Mode of Development: Exposition

Exposition is a type of writing where the purpose is to inform, describe, explain, or define the author's subject to the reader. Exposition is meant to deposit information and is the most frequently used type of writing by students in elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, colleges and universities. A well-written exposition remains focused on its topic and lists events in chronological order. Examples of expository writing include driving directions and instructions on performing a task. Key words such as first, after, next, then, last, before that, and usually signal sequential writing. Expository essays should not reveal the opinion of the author or writer.

Sample Paragraph From a Journal

The author clarifies that Contrary to what one might expect from the title, the authors concern is neither sex nor sexuality, but gender and roles. The theme of the book speaks to the point the societies must make the fullest use of ther human resources and talent. Findings are presented from a vast array of research on the significance of sex differences as these differences affect all of lifes span and most of lifes activities. It is the authors contention that the very obviousness of sex diffences has caused us to overlook tha ways in which these differences operate, and that by overlooking or failing to understand these differences, parents, teachers and others have made grievous mistakes. The author attempt to provide a balanced presentation of the ways males and females are treated differently and unequally in all realms of life school, family, work as well as in what ways this differential treatment can be both helpful and harmful to the development of both sexes. In their attempt to provide a balanced presentation of the human

misery inflicted be inappropriate sex role expectations, the authors themselves treat the sexes unfairly. The negative impact of sex role expectations on males in more adequately covered that in most other books in this subject., but it is done so at the the expense of females. This is especially tru in the chapter Beyond High School. There is little discussion of the myriad ways women are dicriminated against in higher education and what the psychosociological effects are of such discrimination. Source: Howard, S. (1974).
