 Thesis

In this part, the writer must tell the reader about the main
topic that she/he is going to write about. The thesis can
usually be found in the first paragraph of the text. In this
section, readers can also see why the writer gives an
opinion on the topic.
 Arguments
In the next paragraph, we can find the arguments section.
The writer will write the opinions to support the main topic
that has been presented previously. Usually in analytical
exposition there are more than two arguments. The more
arguments presented, the more readers will believe that the
topic discussed is an important topic or requires attention.
 Reiteration/ Conclusion

This section is always located at the end of the text and

becomes the closing paragraph of the text. Reiteration
contains reaffirmation of the writer's position and opinion
on the main topic.
