Chapter 13 - Comparison and Contrast Summary

Chapter 13 - Comparison and Contrast - Summary

In this chapter you learn about comparison and contrast essays. When writing a comparison and contrast essay, there are some things to remember. First, you need to show two subjects in a side by side manner. You need to show your reader how they are comparable and how they are different. At the end of your essay, you need to draw a conclusion or make a point on what you were showing. When choosing a topic, you should find subjects that are related or think of items that are paired. You need to do some research on your subjects and make sure to list where you got your information from. I learned that there are two ways to go about writing or organizing your essay. If your essay will be a short comparison, then you can write subject by subject. If your essay will be longer and more complex, then you will need to organize it in a trait by trait manner.
