Excerpt number one is a expository text. Expository texts are used to explain or describe certain things or events. In this first excerpt, the writer is explaining and giving details about fossils and what they are and how they are formed. In expository texts, readers can often find definitions and explanations about specific themes.



The second excerpt is a persuasive text. Persuasive texts are usually texts whose main goal is to persuade you: the reader; in other words, these texts make you believe or think in a particular way. In this particular excerpt, the writer uses phrases like “Join with them and help preserve the beauty of the world” or “Enjoy a new creative program that allows you to experience a working vacation in the Grampians National Park of Australia” (in these examples, the writer uses specific words to make you believe that you will have some benefits if you do what they say).



The last excerpt is a narrative. Narrative texts are usually stories that are characterized for having connected events, real or imaginary, presented in a sequence of words, like in this specific excerpt. In this excerpt, the writer is connecting events so that the reader can feel that he or she is part of a particular situation within the story.  In this particular excerpt, the writer is neither explaining nor persuading the reader, but telling or sharing a story to them.

In what way did John Brown embody the Transcendentalist philosophy of Emerson and Thoreau? He died for a cause he believed in. H
just olya [345]

Answer: He used any means necessary to fight an unjust law.

In spite of the fact that Thoreau advocates peaceful activity in "Protection from Civil Government," he later upheld the savage activities of John Brown, who executed unarmed expert subjugation pilgrims in Kansas, and in 1859 assaulted the bureaucratic weapons store at Harper's Ferry, Virginia. In "A Plea for Captain John Brown," Thoreau depicts Brown as a "Holy messenger of Light" (R, 137) and "a visionary most importantly" (115) who trusted "that a man has an ideal appropriate to meddle by power with the slaveholder, so as to safeguard the slave" (R,132). In mid 1860, only months previously the episode of the Civil War, he and Emerson took an interest out in the open recognitions of Brown's life and activities.
