Answer 1

hey adya..

here is my try for the question you have asked...

<> non-fiction generally refers to the writtings about the real events or facts, rather than stories that have been created on own.


<> yes, there are sub-divisions in non-fiction.

= memoir
= creative non-fiction

memoir is the story where the events are taken from the history which is written from personal knowledge.

creative non-fiction be described as a hybrid genre that pulls in elements of friction (literary techniques ) , the writers perspective and factual information.

expository, argumentative, functional, and opinion pieces; essays on art or literature; biographies;journalism; and historical, scientific, technical, or economic writings 
these too are the types of non-fiction the subdivisions.
<> ways of seeing - John Berger
<> the diaries of Samuel pepys - sameul pepys
<> good bye to all that - Robert graves

these books are all I know...
and.. I don't have an idea of paragraph or example.

[ Taken from : In Cold Blood by Truman Capote ]

On the wheat plains of western Kansas, a lonesome area that other Kansas call "out there". Some seventy miles east of the Colorado border, the countryside , with its hard blue skies and desert-clear air, has an atmosphere that is rather more Far West than Middle West. The local accent is barbed with a prairie twang, a ranch-hand nasalness, and the men, many of them, wear narrow frontier trousers, Stetsons, and high-heeled boots with painted toes. The land is flat, and the views are awesomely extensive; horses, herds of cattle, a white cluster of grain elevators rising as gracefully as Greek temples are visible long before a traveller reaches them.
