Answer 5

Alright.
You chose two things that are about the same in many ways, but are also quite different.
That's very good.
The first thing with this essay is to find out what are the comparisons between rivers and streams.
For example, if I was writing about cats and dogs, what could I compare?
Cat/Dog Similarities;
Both animals
Both have four legs
Both have fur
Both can be domesticated
Both can be pets

After I jot down my comparisons, then I put the contrasts.

Cats;
Meow
Independent
Use a litter tray

Dogs;
Bark
Dependant on humans
Go outside to do their business

This is just an example. You should actually put meaningful contrasts, not just obvious ones, and sometimes, this can require a lot of research.
Besides meaningful contrasts/comparisons, you should sprinkle in little fun facts so the reader will not get bored.

For outlining, let me quote roanestate.edu with two primary outlines for a compare/contrast essay.
roanestate.edu's two prime outlines are ...
"Jane is distinct because…
Jane is similar to Alice in these ways
Alice is distinct because…"
or
"Differences and Similarities in Jane and Alice’s appearances
Differences and Similarities in Jane and Alice’s backgrounds
Differences and Similarities in Jane and Alice’s interests".

Basically, in Outline #1, (which I recommend), you can say it like:
Rivers are distinct because…
Rivers are similar to streams in these ways
Streams are distinct because…

I hope this helped!

Answer 10

Also in the end for that X factor you can write"both are water sources but river which is on a right path since beginning reaches its destination i.e, sea earlier than the stream which starts wrong but on the milestone at the midway it imerges with the river and starts following the right path and finally merges into the deep blue see"
