"You can do it!" shouted her father, as he pushed Chloe and let go. She was going on her own, but suddenly fell. She cried, but
said, "Again, daddy!" This time she went farther but fell into the ditch. A few moments later, she was riding down the street, smiling from ear to ear. What is the theme of the passage?
I'm pretty sure :) I'm sorry if it's wrong. But if you read the passage, you would think it's either "your family will do anything for you" or "you should never give up," but the passage is more about Chloe not giving up. Her dad may be encouraging her, but it seems like the second choice more fits the theme.
This theme fits the paragraph mainly becuase Chloes never gave up even when she hurt herself. She was encouraged to learn how to ride a bike and when she didn't give up she succeeded.

In other words, the major difference between expository and argumentative essays is that argumentative essays try to convince, while expository essays attempt to inform and/or explain.
