English Language Specification A - 4EA1 PearsonEdexcel

Non-fiction Text Types

Akopọ

An unseen extract lands in front of you with no title page and no explanation. Before you have understood a single sentence you can already know a great deal about it: who it was written for, what it was trying to do to them, and therefore which of its features are deliberate. A diary that reads oddly is not badly written; it is a diary. A news report that seems cold is not indifferent; it is a news report.

This note maps the territory the specification asks you to cover, from journalism and speeches to obituaries and travel writing, and shows how to place an unfamiliar extract on that map in the first thirty seconds. Getting the form right does not answer the question, but it stops you asking the wrong one.

Awọn Afojusun

  1. Study and analyse selections from a range of non-fiction texts including journalism, speeches, journals and reference book extracts
  2. Study literary non-fiction texts such as selections from autobiography, letters, obituaries and travel writing

Akọ̀wé Ẹ̀kọ́

Section A gives you two texts: a non-fiction text from Part 1 of the anthology, which you will have studied, and one previously unseen extract, which you will not. The anthology text arrives with two years of context attached. The unseen arrives with nothing except a short introductory line, and everything you can infer from that line is free information.
