Techniques on writing expository essays (說明文)
To write a good expository essay, we must write in a logical sequence to explain things clearly. Sometimes we have to provide facts and figures.
■Examples:
1. Firstly, heat a large saucepan over medium heat. Then add a tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add minced beef and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook the mince until well browned.
2. After that, add the tomatoes and stir well to mix with onion in the pan. Reduce the heat and simmer the mixture until it is thick and rich.
3. In the meantime, heat water in another saucepan and add a pinch of salt. Once the water is brought to the boil, throw the spaghetti in. Typically it should cook within 7 to 11 minutes. Once the spaghetti is cooked through, drain and add to the pan with the bolognese sauce. Mix well and serve.
