Question 6 • *OO-Creative Writing-Cohrs-Q4

Tyrone works as a writer for a magazine. Tyrone’s boss, Donna, has asked him to rewrite his descriptive story about Disneyland in a way that will make it more expository. What is the MOST likely reason for Donna’s request?

Answer
A
Only stories about fictional locations can be descriptive.
B
Donna has a different purpose in mind for the piece.
C
Tyrone did not include enough detail in his original story.
D
Tyrone included too much detail in his original story.

Explanation

Descriptive writing helps readers picture a place, while expository writing explains or informs readers about a topic. Donna’s request most likely means she wants the story to serve a different purpose, such as giving readers information about Disneyland. The amount of detail alone does not determine whether writing is descriptive or expository.
