Answer
this is definitely your paper, you can write it yourself. and if it's only "2 paragraphs small not too much writing" than it shouldn't be a problem for you.
but to help you with your question, here is a comparison of the two in various categories other than technology.
Politically
USSR: Strong socialist state. Permanent seat on the UN Security Council. Strong ties with Eastern Europe, anti-colonialist movements, labor parties, and some countries in Latin America, Southeast Asia, and Africa.
USA: Strong and stable capitalist federation/constitutional republic. Permanent seat on the UN Security Council plus two allies with permanent seats. Strong ties with Western Europe, Latin America, British Commonwealth, and several East Asian countries.
Geographically
USSR: Largest country in the world, with a land area of 22.27 million km²
USA: Fourth largest country in the world, with an area of approximately 9.37 million km²
Culturally
USSR: Wielded influence through Communist and left-wing dictatorships and organizations around the world. Rich cultural heritage based around classical music, ballet, literature, theater, chess. Freedom of speech and expression heavily restricted although allegedly guaranteed for all citizens.
USA: Wielded influence by supporting democracies and right-wing dictatorships. Very influential in music, TV, films, art, and fashion through such mediums as Hollywood. Freedom of speech and other guaranteed rights for citizens.
Militarily
USSR: Essentially land-based: largest armed forces in the world and one of the two largest, and advanced air forces in the world. One of the world's strongest navies. The world's largest stockpile of nuclear weapons for the second half of the Cold War. Allied to Warsaw Pact countries in Eastern Europe. Global intelligence network, the KGB, known as the leader in foreign intelligence gathering. Ties with paramilitary and guerrilla groups in the developing world. Large armament production for the global market.
USA: Essentially naval-based advanced military with the highest military expenditure in the world. World's largest navy surpassing the next 13 largest navies combined, with bases all over the world, particularly in an incomplete "ring" bordering the Warsaw Pact to the West, South and East. Largest nuclear arsenal in the world during the first half of the Cold War. One of the largest armies in the world. One of the two largest, and advanced air forces in the world. Powerful military allies in Western Europe (NATO) with their own nuclear capabilities. Global intelligence network, the CIA. Ties with paramilitary and guerrilla groups in the developing world. Large armament production through defense contractors along with its developed allies for the global market.
Economically
USSR: Second largest economy in the world. Enormous mineral and energy resources and large farming areas. Largely self-sufficient, though not agriculturally so. Marxist economic theory based primarily on production: industrial production directed by centralized state organs leading to a high degree of inefficiency. Five-year plans frequently used to accomplish economic goals.
USA: Largest economy in the world. Large resources of minerals, energy resources, metals, and timber, large and modernized farming industry and large industrial base. Home to many large global corporations. U.S. Dollar as the dominant world reserve currency under Bretton Woods. Western economic theory based on supply and demand: production determined by customers' demands. Allied with G7 major economies. Supported allied countries' economies via such programs as the Marshall Plan.
Demographically
USSR: Had a population of 286.7 million in 1989, the third largest on Earth behind China and India (this included all of the provinces of the USSR, not just that of Russia).
USA: Had a population of 248.7 million in 1990, at that time the fourth largest on Earth.
The writing shouldn't be hard. Read what's above, do some additional research, and make some observations. Apply them to why you think these two are rivals, and you've basically done your assignment

Are all Americans fat? Discuss.?
Lord Coe
Don't want to offend people if its not true but thats what i was told by my big brother who has just come back from USA.
Answer
You know, I travel quiet a bit and I have to tell you, I donât think it really matters where you call home. I believe we as a people (for the most part) are getting pretty reliant upon the automated, instant gratification portion of the TV, Movie Theater, Stadium Seat aspect of life. We tend to sit around and watch the few people who are doing something instead of getting out there and doing something.
But I have seen my fair share of âlarge human beingsâ in places like Great Briton, Germany, France, Spain, Poland, Mexico, Australia, and here in the United States. Of course the U.S. is massive in relation to most all of the previously mentioned countries, so making the comment that âallâ American citizens are fat is pretty ludicrous. Imagine taking all the over weight people in G.B. and multiplying that by a factor of ten. Then youâd be able to make a better comparison, generally speaking of course.
But no, most American citizens are just like you and your fellow countrymen. There are just those who tend to sit back more than get out and do more.
