1 Look at the title and skim the text. Decide what type of essay it is
It is an expository essay. (说明文)
A title usually covers the main point of the subject or keywords of the essay. It shares the theme of the essay and tells the reader what to expect.
This article may be about how Chinese people have conducted sea explorations over time.
An expository essay normally has the purpose of explaining or giving information about something. While a descriptive essay normally describes something concrete, an expository essay usually tells information about something abstract. For example, an expository essay will talk about the value of subways systems, while a descriptive essay may talk about subway trains.
2 What are the four major types of essay do you know
There are four major types of essay:
narrative, descriptive, expository, and argumentative.
Tips for identifying essay types
There are four major types of essay: narrative (记叙文), descriptive (描述性文体), expository (说明文), and argumentative (议论文). A narrative essay is a story with the beginning, middle, and end. A descriptive essay describes a subject and lists interesting details. An expository essay is factual, giving information on a subject. Finally, an argumentative essay aims to convince the reader.
① Narrative : a story with a beginning + middle + end.
② Descriptive : a subject + interesting details
③ Expository : a subject+ factual information
④ Argumentative : an idea + to convince the reader
