Dear fellow computer user,

A word of advice It's time to clean out your computer If you're like me, you do not remove documents that are no longer necessary from your computer You never know when you need a file, so you don't throw it away Right? Electronic mail messages pile up, too, creating a huge warehouse of obscure file names

I found that a simple software package called Kleanit gets rid of everything I don’t need and keep the things I do I was so impressed with this package that I decided to share it with others

No longer do those bothersome extra messages and computer files waste processing time and cause my computer to perform inefficiently Kleanit makes sure that the only files in my

computer are files that relate to my current projects or routine tasks Why don’t you try it? I’ll send you trial copy and if you aren’t satisfied, send it back If you are, and yo u will be, send your check for $32.50 at your earliest convenience

Have a nice day,

Robert Horstma

CEO

His poor computer skills

His need for money

His satisfaction with the product

57 What suggestion is made in this letter?

To buy new computers

To send less email

To print out the document

To purchase new software

58 Besides documents, what else clutters memory on most computers?

Operating instructions

Directories

59 What effect does clutter have on a computer?

The computer operates slowly

The computer stops working

The computer erases files

Question 63- 66 refer to the following article

If you want to advance in your career, you will have to make some careful decisions about which jobs you take Evaluate a job offer for the value it has to your career It may mean sacrifices at first You may have to move to a different region or a different country to get a job that is right for you You may have to work late hours, at least temporarily You might even have to take a lower salary for a job that offers you the experience that you need But you should never accept a job if it is not related to your career goals Accepting a job that it not within your career path will not give you the training or experience you need or want You will find yourself frustrated in such a position and consequently will not perform your best This will have an effect on the people around you, who will not feel as if you are being part of the team The best advice is to think carefully before accepting any position and make sure the job is one you want to have
