Organize an essay outline using compare/contrast strategy. You might present ideas or information in any one of the following three ways:1.Compare and contrast, discussing similarities as well as differences between two or more persons, places, or things;2.Compare only, discussing just similarities; or3.Contrast only, discussing differences.
Hints:Note that pure comparison or pure contrast is rarely encountered and may be hard to write. But you can choose to focus on the similarities (thus more comparison than contrast) or the differences (thus more contrast than comparison).
