Exploring Text Structures Quiz

Which of the following text structures is used when a text describes events in the order they happened?

• Cause and Effect

• Chronological

• Compare and Contrast

• Problem and Solution

What is the main purpose of a text organized in a "compare and contrast" structure?

• To show how things are similar and different

• To explain why something happened

• To describe a process step-by-step

• To present a problem and offer solutions

A text that explains the reasons why something happened is using which text structure?

• Sequence

• Cause and Effect

• Description

• Problem and Solution

Which text structure would most likely be used in a recipe?

• Chronological

• Cause and Effect

• Sequence

• Compare and Contrast

If a text is organized by listing characteristics, features, and examples, which structure is it using?

• Description

• Problem and Solution

• Chronological

• Cause and Effect

How does a "problem and solution" text structure organize information?

• By listing events in the order they occurred

• By explaining a problem and then providing one or more solutions

• By comparing and contrasting two or more things

What is the primary difference between "chronological" and "sequence" text structures?

• Chronological is used for comparing, while sequence is for listing steps

• Chronological is for events in time order, sequence is for steps in a process

• Chronological is for cause and effect, sequence is for problem and solution

• Chronological is for describing, sequence is for contrasting
