In the book, “Expressways writing scenarios” chapter 14 Comparison and Contrast by Kathleen McWhorter gives an overview of comparing and contrasting an essay structure.

In the dystopian novel The Uglies by Scott Westerfeld teens are forced to live in a society consumed by the high standards of beauty. The teens in The Uglies live in a town called “Uglyville” up until the age of sixteen where they go to live in “New Pretty Town”. Once the teen turns sixteen years old, they are forced to undergo a surgery that changes their entire demeanor just so that they fit into societies standards.

The writer gives an interesting aspect to the essay. She makes her point clear to the audience, which makes the essay readable. In the essay, Mae adds fascinating details to keep the reader interested. When the essay begins to get uninteresting, she adds a detail that makes you want to continue reading.

The first paragraph in the essay takes a form of a vivid description. It starts with a quotation of a teacher giving instructions to start an exam.

At the beginning of their essay, Darley and Latane use dramatic examples in order to captivate the readers. They start off their piece with strong phrases like, “Stabbed in the head and neck,” and “Boy bleeds to death” (Darley and Latane 768). They use examples like Kitty Genovese, Andrew Mormille, and Elanor Bradley. Kitty Genovese’s story is first and as it begins readers are interested right away because they recognize the name, and that is all a writer needs. They need the reader to be interested right from the start, and Darley and Latane do just that.
