Compare and Contrast Paragraphs
September 28, 2017

Similarities:
The 2 news article are similar by the content, tone, style, and theme. First, the two articles are both talking about Hurricane Harvey that struck Texas, causing flooding and massive destruction to the city. The writer of both article sounded serious when they explained the Hurricane and the situation at that time. Both writers gave numbers, for example, both article pointed out the category of Hurricane Harvey, its wind power, the inches of rain, and how many people are forced to leave their shelters. Lastly, the style and theme, both writers like to use pictures and description to give the readers a clear mind and not be confused or get bored. They also like to give quotes from main politics people to make sure nobody gets crazy, this is a good technique because it calm people down and also tell others that the government is caring about this disaster, the main style of two articles are mostly same because they are news articles and they have the same amount of research, one doesn’t gets more accurate information and so does the other, it is how they use the information and put them together.

Differences:
They are somehow different by the language and mood. The news article Texas Faces Massive Flooding seems to write about the research of Hurricanes, and give facts of the situation, but the article Catastrophe in the Golf did research about the Hurricane, people, and the rescue process as a result of Hurricane Harvey. The article has a certain amount of picture differences, one gave more pictures that explains the article they are talking about, the other gave small pictures of other situations, at this point, the pictures might get off topic when you have a picture that doesn’t relate to the paragraph. In the article Texas Faces Massive Flooding, the topics are separated by words, like titles, but in the other article, Catastrophe in the Golf, a new idea is separated by pictures, pictures starts their main ideas, and then paragraphs that support them.
