Normal

When we compare and contrast, we look at how things are similar and different. For example, let's compare a cat and a dog. Both are pets and can be friendly, but cats usually like to be alone, while dogs enjoy playing with people. By comparing and contrasting, we can understand more about each animal and what makes them special.
