What is the text structure in this paragraph?
No one knows the true origin of ice-cream, but the first published ice-cream recipe appears in
"Mrs. Mary Eales's Receipts," a cook book that was printed in London in 1718. Sometime around 1832, an African American confectioner named Augustus Jackson created multiple ice cream recipes and invented a superior technique to manufacture ice cream. Ice cream soda was invented around 1874, but the real breakthrough may have been at the 1904 World's Fair in St.
Louis, Missouri, when the American ice-cream cone was unveiled!

What text structure does this text have?
Ice cream is a delicious frozen treat that comes in many different colors and flavours. Two of my favorite flavors are strawberry and chocolate. Though both of these flavors are delicious, strawberries may contain pieces of fruit, while chocolate usually does not. Even though more chocolate ice cream is sold across the country annually than strawberry, each flavor tastes great inside a milkshake.
