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:
The prejudice shown is making a sexist remark against the female gender.
The line "Women don't know the offside rule" shows how sexist the comment is.
Explanation:
A sexist remark is when a person of one gender says something discriminatory about a person of another gender. This means that talking bad about the other based on her gender is known or taken as a sexist comment or discrimination based on one's gender.
In the given scenario of the sports presenters, their comment about Sian Massey's 'incapability' to be a referee, based on her being a woman is a sexist remark. They are making the claim that Sian was not worthy to be a referee for the game because of her gender and that women don't know anything about <em>"offside rule"</em> which is discriminatory in nature.
This claim can be supported by the very comment <em>"Can you believe that? A female linesman. Women don't know the offside rule."</em>

<em>The Tell-Tale Heart</em> is a short story written by Edgar Allan Poe. It's told from the perspective of an unnamed narrator who is trying to convince the readers of his sanity while describing a murder he committed. He murdered an old man with a pale blue <em>vulture-eye. </em>After the murder, he begins hearing a thumping sound, which he interprets as the dead man's beating heart. The sound terrifies him and leads him to confess what he has done to officers.
The given passage is the beginning of the story, which means that it's the exposition. It introduces the characters and the conflict. In literature, there are two basic types of conflict:
- Internal conflict - a character struggles with their own opposing desires or beliefs.
- External conflict - a character struggles with an outside force, such as another character, nature, or society.
Here, we have an example of an inner (character vs self) conflict. The narrator tells us that the old man never wronged him and that he even loved him. However, he feels the need to murder him, as he explains it, because of his pale blue eye of a vulture, and decides to do that.
