レッスンノート What comparison asks for Comparison questions ask how two writers present ideas, viewpoints or attitudes about the same subject, and how they do it. Make clear comparisons across the response. An integrated approach is useful, but there is no universal rule requiring both texts in every paragraph. Some qualifications pair nineteenth-century and later non-fiction. Follow your own task and specification; a text’s date does not determine its style. Two views of one clean-up Two views of one clean-up Example Emphasis A: a fresh start Hope and renewal B: years of damage Doubt about lasting change
Comparing perspectives Viewpoint is the writer's opinion; attitude is their feeling; perspective is their position or experience.Identify what each writer thinks, then compare: do they agree, partly agree, or contrast? Use comparative connectives : "similarly", "likewise", "whereas", "in contrast", "on the other hand", "both writers...". Contrasting perspectives on a beach clean-up Comparing methods Compare relevant methods such as word choice, imagery and structural shifts, explaining how they convey ideas or tone. Formality belongs to register; humour and seriousness concern tone. Support each text with a short quotation and explain the effect on the reader. Structuring a response Plan around the task and available time, selecting developed points rather than a fixed number. For each shared point, connect evidence from both texts and explain the similarity or difference. Use context only when it helps interpret the supplied evidence. Do not invent dates or assume all older writing is formal. Build a supported comparison Build a supported comparison Step Decision Shared point How hopeful is each writer? A: fresh start Suggests a new beginning B: cannot erase Challenges the scale of progress Comparison Hope versus qualified scepticism
