POINT-BY-POINT: In this type of structure you can examine one aspect of one subject or object and the same aspect of the second subject but within the same paragraph, for example: 


SUBJECT-BY-SUBJECT: With this kind of structure you address each subject in separate paragraphs, for example:


Now I would like to share with you my practice of the week

Students Who Work and Unemployed Students: Who takes the best of this Life?

Point by point

Introduction:

Have you ever ask yourself about what are the differences and similities between students who work or unemployed students? Let me tell you some of the most common.

Paragraph 1: Students who Works and unemployed students, who have more advantage?

·         The students who work, have to pay their own studies.

·         Unemployed students have someone who pay for their studies

·         Both of them have the same academic responsabilities, but in a different way.

Paragraph 2: Students who work and unemployed students can buy their own things?

·         The students who work have the capability to buy their own things, and also save money.

·        Unemployed students depend on their parent´s to buy their things and also they have a limit on what they can buy.

·         Both students have the same learning process, but each one develop as best as they can.

Paragraph 3: Students who work and unemployed students have the same free time?

·         The students who work do not have much free time, but most of them have day off once in a week.

·      Unemployed students just have the responsability with their Studies, that’s means that they have enough time to do activities and homeworks.

Compare and Contrast Essay II

Hello my readers!!!!

Welcome again to my blog!

In this week´s class we discuss about the WRITING A COMPARE/CONTRAT ESSAY PART II in that introduced to two new prewriting techniques:

1. Venn diagram: that consist about creating a composition between two or more events, objects, and is used to creating an outline for a compare and contrat essay.

2. Chart: this consists of a box that criteria you want to focus on in comparing the items

Here is an example of a new technique that we learned this week

CHART



 

Driving a car or Riding a bus?

 

In El Salvador it is common to see people travel by bus to go to their jobs, shopping etc, but now more cars are observed than buses. Nowadays having a car is not luxury is a necessity but not all people have the possibility of buying or having one. But have you ever asked yourself about what is better, travel by car or by bus? Well, I would like to share with you some differences aspects between travel by car and travel by bus.

First, time is important for those who driving and for those who travel by public transport (buses), in the case of traveling by bus, the passenger does not care about the trajectory, but the time, which lasts the trip to their destination, but speaking of the driver is the one who gets tired and is the one who must measure the time of the trip, but in the case of people who drive their own car driving for many hours is very exhausting, but they control their own time.

Second, the Cost, this changes depending on the situation, in the case of travel by bus the passenger just pay for the ticket fare with an accesible Price for example: $0.25, $0.35 cents or depeding of the trajectory of the bus and the route, but if you use the car you have to buy gasoline, for maintenance, pay for parkig etc, and other things that can cost a lot, so my recomendation in this case is travel by bus because you can save money.

Third, The traffic stress, this is something that many people struggle to avoid, but that always happens. In the case of traveling by bus, you reduce stress, because you do not have to drive, and if you are sit, you can have a nap while in traffic, but in the case of the driver has to deal with the traffic, but if you travel by car, you might stress if there are any accident, and you have to wait in line and you have to deal with traffic.

On the other hand, findind parking is so difficult in some ways, if you are travel by bus, that is not a problem, because the transport driver leaves the Passenger in front of the stop of their destination, but if you travel by car in some places such as mall, restaurants, etc, is difficult and stressful to find a parking space, so that means in that case is better travel by bus.

And the last but not the least, the comfort is very important since most people look for comfort as something fundamental in any aspect, but in the case of travel by bus sometimes it is bad or uncomfortable, the passenger usually sits with unknown people, and also that transportation usually comes full and personally I could say that it's very uncomfortable for people to push you or pass you carrying, but if you travel by car you are free to do you want such as listening your favorite music, make up if you are girl etc, and also you travel with your family or friends.

To sum up, both means of transport have their differences; but that depends of the person and what suits them best, but where would you prefer to travel by car or by bus?

Compare and contrast essays.

 Hello my readers!! 

Welcome back to my blog!! 

Now that we are starting a new register, the first topic was about compare and contrast essays, you might ask, what is that about? well, the compare and contrast essays the main idea of those types of essays is to compare and find the differences between two topics that might look the same, in this oportunity I would like to share with you a video that I think you will find interesting, this is about dogs and cats and their differences and similarities, I hope you enjoy it!! 



Also I would like to share with you my composition about cats and dogs and their differences, and if you want to know more about how different their are you can watch this video 



Having a cat or having a dog, which is the best one?

Cats and dogs are the most favorite and common pets in the whole world. Cats and dogs since ancient times have been one of the many pets that has been considered a favorite by people in the world. But we know some differences that characterize them one from the other. For one thing cats are more generally cheaper and less demanding and more independent pets, but on the other, dogs are obedient, loyal but require more attention and love than the cats, but what do you think is better? What is it that draws people's attention to choosing between a dog or a cat? Now I would like to show you some differences between them.

First, cats are usually solitary animals and they don't mind being left home alone, so you don't have to worry about leaving them alone, even though they sleep all day if possible. Dogs are animals with more feelings and they will wait for you at the door all day, without moving at any time. This is something that characterizes them from others, they are honest, loving, and you have them unconditionally at all times.

Second, cats will love you in their own way, that is, they do not always show that affection to their owners or even sometimes they believe that they are superior to their owners, an example of this is my cats, they do what they want at all. Sometimes they even pretend to be the important ones and think they are more than one. In the case of dogs, they will love you if you treat them well or, sometimes, whatever happens, they show their love with caresses, moving their tails, licking you etc. They are unconditional and will love you no matter how you are.

 To sum up, pets are important in our life because they help people manage loneliness and reduce the stress of life. In my case I have 3 cats, 2 dogs and 1 turtle and I love them in the same way. Now tell me which pet do you prefer and want in your life?
