A. compare and contrast the primary objectives of an automotive manual detailing how to change a tire versus a child’s recipe book that shows how to bake cookies. what are the objectives of these two documents? how are the objectives similar? how do they differ? how do the different audiences change the language and format used by the author of these documents? b. compare and contrast a contract for a cell phone service plan with a warranty for the purchase of the same cell phone. what are the objectives of these two documents? how are the objectives similar? how do they differ?

A.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
