The task names a specific form; a generic essay misses its conventions and loses Criterion C.

Where do you find the text type in a prompt?
Answer
It's almost always printed in the prompt — «blog», «email», «articolo», «discorso» — so underline it first.

How do you decide the register for a text type?

From the form and its reader: a formal letter is Lei, a blog is semiformal, a speech depends on the audience.
