The meaning behind that simile is that ‘they’ are getting tons of gold like they were corn grains which if you’ve seen them, there’s a lot in just one corn. So basically those people were getting a lot of gold.

A. Compare and contrast the primary objectives of an automotive manual detailing how to change a tire versus a child’s recipe bo
babunello [35]

A.

  • <em>What are the objectives of these two documents? </em>

The objective of the first manual is to teach readers how to change a tire. The objective of the recipe book is to teach readers how to bake cookies.

  • <em>How are the objectives similar? How do they differ? </em>

Both documents are similar in that they want to teach someone how to perform an activity. They are probably similar in their structure as well (most likely a list of steps).

They are likely to be different in their complexity, the audience they target and the amount of technical vocabulary they use.

  • <em>How do the different audiences change the language and format used by the author of these documents? </em>

The child's recipe book is likely to have very simple language and to contain few steps. The automotive manual, on the other hand, is likely to have more technical language, more steps and require more ability and training.

B.

  • <em> What are the objectives of these two documents? </em>

The contract outlines the responsibilities between the phone company and the user in terms of their business relationship and the terms of service. The warranty, on the other hand, provides a mechanism for compensating the user if the phone or the service do not work as they should.

  • <em>How are the objectives similar? How do they differ?</em>

The objectives are similar in that they both address the same person and they both outline the responsibilities of the phone company. They are different in their purposes and in the topics they each deal with.
