Text structure: sequence and chronology (volgorde van gebeurtenissen en tijd).
This structure is used to list events or steps:
- steps on how to do or make something
For example: first you do this, secondly you do that, and finally/lastly you ... (= sequence)
- by the order in which events happened in time
For example: in the morning this happened, then that happened, the next day something else happened (= chronology)
You can recognise a text structure by looking for signal words.
Examples of signal words often used for sequence and chronology are: ‘first(ly)’, ‘second(ly)’, ‘then’, ‘next’, ‘earlier’, ‘before’, ‘after’, ‘finally’, ‘last(ly)’.

Text structure: comparison and contrast
By comparison, writers show how things or people are the same or similar.
Clues are given by signal words such as: also, as if, equally, just like, likewise, similarly, too.
By contrast, writers show the ways in which things or people are different from each other.
The following signal words could be used: although, though, but, by contrast, despite, either ... or, even so, instead, nevertheless, on the one hand ... on the other hand, still, then again, whereas, while, yet.
