When we contrast two things, we tell how they are different.  \nHere are two stories. As you read, think about how the stories are alike and how they are different.  \n\n| The Helpful Hike\u003Cbr>Aria and her younger brother Mateo joined a group hike through a state park. Each hiker carried a backpack filled with water, snacks and a small first-aid kit. Aria had hiked before and felt confident. Mateo, however, was new to hiking and wasn’t sure what to expect. At first, the trail was easy. The path was flat, and Mateo kept up with the group. Soon, though, the trail became steep and rocky. Mateo slowed down and began to fall behind. His backpack felt heavier with each step. He grew tired and uncomfortable.\u003Cbr>Aria noticed her brother struggling. She quietly took one of his snack packs and his water bottle to lighten his load. With a smaller burden, Mateo was able to keep walking.\u003Cbr>| The Shortcut Trouble\u003Cbr>Seth and his cousin Jayden walked home from school on a warm spring afternoon. Their usual path followed a long sidewalk that stretched past houses and stores.\u003Cbr>On this day, Jayden noticed a dirt path that led into the woods. He believed it would be a quicker way home. So, instead of staying on the sidewalk, the boys turned onto the trail. It was easy to follow at first, but as they walked deeper into the woods, the ground grew muddy. Seth slipped in the mud and fell. Jayden tried to help but lost his balance and fell too. Now both boys were wet and covered in dirt!\u003Cbr>|\n| --- | --- |\n\n\n| They reached the top of the hill just asthe sun peeked through the trees. A stream sparkled in the sunlight, and a deer stepped into view to take a drink. Mateo took a deep breath and smiled. Aria watched him and felt glad she had helped. By the time they returned to the parking lot, Mateo was tired but proud. He had finished the hike, thanks to Aria’s small act of kindness. | They tried to find their way back to the road, but the trail had split in several directions. The shortcut had turned into amaze. They finally found the correct path after wandering for a long time. When they reached home, they were late, muddy and frustrated. What was supposed to be a quick trip had taken much longer. The shortcut had seemed like a good idea at first, but in the end, it only caused problems. |\n| --- | --- |\n\nSome of the details below are true about just one of the stories.
