Question

Read the passage. Earning straight A’s in school this year is my goal. It is extremely important that I earn good grades so that I can get a college scholarship. Also, my parents would be proud of me, and I want to prove to myself that I can earn a perfect report card. Which organizational structure is used?

Answer 1

Answer:

Order of importance

Explanation:

The author uses an "order of importance" organizational structure. In this type of structure, the author begins by talking about the most important elements of an essay, and the importance of each aspect diminishes as the essay progresses. This is the case in this example. In this case, the author begins with the most important reason for getting good grades, and ends with the least important factor.

Answer 2

If your choices are the following:
a. order of importance 
b. chronological order 
c. spatial order 
d. process order

Then the answer would be A. order of importance.  This is when the author organized his ideas through the use of important events in the story.
