What is the text structure?
The text structure that is evident in this excerpt is a descriptive text structure. Elements of chronology can also be found because the narrator details events that transpired when they were young and likely the events that followed after then.
By structuring texts in this way, it is easy to see how the narrator assimilated social learning by watching the actions of her brother.
