Introduction to Purpose and Form
This opening section introduces fundamental concepts for comparing texts by purpose and form worksheet activities. The content explores the relationship between textual form and intended audience.
Definition: Form refers to the type of text while purpose describes the writer's intended goal.
Highlight: The distinction between public and private audiences significantly influences both the purpose and language choices in texts.
Example: A personal letter typically targets a private audience, while a news article aims at a public readership.
Reader Response and Text Comparison
This section examines how different methods of writing influence reader response, with practical examples from different time periods.
Highlight: Understanding reader response is crucial for effective text comparison.
Example: The section provides two contrasting texts about aerial accidents - a modern magazine article about paramotoring and a 19th-century newspaper account of a balloon accident.
Textual Analysis Techniques
This section focuses on comparing structural and stylistic elements between texts.
Highlight: Both texts demonstrate similar dramatic techniques despite their different time periods.
Example: The use of similes in both texts: "dropping like a stone" and "pounded by the largest Armstrong missile."
Practical Text Comparison
The section presents real-world examples of text comparison using extracts about sea-bathing.
Quote: "Thames tummy set in and set me back in a big way."
Highlight: The extract demonstrates how personal experiences can be conveyed differently across various text forms.
Organizational Methods
This section introduces practical methods for organizing comparative analysis.
Highlight: Tables and Venn diagrams are presented as useful tools for structuring comparative analysis.
Example: The section includes a detailed comparison table showing how to analyze different aspects of texts systematically.
Exam Preparation Guidelines
This section provides specific guidance for handling non-fiction text comparison in examination conditions.
Highlight: Texts in exams may span the 19th, 20th, or 21st centuries, requiring understanding of historical context.
Vocabulary: Non-fiction texts require analysis of language specific to their historical period.
Comparative Analysis Examples
This section presents practical examples of food-related text comparisons.
Example: Analysis of a 1855 cookery book extract by Alexis Soyer, focusing on descriptive language and attitude toward food.
Sample Answer Analysis
This section examines effective comparative writing techniques.
Highlight: Key elements of successful comparison include embedded quotations and focus on writers' methods.
Advanced Writing Techniques
The final section demonstrates sophisticated comparative analysis.
Example: Description of food using vivid language: "velvety Cavolo Nero" and "feathered carrots."
Highlight: Effective use of comparative linking words and phrases enhances analysis quality.

This app has made me feel so much more confident in my exam prep, not only through boosting my own self confidence through the features that allow you to connect with others and feel less alone, but also through the way the app itself is centred around making you feel better. It is easy to navigate, fun to use, and helpful to anyone struggling in absolutely any way.

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

I know a lot of apps use fake accounts to boost their reviews but this app deserves it all. Originally I was getting 4 in my English exams and this time I got a grade 7.
