Question 1
  • Fiction or non-fiction?
  • Non-fiction text is usually written for a precise
    practical purpose, unlike fiction text, which is
    primarily written to entertain.
  • Non-fiction text could be used to
  • Inform the reader.
  • Persuade the reader.
  • Give advice to the reader.
  • Describe a person, place, feeling or object.
  • Of course, fiction texts - novels, poems, plays -
    might include information, persuasion, advice and
    description, but remember that they were not
    specifically written with these in mind.
