Which of the following is a feature of expository text?

  1. Character dialogue

  2. Flashbacks

  3. Highlighted vocabulary words

  4. Plot twists

The correct answer is: Highlighted vocabulary words

Expository text typically presents information in a factual, straightforward manner without the use of narrative elements such as character dialogue, flashbacks, or plot twists. Therefore, highlighted vocabulary words, as they are often used to define or explain key terms within the text, are a common feature of expository writing. This helps readers understand the important concepts and terms being discussed in the informational text.
