Have you ever made a list of things comparing which one is better? I know I have. Many people compare and contrast things without even knowing it. Whether you are comparing which movie would be better to see or which restaurant you would like to eat at, we compare things all the time. The book talks about different kinds of comparing and contrasting.
One type of comparing and contrasting is by using the block method. This would be making a simple list of all the pros and cons of the two things you are comparing. The other method would be a point-by-point method which would be choosing only a few certain points to make your statement. I usually use the block method because it is easier for me to focus on all the the points in my two subjects rather than just a few general points. I use the block method on many things without even realizing it. I believe that it is helpful to make comparisons to help make choices easier.
