4. Subject-by-subject:. EXAMPLE:

5. SUBJECT-BY-SUBJECT BOB’S PIZZARIO PLACE uses only the highest quality ingredients. Similarly, SAMMY’S PIZZA JOINT also uses only the highest quality ingredients. Evidence……. a. b. b.1 quote Evidence……. a. b. b.1 quote Evidence……. a. a. 1 quote b. Evidence……. a. a. 1 quote b.

6. In this SUBJECT BY SUBJECT it takes two paragraphs to provide the comparison. Be careful to keep the same warrants in both paragraphs. Because you are using two different paragraphs, the claim sentence for the first does not need to cover both paragraphs. However, the claim sentence for the second paragraph should indicate that a comparison or a contrast is being made.

7. Point-by-point: Rather than addressing things one subject at a time, you may wish to talk about one point of comparison or contrast at a time. EXAMPLE:

8. POINT-BY-POINT Bob’s Pizzario Place and Sammy’s Pizza Joint both create excellent pizzas. Evidence……. a. Bob’s Pizzario Place imports………….. b. Additionally, Bob’s……….. b.1 According to …. “quote.” c. Similarly Sammy’s Pizza Joint buys….. d. Furthermore, Sammy’s ……… Evidence……. a. Bob’s Pizzario Place imports………….. b. Additionally, Bob’s……….. c. Similarly Sammy’s Pizza Joint….. d. Furthermore, Sammy’s ……… d.1. In the menu it states, “quote.”

9. In “POINT BY POINT” the contrast is done within one paragraph. Therefore, Unlike the SUBJECT BY SUBJECT style, the claim sentence must be broad enough to cover both items and indicate that a comparison or contrast is being made. Additionally, It is imperative that the writer follow a similar pattern when it comes to the evidence for each of the warrants.

10. Additionally, similar to, also similarly, In the same way, likewise, compared to, In a like manner, To help your reader keep track of where you are in the comparison/contrast, you’ll want to be sure that your TRANSITIONS are especially CLEAR AND STRONG.
