Lesson 9
15th Feb 2012.
Semester 1.
Comparing and Contrasting.
If
you compare two things you tell how they are alike. If you contrast two
things you tell how they are different. If you compare and contrast two
things you tell how they are alike and how they are different.
It
is important to organize your thoughts and information before you do
so. Here are two different ways to organize information. As an example,
we will look at the Smilodon, and the Caribou - two animals that lived
during the Ice Ages.

Compare and Contrast Questions Come in Three Different Formats!
1. Compare: You are asked to explain how two or more things are alike.
2. Contrast: You are asked to explain how two or more things are different.
3. Compare/Contrast: You are asked to explain how two or more things
are alike and different.
Examples of how to use the compare/contrast words to answer compare/contrast questions: From the Link as an Example...
1. Compare: How are the caribou and the smilodon alike?
Answer: The caribou and the smilodon are both mammals. The smilodon lived in the arctic regions during the Ice Ages, as did the caribou. Like the smilodon, the caribou was able to protect itself from predators.
2. Contrast: How were the smilodon and caribou different?
Answer: Although the caribou and the smilodon were both mammals, they were very different in many ways. The caribou was a plant-eater,unlike the smilodon which ate meat. The caribou had blunt, rounded teeth for eating plants, whereas the smilodon had sharp, pointed ones. The smilodon became extinct at the end of the Ice Ages, in contrast to the caribou which still lives in the arctic regions today.
