Worked example

A backpack and a basket both carry things. A backpack has shoulder straps; a basket may have a hand handle. Compare carrying method with carrying method.

Two Book-Carrying Plans

Plan A: Reuse a cloth bag already at home. It folds into a small space and keeps hands free when carried on a shoulder. It has no wheels. Plan B: Use a small wheeled cart that the school can lend. It rolls heavier book stacks, but needs more storage space and is harder to take up stairs. Neither plan requires buying a new item.

1. What do both plans have in common? They have wheels. They avoid buying a new item. They fold into a pocket.

2. Which plan has wheels? Plan A Both plans Plan B

3. Which comparison is supported? The bag needs less storage space than the cart. Both need the same space. The cart folds smaller than the bag.

4. For a heavy stack on a level corridor, which feature favors the cart? It has no wheels. It can roll heavier stacks. It is easier on stairs.

5. Which information is NOT provided? Whether either needs a new purchase. Whether the cart has wheels. The exact weight each can carry.
