Task 1 01-09-2014

This document provides examples of language structures useful for comparing and contrasting information such as transitions, subordinating conjunctions, and comparative structures. Transitions like "however" and "on the other hand" introduce differences, while subordinating conjunctions like "whereas" and "while" compare two ideas. Other structures compare quantities such as "twice as much" or describe how one thing accounts for "far less" than something else.
