A subordinate clause is a dependent clause that cannot stand on its own.
The subordinate clause here is <em>I am reading.
</em>The whole sentence is <em>The book (that) I am reading concerns world population problems.

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.
Answer and Explanation:
The 21st century is marked by political, economic and social polarization. This has been a major problem, as polarization prevents society from moving towards progress, since, on the contrary, it initiates intrigues and factions that are more concerned with proving they are correct than promoting progress.
In this sense, education is essential to end polarization, because only with education is it possible to promote reasoning and the interpretation of facts, which will lead an individual to reach correct conclusions about political, economic and social elements. However, we must show how traditional classroom education is more effective in this regard, as it has a direct orientation, which corrects incorrect concepts about society in real time. Alternative education does not have this advantage and can encourage incorrect concepts to be disguised, due to the lack of fast, professional and real-time guidance.
