What is the text structure of the given passage?
On the impending eruption of Taal Volcano, as of Monday, more than 25,000 people had sought shelter in temporary evacuation centers set up by the authorities. The total number of evacuees is likely to be higher, however, with many people choosing to stay with family members and relatives in other parts of the country.
Federal authorities are helping the response and evacuation operation. The army sent 20 military vehicles and 120 personnel to help affected residents, and the secretary of national defense said helicopters were on standby to evacuate people.
The defense secretary also urged residents near the eruption to evacuate, and not to hesitate in leaving their homes. Aid organizations like the Red Cross are assisting on the ground by sending rescue vehicles and supplies.

What is the text structure of the passage?
Among the shortfalls of diagnostic testing is the possibility of false negatives (failing to detect a condition when it is present) and false positives (detecting a condition when it is absent).
It is easy to see why false negatives can be a problem – we lose the benefits of early intervention. But false positives can also cause harm, including unnecessary treatment. This is why positive screening tests are often followed up with a second, different test to confirm a diagnosis.

What text structure is used in the passage?
Teachers and students alike are having a hard time adjusting to the new norm of learning. Traditional educators who are not technology savvy are not only teaching their subjects but are also learning gradually how to communicate these knowledge using a medium that is way beyond what they were used to. Students are also in a position where understanding each lesson depends on the skills that they are not used to in this age of viewing and entertainment: reading and listening. Both, however, are at the mercy of the very slow internet connectivity in the country.
