Before we discuss about Analytical Exposition, it's better for us to know what Exposition text is and its kinds
DEFINITION
Exposition is a statement or type of composition intended
to give information about (or an explanation of) an issue, subject, method, or
idea. Adjective: expository. Compare with argument.
(https://www.thoughtco.com/exposition-composition-term-1690695)
Exposition text has
two forms namely Hortatory and Analytical. Beside both have different name,
there is also a difference on how the genres consist of. In the Analytical exposition text,
the generic structures will be Thesis, Arguments, and Reiteration,
but on Hortatory Exposition text, the generic
structures are Thesis, Arguments, and Recommendation.
Can you guess the
difference?
Yes,
it is the Reiteration and Recommendation.
The
Reiteration
will just conclude
the text, but
the
Recommendation
to deepen your understanding about the genres.
There
are two examples below consisted of same thesis, and same arguments but have
different closing.
EXAMPLE 1: ANALYTICAL
Why
Exercise is Important
The majority of us
claim that we do not have time for exercise. We feel too busy to do that.
However, many expert said that exercise has great role in making our body
healthy.
Being physically active offers many advantages. In
physical reword, exercise can reduce weight then our body will become fitter.
Exercise is also believed to reduce stress levels, improve sleep patterns, and
reduce the risk of heart disease, diabetes and some forms of cancer. Beside
physical advantage, exercise also brings good effects mentally. Due to the
fitter body, exercise can make us feel refreshed and happy then we can increase
our life quality and expectancy.
How can we do exercise while we are busy? Such
question is commonly found among us. Actually exercise can be done in simple
ways. We can go walking while shopping. In the office we can take stair rather
than lift to run up and down. Or we can go cycling while enjoy the leisure
time.
Overall, exercise helps us healthier physically and mentally. That is why
exercise is very important to us.

Based on arguments above, it is very clear that exercise is vital for our
life. Even for busy people, exercise can be done in many ways and I’m sure it
will even be possible for non busy people. So, we should exercise.

asthma. Some of these illnesses are so bad that people can die from them.
Secondly, the city is very busy.
Pedestrians wander everywhere and cars commonly hit pedestrians in the city,
which causes them to die. Cars today are our roads biggest killers.

live in the city, you may find it hard to sleep at night, or concentrate on
your homework, and especially talk to someone.
