2、r corresponding Translats. It finds that configuration of TP patterns is the inherent feature of the text concerning a particular genre irrespective of the influence of transition between languages. In general, the confi

3、guration of TP patterns of essays, either English or Chinese, either in the original or in the Translats, is the same, but the research reveals that the features in each minor type such as argumentative, narrative, descr

9、ation of TP patterns has practical values (though limited in the scope of essays), for it discovers that configuration of TP patterns is the inherent feature of typical texts, thus it can decide the genre of a typical te
