1. Definitions and Descriptions
1.1. defines and describes the function of a technical object
1.1.1. 1. Description: What is it?
1.1.1.1. The Waste Allocation Load Lifter: Earth-Class (WALL-E) is an environmentally friendly waste processing robot.
1.1.2. 2. Purpose: What does it do?
1.1.2.1. These robots were designed to clean up the planet by collecting and compacting waste into cubes (Pixar, n.d.).
1.1.3. 3. Appearance: What does it look like (physical appearance or in practice)?
1.1.3.1. Pixar Wiki (n.d.) describes the WALL-E units as coloured a similar yellow to construction vehicles with hydraulic arms which extend to collect waste.
1.1.4. 4. Composition: What are its main parts?
1.1.4.1. The article further details the robots’ other purpose-specific components, such as a solar-powered power source, a central motherboard which controls the robot, and the waste compactor function.
2. Cause and Effect
2.1. make a logical argument
2.2. explain a process
2.3. explain an incident and why it occurred
2.3.1. Humans’ wasteful way of life in the 21st century led to planet Earth becoming incapable of sustaining human life. Human behaviours such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation and livestock farming contributed to the increase of toxic gas concentrations (European Commission, n.d.). Overconsumption of Earth’s natural resources, and irresponsible disposal of rubbish have further contributed to the problem (United Nations, n.d.). These factors led to the toxicity levels on planet Earth in 2110 creating an unsustainable living environment. Humans thus left Earth on liveable spaceships, leaving millions of WALL-E robots on Earth to clean up the planet.
2.4. predict some version of future events
3. Comparison Contrast
3.1. analyse two or more things
3.1.1. ideal situation versus actual
3.1.2. calculated versus measured values
3.1.3. the advantages or one object or method
3.1.3.1. The WALL-E robot was designed to be durable and easy to maintain. This focus on durability means that the WALL-E robot lacks some of the more technologically advanced design features as compared to other robots. For example, the Extra-Terrestrial Vegetation Evaluator (EVE) uses LED eyes to probe for plant life. However, Pixar Wiki (n.d.) states that the most important design feature of the WALL-E robot is that the parts can be easily replaceable. This advantage over the more technologically advanced EVE robots means that the WALL-E robot can remain in service over many centuries. This makes this design ideal for work on Earth with minimal human intervention.
3.1.4. different published research on the topic
4. Enumeration
4.1. list or state a number of things
4.1.1. reasons
4.1.2. purposes
4.1.3. causes
4.1.4. advantages or disadvantages
4.1.4.1. There are a number of elements of the design that make the WALL-E robot environmentally friendly. First, … In addition, … Moreover… Furthermore… Finally…These factors all contribute to ensuring the WALL-E robots run in an environmentally-friendly manner.
