机器人总动员非语言符号：机器人总动员WALL

WALL · E waved happily even though no one waved back. Moving forward, WALL · E tilted his head and saw the holo-graphic screens that all the reclining humans had in front of their faces. He noticed that what the humans lacked in leg strength, they more than made up for in powerful high-tech devices that provided them with information, fed them, and even moved them. The humans seemed bored and without purpose. Their world was completely digital. No one had any motivation to do anything. Bots served the humans’ every need.

Still, WALL · E kept waving at them. He had not seen a human being in centuries!

尽管没有人回应他，瓦力还是开心地向他们挥手。向前行驶时，瓦力歪了歪脑袋，看见每个斜倚着的人类面前都放置着全息影像屏幕。他发现虽然人类的腿部没有力量，但是他们用强大的高科技装置进行了弥补，它们能提供信息、给他们喂食、甚至移动他们。这些人类看来百无聊赖，漫无目的。他们的世界完全数字化了。没有人有动力去做任何事情。机器人满足了人类所有的需求。 瓦力继续朝着他们挥手。

几百年来他一个人类都没有看到过！
