Writing a Comparative Analysis Using a Common Theme — Quiz

Question 2 • English Language Arts 11

In a subject-by-subject comparative essay, each body paragraph must

Answer
A
rely on few supportive details.
B
support the thesis statement.
C
present a separate viewpoint of the topic.
D
depend on opinion rather than fact.

Explanation

Each body paragraph in a comparative essay should develop one part of the essay’s argument and connect it to the thesis. Supportive details help explain and prove that connection; relying on only a few details, presenting unrelated viewpoints, or depending on opinion rather than facts would weaken the essay. The correct choice is “support the thesis statement.”
