Framing Question Text - With this text structure, writers work off a central question at the beginning of the text and then make the rest of the text a series of responses to that question.  Often, there is some scene that is set up at the beginning in which the framing question is situated.  The main body of the text is written as a succession of responses, all of which answer the question in another facet of the information, description, or storyline being presented (Wondrous Words, by Katie Wood Ray).
