Inform

Explanation:

The main purpose of expository writing is to inform. Therefore, when an author writes this type of writing, what he mostly wants is to describe a particular situation so that his readers become familiar with it. He does not mean to educate, preach or moralize the way Aesop's fables do. His purpose is simply to present a topic to inform the audience.
