DISCUSSION
2.1.Exposition Text
Exposition text is usually created to express the author's opinion to discuss important
issues that are currently busy and hot to be discussed. Because it contains the author's
opinions and arguments, usually expository texts can give rise to pros and cons in society
which of course will have an impact on the author himself. This argument is also one of
the characteristics that differentiates expository text from other types of text, guys .
The first type is analytical exposition . So, analytical exposition is an exposition text that
begins with a statement from the author to show their attitude and position in responding
to an issue or theme that will be discussed.
Slightly different from exposition text in Indonesian which has several types, in
English, exposition text aka exposition text only has two types, guys . Anything,
anyway ? Come on, check it out!But,we only explain about analytical exposition and
other one is explained by another group.
1. Thesis: This section introduces the topic or issue being discussed and presents the
author’s viewpoint or thesis statement.
3. Reiteration: The conclusion summarizes the main points discussed in the body
paragraphs and reinforces the author’s stance. It may also offer suggestions,
recommendations, or implications based on the arguments presented.
To create analytical exposition text correctly, there are several linguistic rules that
you must fulfill.
3
➢ Using simple present tense .
In analytical exposition, the use of verb 1 (also known as the base form of the verb)
is common. Here are some guidelines on how to use verb 1 effectively in this type of
text:
1. Present general truths or facts: Use verb 1 to state general truths or facts about
the topic being discussed. For example, “Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius.”
2. Express habitual actions: Use verb 1 to describe actions that are regularly or
habitually performed. For example, “People often exercise to maintain their
physical health.”
4. Use in conjunction with modal verbs: Verb 1 is often used in conjunction with
modal verbs like “can,” “should,” “must,” etc., to express possibilities,
obligations, or recommendations. For example, “Students should study regularly
to achieve good academic results.”
Remember to use verb 1 appropriately based on the context and purpose of your
analytical exposition.
➢ Use connective words or linking words to connect ideas. Connective words can
be written in the form of phrases, clauses, sentences or paragraphs. To add ideas
or opinions , you can use: besides, furthermore, in addition to , etc. To compare
several ideas , you can use: while, vice versa, whereas, but, on the other hand,
henceforth, etc.
To show cause and effect , you can use: because, by, despite, as a result, etc.
➢ Using words that are opini(seem, feel, think, know, realize , etc.).

2.3.Text Example
Music is not merely an art form but a transformative force that impacts individuals and
societies in profound ways.Music holds a unique position in human culture, transcending
boundaries of language and geography. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, it possesses the power
to evoke emotions, shape identities, and even catalyze social change.
Argument 1 :
First,music has an amazing ability to influence and evoke a wide range of emotions in its
listeners for several reasons. Musical elements such as melody, harmony, rhythm, and
lyrics can stimulate the parts of the brain associated with emotions. When we listen to
music we like, chemical reactions in the brain such as the release of dopamine and
serotonin can increase feelings of happiness, pleasure, or nostalgia. Dr. Daniel Levitin, a
neuroscientist, suggests that music stimulates various regions of the brain associated with
pleasure, emotion, and memory. Whether it's the uplifting melody of a symphony or the
melancholic notes of a ballad, music has the capacity to profoundly influence our mood
and emotional state.
Argument 2 :
Second, music also plays a role in shaping cultural identity. Each society has its own
traditional music that reflects their history, values, and beliefs. Music becomes an integral
part of a group's cultural identity, becoming a medium to tell their stories and pass on
cultural heritage to the next generation. For example, in certain indigenous peoples, music
and dance may be the primary way to celebrate religious rituals or other significant events,
and this helps preserve and revive their cultural heritage. Ethnomusicologist Dr. Patricia
Shehan Campbell argues that music serves as a repository of cultural heritage, transmitting
traditions, values, and narratives across generations. From indigenous folk songs to
national anthems, music reflects the diverse tapestry of human experiences and identities.
Argument 3 :
Lastly, music has the potential to influence social structures and societies. Music is often
used as a tool to convey social and political messages, be it in the form of protest songs,
national anthems, or musical movements fighting for change. Music can be a voice for
those who are not heard, awaken awareness of certain issues, or even unite people with a
5
common vision and purpose. Sociologist Dr. Tia DeNora contends that communal music-
making fosters social cohesion by promoting cooperation, empathy, and mutual
understanding. Whether through religious rituals, protest songs, or music festivals, shared
musical experiences have the potential to bridge divides and foster a sense of solidarity
among diverse groups.
Reiteration :
In this sense, music is not just entertainment or an art form, but also a force that can change
the way we see ourselves, our society, and the world around us. Its ability to trigger
emotions, shape cultural identities, and influence social structures makes music an
incredibly powerful tool for change and growth.

CONCLUSION
3.1.Conclusion
Analytical exposition is a form of discourse that aims to persuade and present a logical
argument. Its conclusion typically reinforces the main thesis or standpoint presented in
the text. The effectiveness of an analytical exposition lies in the strength of its evidence,
logical reasoning, and the ability to address potential counterarguments. In conclusion,
crafting a compelling analytical exposition requires a thorough understanding of the topic,
careful organization of ideas, and the use of persuasive language to leave a lasting impact
on the audience.
