Nora is writing a speech and wants her listeners to understand school tardiness and ways to reduce the number of tardy students. Which text structure could Nora use to best organize her topic?

Nora wants to explain a problem—students arriving late to school—and discuss ways to reduce it. A problem-and-solution structure organizes information around an issue and possible ways to address it, so “problem and solution” is the best choice. The other structures focus on perspectives, event order, or similarities and differences.
