Different authors often write about the same topic differently. When you read two different texts about the same topic, you can learn different things. This way, you can compare and contrast the authors’ points, or their ideas on a topic.
When comparing and contrasting two passages, look for:
The most important point in each text
The most important details in each text
The ideas found only in one text and not in another
