1 Unit 12: When Gamma went CRAZY 120
2 GP HOME PROJECTS CONTACT SITE MAP Gamma Project: Lab Mission Statement We want to create robots which are capable of interacting with the world human intelligence by trying to implement it. Such interaction requires rich sensory and motor apparatus. Gamma, our most advanced creation, has two arms and two eyes, but is actually powered by over 30 actuated joints and dozens of sensors, including six cameras. We are also working on aspects of humanoid face design and personality. This involves developing faces for our robots using solid modelling and stereo lithography fabrication. Similarly, we are studying how people interpret robot faces as aspects of personality. TO: Alice FROM: Steve in the lab Subject: Gamma1 is missing! Hey Alice Have u seen Gamma1?? The lab door wasn t locked last night, and somebody has made a huge mess in here 121

Explain your answer. 11 Summarise the Gamma Project s mission in one line. 12 To what does such interaction on page 121 refer? Write the exact words. 13 What is a mission statement?

Done Describe the setting and the characters. Done Outline a complication. Done Describe a sequence of events. Done Resolve the complication. Done A narrative tells a story that entertains, guides or teaches. It has a beginning, middle and end. It has: complications problem, either good (happy ending) or bad (sad ending). Ideas for complications Gamma1 was stolen! But by whom? Gamma1 escaped and headed to the airport. Why? Gamma1 is hiding in the lab. It s scared because Gamma1 is reprogramming itself. 125
7 Figurative language As well as using adjectives and adverbs, good descriptive writing uses figurative language, such as metaphors, idioms and personification. Metaphors Metaphors compare one object with another without using the words as or like, eg the sea was a heaving cloth of grey. 1 Circle the metaphors in this passage. I slumped onto my refuge, my warm bed, and sighed. A blanket of leaves lay outside. What a sanctuary, safe from the demands of my beast of a brother! That boy has a heart of stone. And now Mum thinks next week is some gift she can unwrap. It s my holiday, Mum! Time is money, she replies, so I ll have to do chores. How do I explain that to my friends, guardians of my sanity? 2 What do you think the writer means when the brother is described as a beast? 3 Write metaphors to describe these characters. clever person: a house of knowledge a strong person: b lazy person: c cheeky person: d angry person: Idioms Idioms are common phrases with fixed meanings, eg it s raining cats and dogs means it is raining heavily. Some idioms are also clichés. 4 Explain the meaning of these sentences. The idioms are underlined. a My grandfather used the carrot and stick method to teach his children. b Uncle Bill was a rough diamond. 126
8 c Pull yourself together, screamed the hero. d The detective thought about calling again, but he decided it was a red herring. e You ve got your head in the sand, said the coach. Personification Personification gives animals and objects the characteristics and abilities of people, eg the branches sighed and whispered among themselves. 5 Explain how the underlined words use personification to describe actions. a The waves caressed the beach with strokes of salty foam to soothe it. b Troops of dogs patrolled the streets, keeping the peace and managing everyone s business. c The gnarled and knobbly fingers of Old Man Oak s arms clawed at the wind. 6 Match an example of personification with a noun. a the vixen b a chasm c a cave yawned wide hid its secrets behind a veil of vegetation checked her face in the stream s mirror 127
