About This Topic

Like a compare and contrast essay, a contrast essay asks you to choose two or more items and ideas and write about them.  However, instead of highlighting similarities between the two things, a contrast essay will describe how they are different.  It is important to note that, in order to have an effective contrast essay, there must be some similarities or shared middle ground between the things being contrasted.  A contrast essay that focused on the differences between a roller skate and the planet Jupiter would contain a lot of contrast, but would be almost incoherent.  However, a contrast essay that focused on the differences in Earth and Jupiter would start from the point where they are similar (planets in the same solar system) and then highlight differences.

Quality of care may influence employment in a number of ways. Parents may be unwilling to leave their children in a low-quality, dangerous environment or with adults who do not supply a motivating or warm environment. This may be a particular dilemma for lower-income families, who have more inadequate choices of providers. On the contrary, a secure, warm, motivating environment may persuade employment and longer hours of work.
