Question

read the passage. in 1812, war broke out in europe and in north america. in addition to the usual ravages of conflict, this war saw two of the most precious us landmarks damaged. two years into the conflict, in 1814, a british force invaded washington dc, and burned the capitol building and the white house in retaliation for us forces burning york in 1813. which text structure is used in this passage? ○ sequence ○ chronological order ○ description ○ problem/solution

Explanation:

The passage presents events in the order they occurred: war broke out in 1812, then in 1813 US forces burned York, and in 1814 the British invaded Washington DC. This follows a chronological order (arranged by time). Sequence can be more general, but here the key is the time - ordered events. Description would focus on details of a thing, and problem/solution has a problem and its solution, which is not here.

Answer:

B. chronological order
