You are writing a compare and contrast essay; your thesis is provided below. When deciding whether to live in the country or the city, first consider the pros and cons of living in each environment.
Which of the following points of comparison would most effectively support your thesis?

A.)Pace of life, cost of living, convenience

B.)Apartments, condominiums, townhomes

C.)Small towns, farmsteads, ranches

D.)Subways, trains, taxi cabs

The correct answer is A.) Pace of life, cost of living, convenience

Explanation:

The purpose of a comparison and contrast essay is to explain the differences and similarities of two elements. This means the points of comparison, and contrast should apply to the two elements and support the thesis.

In the case presented if you need to compare living in the country vs living in the city, your points should be general enough to apply to the city and the country. Also, they should help you to explain common points and differences. According to this, the best option is "Pace of life, cost of living, convenience" because these points are general enough to apply to both context and help you support the thesis. For example, you can explain the cost of living is higher in cities, which is a key difference or contrast. Also, elements such as taxi, small towns, ranches, or townhomes only apply to one of the elements and due to this, they cannot be used to analyze both elements together.
