Which compare-and-contrast thesis statements are effective?

Check all that apply.

a. In "Fish Cheeks," the way a character acts shows that people don't always act like themselves around others.

b. "Fish Cheeks" and "Broken Chain" both have characters who don't always act like themselves around others, but they act that way for different reasons.

c. "Broken Chain" is a story about a boy who doesn't act like himself when girls are involved.

d. "Broken Chain" and "Fish Cheeks" are both excellent stories about what it's like to belong.

e. Both the short story and the essay show that people care what others think, but one has a character who is embarrassed about not having a bike and the other is embarrassed about her culture.

    Option "B" and "E"

    Explanation:

    I will be using rule of elimination to approach to the right answers.

    Both options "A" and "C" only describe about a single story (Fish Cheeks for "A" and Broken Chain "E", respectively) and its narrative. Their is no contrasting scenario present for comparison. Hence, these options are not effective.

    Option "D", albeit discusses both stories, but presents only the similarity in them. Thus, it is also ruled out.

    Option "B" provides the information that even though both characters posses similar trait but they have different reasons for doing so. This is an effective statement.

    Similarly, option "E" also is a right choice, as it first compares the notion of being affected by other people's opinions and then defines the contrasting reasons behind the similar character trait.
