfway conquered our fear.

Please help me choose<br><br>Which three excerpts would best be characterized as expository texts?
Naddika [18.5K]

Expository text gets to the point rather quickly. It is intended as education rather than just narrative text. An example of narrative text is the Excerpt by Charles Dickens which is meant to draw a picture of what this woman was like.

So the last one is out.


The first one talks about volcanoes and how they are classified. That's one of your answers if you are trying for brevety and education.


I think the second one would also be a choice. It is trying to show you the nature of anxiety and what causes it. You learn a lot about symptoms from reading it. It's quick and to the point. Expository? Yes.


I don't think four is exactly expository, but I might be wrong. It sounds too argumentative to be completely expository. It wouldn't be my first choice even though I have read Twain a great deal, beginning in my teens. He always has something pointedly funny to say about the human condition. So it's hard for me not to include him in anything. It's not exactly narrative either. The tough ones are three and four.


Three tries to tell you what it would be like to live in another country. I think it likely is the choice you are looking for.


Answers 1,23. I could be wrong, so if you have a different answer in mind, go with it.
