EXPLANATION TEXT CHAPTER 3 PART 2

HI EVERYONE !
How are you, I hope you are in good and healthy condition, so this time I will discuss what a explanation text is, types of explanation text, structure of explanation text, characteristic of explanation text and examples of explanation text.

Definition of Explanation Text 

Explanation text is a text to provide a clear explanation. Usually, explanation texts contain explanations about social, natural, or cultural phenomena. The purpose of writing this text is to tell the reader about how something works or why something happens.

Type of Explanation Text
There are two types of writing explanation text.

1. Text that explains why something happened
Example: “Why does the glass fog up when we take a shower.”

2. Text that explains how something happened
Example: “How can landslides occur.”

Structure of Explanation Text

1. Titles
Every article must have a title and the type of explanation text is no exception. For titles with this type of text, you don't need to beat around the bush. You only need to provide a title that matches the content of the article, such as “What causes a Tsunami?”, “Why are our rain forests disappearing?” or “The process of making aluminum”.

2. Opening Statement
The purpose of writing with the type of explanation text, of course, is to provide valid information and facts for the readers. Therefore, you really need to include a strong opening statement in writing and if you can, you must include evidence such as journals or articles that have been verified. In the opening statement, you can also write down the identification of the process to be explained. Focus on the process of a phenomenon that you want to explain and avoid too much to include the small things involved in a phenomenon.

3. Sequencing
In creating an article, write it in the form of short paragraphs and divide it into several parts. Do not let the reader dizzy to read paragraphs that are too long. Also use the relationship by inserting the cause and effect of a phenomenon or event.

4. Conclusion
If everything has been discussed, don't forget to write a conclusion or conclusion from the information you provide. This way your writing will be considered more valid.

5. Visuals
In explaining a process, usually you will need visuals such as pictures, photos, diagrams, and so on to clarify the content of the writing. You can also insert videos to make your writing more informative.

Characteristic of Explanation Text 

1. Because this type of writing discusses facts, the tense used is the simple present tense.

2. The use of action verbs which are verbs used to describe the action that is taking place.
For example: do, make, create, and so on.

3. Writing in this type of text uses passive voice which aims to emphasize the focus on the happenings rather than the subject.

4. Using noun phrases.

5. Using technical terms. Technical Terms are technical terms that are in accordance with the contents of the articles discussed.

6. Using chronological conjunctions such as “next”, “first”, “then”, “to begin with”, and others.

Example of Explanation Text

How is Snow Made?
We all agree that snowfall is always fascinating. During the snowfall, everyone stays out of the house and plays with the snow. People can make giant snowmen, trample along the snow, or play snowballs with their families. However, are you curious about how the snow is made?

Snow is water droplets falling from the clouds. These droplet waters then become solid until finally it creates snow. It happens because rain consists of water vapor particles being cooled in the air.

Snow happens when water vapor piled up in the earth’s atmosphere freezes. It happens before they turn into water droplets. This process occurs when the temperature in the cloud becomes very frigid.

Snowflakes are created by crystals of ice that have established around a little filth in the air. They then grow from small forms into big ones. The form of snowflakes is varied. They can consist of 200 crystals maximum.
