MODEL WRITING EXAMPLETHE MOTH AND THE BUTTERFLYThe moth and the butterfly are just like my cousin and me. We both belong to the samefamily but are we different! It is the same for these two insects.Both the moth and the butterfly belong to the same group of insects called Lepidoptera.Both of these insects have two sets of wings as antennae. However, they have many differencesthat set them apart.Even though the wings are similar, the butterfly’s wings are not connected while the wings ofthe moth are. This means that the moth’s wings move together when it flies.When you look at a butterfly, you see brightly colored wings and a slender body. On theother hand, you would see dull-colored wings and a much thicker body on a moth. The antennae ofthe butterfly have hooks at the end while those of a moth are more feathery.Finally, the moth and butterfly are different in their behavior. The butterfly can be seen inthe daytime while the moth is seen at dusk or at night.The butterfly and moth may be related but they are more different than alike!
