Now this is a very important question. It is not about adopting a specific style of discourse. Your essay MUST include all forms of discourse as desired in the question. Most of the aspirants fail to factor in this requirement and subsequently furnish low marks. You must know that in CSS essay paper, argumentation plays a pivotal role in conveying your message. Moreover, without proper argumentation, your essay will not deposit the required impression.

One of my friends asked his tutor about the distribution and she advised him to devote at least 50% of essay in argumentative comments in order to effectively back the stance. In argumentation, you can use different forms of logical reasoning techniques to elucidate your point.

Also remember that argumentation mostly covers the later part of the essay and not the starting one. In the starting portion, you can utilize exposition and description to elucidate the points that demand explanation.

This is how I would tackle all forms of narration in a single essay.

Coming back to the original question, I would highly recommend you to dedicate a large chunk of your essay to argumentation alongside giving a vivid space to exposition, description and narration of the underlying topic. CSS essay is primarily an 'argumentative essay'. But it does require other forms of discourse as well.

Please make sure you tackle each and every one of them in such a manner that examiner gets a clear picture as to which point is related to which form of discourse. It is absolutely crucial that you include all of them in your essay.
