I think the second one would also be a choice. It is trying to show you the nature of anxiety and what causes it. You learn a lot about symptoms from reading it. It's quick and to the point. Expository? Yes.
I don't think four is exactly expository, but I might be wrong. It sounds too argumentative to be completely expository.
