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.

50 Points + Brainliest! Very Simple.
PIT_PIT [208]

     I arose from my bed and drew the crisp air into my lungs. No one enjoys mornings as much as me. After dressing myself in only the coziest of pajamas and drinking the freshest chamomile tea known to mankind, I prepared for possibly the most exciting part of my average day: breakfast. I hopped to the kitchen, stretching out every groggy muscle along the way like a cat after a long nap, and pried open the doors to the pantry. In front of me stretched my most prized collections: granola, oatmeal, cereals, waffle and pancake mix, and any fixings any sane human could imagine. I snatched up the newly opened box of my favorite kind of Special K and pranced to the long-time home of the milk jug. The light from the fridge framed my face, brimming with a smile, and the produce and condiments smiled back at me with glee. That joy came to an abrupt end, as the weight of my ill-prepared morning came crashing down like an anvil onto my cheery reality. Searching frantically, I grasped and threw anything in the way of my targeted item, but the large, clear milk jug was no where to be found. My morning was in ruins, and the smile fell from my face into pieces beneath my feet, just as did my cereal as made a poor attempt to pour it back into the slim cardboard cereal box. My perfect morning was in tatters, and I crawled back into bed.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

b. He wants to rebel against the law and show off his superior gifts.

Explanation:

Harrison is an authoritarian man who wants everyone to submit to his will without question and to fulfill all his whims. He is a man who wants to impose his power to be superior to all, and he wants to control those who are weaker and have no power to stand up to him. Harrison wants to rebel against the law and show his superior gifts, so he calls out abusive and authoritative phrases like the ones shown in the question above.
