The excerpts that function and can be characterized more accurately as expository texts are the first three excerpts: Excerpt 1, Excerpt 2 and Excerpt 3. These excerpts are centered around the communication of knowledge, of information which the reader may not have. They are exposing these 'new' information with short and regular sentences that strive to be as clear as possible. It can be discussed if the Excerpt 5, taken from Charles Dickens' <em>Great Expectations</em>, is an expository text, seeing as it has a very nuanced description; but it would be more precise to consider that excerpt as a descriptive text, as a type of text related to narrative fiction.
President Delano Roosevelt’s “Quarantine” speech was a
speech he gave that indicated a desired shift from the United States policy of
isolationism to a somewhat passive policy of interfering—ignoring or quarantining
aggressor nations. In his speech he
proposed that peaceful nations band together to quarantine aggressive nations
in an effort to reduce their impact on the peaceful world. He felt that by rejecting aggression, it
could be eliminated. His speech argued
for support of this effort by making the point that because all nations
depended on each other, they simply couldn’t do nothing about aggression, and
this was a non-violent manner in which to counter aggressive nations.
