✓Example of Analytical Exposition 1

Should Children Wear Hats at School?

I believe that you should always wear a hat at school when you are playing outside, to stop you from getting sunburn.

Argument 1:

Firstly, if you don’t wear a hat, you will get sunburn ant the sunburn is painful.

Argument 2:

Secondly, sunburn could lead to skin cancer. Sunburn can lead to health problems later in life. Many older people suffer from skin cancer which can kill them.

Reinforcement of position statement:

In my opinion all school students should wear hats.

“Protect Your Children”

It is important to know what your kids are watching? Of course yes. Television can expose things you have tried to protect then form, especially violence, pornography, consumerism, etc.

A study demonstrated that spending too much time on watching TV during the day or at bedtime, often causes bedtime disruption, stress, and short sleep duration. 

Another research found that there is a significant relationship between the amount of time spent watching television during adolescence and early adulthood, and the possibility of being aggressive. 

Meanwhile, many studies have identified a relationship between kids who watch TV a lot and being inactive and overweight. 

Considering some facts mentioned above, protect your children with the following tips: (1) limit television viewing to 1-2 hours each day. (2) do not allow your children to have a TV set in their bedrooms. (3) review the rating of TV shows that your children watch. (4) watch television with your children and discuss what is happening in the show.
