Explicação: 
The comparison-contrast pattern is used to discuss the similarities and/or differences between two or more 
ideas or occurrences in order to reveal a certain point about these ideas or occurrences. The point may be that 
one option is better than the other, that they are both equal, or that under specific conditions one option is better 
than another. Regardless of the point that is expressed, the comparison-contrast style of paragraph will follow a 
pattern which will be discussed within the examples in this section of the handout. 
A comparison-contrast paragraph or paragraph block may have one of three purposes: to present only 
comparison information, to present only contrast information, or to present both types of information. 
However, regardless of what specific purpose the paragraph has, it may be organized in either of two ways: 
alternating details or option-by-option.

reciclagem.) 
Why recycling is important? UK households produced 30.5 million tonnes of waste in 2003/04, 
of which 17% was collected for recycling. (source: defra.gov.uk) 
This figure is still quite low compared to some of our neighbouring EU countries, some 
recycling over 50% for their waste. There is still a great deal of waste which could be recycled 
that ends up in landfill sites which is harmful to the environment. Recycling is an excellent way 
of saving energy and conserving the environment. Did you know that: - 1 recycled tin can 
would save enough energy to power a television for 3 hours. - 1 recycled glass bottle would 
save enough energy to power a computer for 25 minutes. - 1 recycled plastic bottle would save 
enough energy to power a 60-watt light bulb for 3 hours. - 70% less energy is required to 
recycle paper compared with making it from raw materials.

To achieve paragraph unity, a writer must ensure two things only. First, the paragraph must have a single

the negation of a statement which attributes a quality or characteristic activity to something or someone (esp.

somehow better, at least implicitly, than others.

Irrelevant sentences are those that do not support the main idea of the passage. Irrelevant sentences distract 
readers from the main point of the passage. This is because they do not relate to or support the main idea. Therefore, 
it is necessary to avoid using irrelevant sentences in writing and to be able to spot them as a reader. The simplest 
way to identify irrelevant sentences in a passage is to ask yourself the following three questions:
