I'd be glad to help, but I won't help you cheat.

Same here. Sorry, I don't give others schoolwork. Try and do the paper yourself.

I am good at essays. I will do my best to help. Here you go.

Brainstorm the major points. Think of how you will compare the two, in like a sentence or a few words even. Just little things.

OK, now that you have that, follow this format:

A.
1.
2.
3.

B.
1.
2.
3.

C.
1.
2.
3.

D.
1.
2.
3.

E.

A. is the introduction. You hit on the main topic, state your position, and say the ideas you came up with, the short ones. Then the next 3 paragraphs are expanding on this introduction.

Now, on the B, C, and D, is one of the ideas you came up with. You can have more than 3, but 3 is a good number. Those major points that make the arguement.

1, 2, and 3 (can make more if you want), is the little points within the major point you made.

Now, the 1, 2, and 3 are like a sentence or two. You want to fill that up with whats called "fluff" now. You restate ideas youve already said, in different ideas, talk about nothing in particular, or use big words that mean the same things. This makes your paper seem bigger.

Now that you have 4 major ideas, and 3 smaller but same topic-ed ideas, you have the bulk of it.

In E, is the conclusion. You restate your point of view or conclusion, maybe say why really fast (using your B, C, and D), and this only takes up 2-5 sentences.

Hope it helps!

LOL! Yah, I do my best. I like how its a better version of it, because it has the "fluff" concept. Making it look better, with less content. But thanks anyways.
