Answer 3

OK, here are some searches. Read well and take notes.

Put US at the top of one piece of paper and list all you can about details of US government.

Put Canada at the top of one piece of paper and list all you can about details of Canada's government.

Then use marks or different colored highlighters to indicate on those papers which things they have in common (similarities = comparison) and which things are different (differences = contrast).

Answer 4

Whenever you are writing a comparison/contrast paper, you need to <b>plan it out very carefully on paper first</b>. Put them together in this order:

1. Intro with thesis statement at the end.
2. All about topic A
~~~2A. detail 1
~~~2B. detail 2
~~~2C. detail 3
~~~2D. detail 4
~~~2E. detail 5
3. All about topic B
~~~3A. detail 1
~~~3B. detail 2
~~~3C. detail 3
~~~3D. detail 4
~~~3E. detail 5
4. Concl.

The number of details for each topic will vary depending on your main points. I would include comparisons (how they are similar) in the introduction and conclusion, but sections 2 and 3 and all those details will be stating and explaining how they are different.

There are two recognized patterns for writing comparison/contrast papers. One is casually referred to as "zig-zag,” but this can be very confusing for the reader if you don’t use transitions effectively. The other is topic-by-topic (which is what I've outlined above) and is much easier for the reader to follow.
