Analysis of Structure, Audience, Tone, and Style in Text C: "Up in
Smoke! Police Bust Dagga Worth Millions This Weekend"
The article titled "Police Bust Dagga Worth Millions This Weekend" by
Rorisang Kgosana is a news text that informs the public about police
operations to bust drug dealers in South Africa. This essay aims to analyse
the structure, audience, tone, and style of the text to show how the writer's
purpose is achieved. The essay will start by examining the structure of the
article, then analyse its audience, tone, and style.
The structure of the article is typical of news texts, with a headline, a lead,
and the body of the article. The headline, "Police Bust Dagga Worth Millions
This Weekend," is attentiongrabbing, informing the reader what the article is
about. In the lead, the writer gives a brief summary of the events, informing
the reader that the police have found a dagga plantation in George and that

The body of the article is divided into two parts, each focusing on the two
police operations. The first part provides a more detailed description of the
dagga plantation bust in George, while the second part reports on the car
chase in KZN. The article concludes with a paragraph that summarises both
incidents and includes a quote from the South African Police Service. Using
a chronological order, this structure allows readers to follow the events in a
logical sequence; "A three-month police operation has finally busted a
sophisticated dagga plantation in the Western Cape. Another police chase
also finds hundreds of kilograms of dagga in KwaZulu-Natal at the
weekend."
Additionally, the language used in the headline and subheading is
sensational, with the use of exclamation marks and words such as "up in
smoke" and "sophisticated dagga plantation" designed to evoke a sense of
shock and awe. This approach is effective in capturing the reader's attention
and conveying the gravity of the situation.
Furthermore, the audience for this article is likely to be the general public,
particularly those interested in current events and drug-related news. The
writer assumes that the reader has some prior knowledge about dagga and
its illegal status in South Africa. For example, in the lead paragraph, the
