OUTLINE:

Introduction:In essay, New York City and Quetzaltenango, Guatemala are compared and contrasted. Thesis statement: When you compare them, they seem like dramatically different places, but they have some things in common, and I love them both.

Body Paragraph 1:Topic sentence which focuses on similarities: There are many reasons why New York seems like my home away from home. similarities between two cities: Both cities are- striking and distinctive- have a nickname and central park

Body Paragraph 2:Topic sentence which focuses on differences: Despite their similarities, these cities are different.differences between two cities:- color- pace of life

Conclusion:summary of the similarities and differencesMy Two Homes

A. In New York, many people wear black to be stylish, but in Xela stylish clothing is the rainbow-colored clothing of the indigenous people. And because Xela is smaller, the beautiful green mountains outside the city are always visible.


B. In the evening, my Guatemalan city definitely sleeps. Some younger people go out dancing and come families take a walk in the city`s Central Park, but by ten o`clock the streets are pretty deserted.

C. There are two places that have had profound impact in my life. One of them is New York City, and the other is Quetzaltenango, Guatemala.

D. For example, each has its own nickname. everyone knows New York is "the Big Apple." Quetzaltenango is known as "Xela" (pronounced shey-la), which is a lot easier to say!

E. When you compare them, they seem like dramatically different places, but they have some things in common, and I love them both.

F. There are many reasons why New York seems like my home away from home. Both cities are striking and distinctive.

G. At lunch they order food from work and eat their desks. In Xela people eat their breakfast at home and most come home from work a much more relaxed and longer lunch.

H. At lunch they order food from work and eat their desks. In Xela people eat their breakfast at home and most come home from work a much more relaxed and longer lunch.

I. Second, both cities have a "Central Park" where people like to go and walk. Furthermore, when you walk around Xela, you find many tourists and people from other countries, just like in New York. For me, this means conversations in Xela are just as interesting as conversations in New York.

J. Despite their similarities, these cities are different. Life in Xela is more colorful and the pace of life is slower. For this reason, whenever I return to Xela, it is like an escape. When I arrive, the first thing I notice is the color.

K. On the other hand, New Yorkers are often in such a hurry, they don` even stop to eat. For breakfast they buy food on the street, and eat it while they are walking or on the subway.

L. These places represent the best of both worlds. New York is more hurried and rushed when I need energy, and Xela gives me a shower pace when I need to relax. Together they keep me balanced.

M. The second thing I notice is the pace of life. They say New York never sleeps, and it must be true, because I always see people walking and cars on the streets, even late at night.

N. In conclusion, these are the two cities I love. For me, both are home, are unique, and are filled with interesting people.

O. Although Central Park in Xela is smaller, its tropical flowers and colonial architecture mean it is just as beautiful as New York`s.


CONTRASTIVE LINKERS

Contrastive connectors can be grouped into four grammatrcal classes:· Sentence connectors (traditionally called sentence adverbs)occur at the beginmng of a sentence to link one sentence containing a cause with the effect or result in another one. * Conjunctions (also known as adverbs and co-ordinate conjunction S) are those signposts that function withm a single sentence to Imk causes with effects. · Subordinators (also known as subordinate conjunctions)usually combme with full clauses: however, they can also be used with noun phrases when the main clause has a"human"subject. Subordinators mamly differ from the other signposts m that they help to move the stress to ideas expressed m the main clause. · Prepositions combme with noun phrases and gerunds (-ing)forms to contrast ideas within the same sentence.

Based on the description above conduct research, experiment using the words below in sentences, and categorise the following under the four grammatical classes above

However... But Although...,... In contrast to + noun, Nevertheless... Yet (even) though...,... Contrary to...,... Nonetheless,... Nor While...,... Unlike...,... on the other hand... on the contrary... Instead of...,... Alternatively,... Instead...Albeit Whereas...,... Despite...,... In contrast,... Inspite of...,... Conversely... Notwithstanding...,...

Work in pairs. Choose any 2 elements of the Dracula Showdown video, 2 films, 2 characters for example, and write a compare and contrast essay using the linkers above. There is a 250 word limit for this essay. Please be ready to share it in class.
