Explanation:

A text can serve several purposes. A text that wants to inform a reader usually contains statements of fact that are backed up by evidence. It also tries to avoid biases and personal opinions. A text that wants to persuade a reader can also contain facts, but these are presented in a way that provides support for a particular opinion. Finally, a text can entertain when it tells us a story or it uses a lot of vivid, interesting language.
