Reading Non-fiction: Articles, Reports And Persuasive Texts
Akopọ
Most of the reading you do in real life is non-fiction: news articles, opinion columns, reports, reviews, advertisements, speeches and blogs. These texts are not just there to inform; they are written to do a job, whether that is to persuade you, warn you, sell to you or move you. Reading them well means seeing past what they say to what they are trying to make you think and feel, and noticing the techniques the writer uses to get there.
This lesson teaches you to read non-fiction critically: to recognise the conventions of different text types, to identify a writer's purpose and intended audience from the language and tone, and to analyse the persuasive and rhetorical techniques that do the work. You will see weak comments rebuilt into strong ones, study an annotated extract from a persuasive article, and practise on an exam-style task with a model answer and the mark-scheme criteria. The skills here feed every paper: you read non-fiction in Paper 1 and you write it in Paper 2.
