The ideology of the writer within this text is right antagonist. It is right because all attitudes in this text are deeply positive. This means supporting.
Furthermore, it is antagonist because Perez Hilton does not try to find the bad side or the negative side of the artist at all and does not find the rival to drop
her. He clearly gives support by saying ―More power to ya‖. For that reason, the ideology is right antagonist.

Not to mention the half naked ghoulish dancers running around and a stage covered in smoke
Reiteration Congrats, Miz Lewis
We expect many more solo shows to come
The text above is an analytical exposition text. The proofs are as follows:
1. Social Function The text consists of arguments supporting the thesis. The content of
the arguments affirms the statement that Leona Lewis has given a wonderful performance with a trick as stated in the first paragraph and a restatement of
the thesis. Here the writer tends to show that though Leona has done a kind of tricking cheating, she gives a wonderful performance.
2. Generic Structure The text consists of thesis, arguments and reiteration. The thesis is
Leona Lewis has performed a fabulous show with a trick. The arguments are;
Leona writes some key words on her hand. The show goes down without a hitch.
The concept of the performance is very good. Then, the reiteration is
―Congrats, Miz Lewis We expect many more solo shows to come
‖. Those statements restate the first paragraph that the writer agrees that Leona Lewis has done a fabulous performance by
commit to user 89
giving a support and felicitation. For these reasons, the genre of the text is analytical exposition
