Question

Which of the following is not a structure used in expository texts?
A. Cause and Effect
B. Chronological order
C. Comparison/contrast
D. Flashback

Answer 1

I wrote a few expository essays. I used A and C, for sure.
So the answer is either B or D.
If I had to guess, I would say that B. Chronological order is not a structure used in expository texts.

Answer 2

Well expository texts describe and explain things, which is a purpose that chronological order serves, so I wouldn't think it's B either.

Answer 3

But I'm not even sure flashback is a structure at all, so it's possible that's the answer you're looking for.

Answer 4

I'd agree with @Susanna
