the purpose of a compare/contrast essay should never be more than simple comparison or contrast.
false
true

Explanation:

Question 1

To determine if Harkness changes her tone at the end of her essay, we analyze typical essay structures and tone shifts. In many essays, including Harkness's, a tone change (e.g., to more reflective or conclusive) often occurs at the end. So the statement is likely true.

Timandra Harkness is an expert in her field (e.g., media, culture). A casual tone in writing can be a stylistic choice, not due to lack of expertise. So the claim that she uses a casual tone because she's not an expert is false.

A compare/contrast essay’s purpose can go beyond simple comparison/contrast (e.g., to argue a point, show significance). So the statement that it should never be more is false.

Answer:

True
