Questions 155-157 refer to the following article.

Community Victory

After a months-long battle to stop the development of a new shopping mall on the
location of the former Rivervalley Courthouse, residents, local businesses, and civic
groups are cheering the decision to keep the 150-year-old building intact. - [1] - "We're
dissappointed," added Branford Construction's CEO. "We felt that the community
would benefit and grow, but obviously, residents want to preserve their history and I
respect that."
Instead, efforts are being made to restore the old deserted courthouse to its former
glory, - [2] - "The community is getting together for this and we are collecting
donations to have the building renovated," said local resident Enid Iran. "We hope to
make a public library or school out of the building."
- [3] - "it's been here for as long as 1 can remember. In fact, my grandfather worked
as a clerk there," added a local business owner, Kevin Lamb. "It's an iconic symbol of
our community and we don't want it destroyed." The community has already raised
over $100,000 through an online petition and donations keep pouring in. - [4] - The
community hopes that restoration of the building begins within the next couple of
months.

Important Notice

Dear Castelli customers,

Our quality assurance team has revealed that five hundred jars of Castelli's Classic
Spaghetti Sauce do not meet our high standards of product quality.

The defect has been caused by an improper seal on the lid of the jar and may have
resulted in the contents spoiling due to contact with air. We are currently warning
customers not to eat this product.

What you should do: If you have already purchased a jar of Castelli's Classic Spaghetti
Sauce, please send an e-mail to our Customer Service Department at
cs@castellifood.com. One of our employees will provide you with a product
replacement voucher. Please include your name, full address, phone number, and the
product's serial number in the e-mail. Customers will receive a $12 voucher for each jar
purchased. Please do not try to get a refund for this product at a retailer.

Please remember that no other Castelli food products are affected. We encourage you to
continue purchasing our products.

Bike Tours of the Anchorage Countryside to Start August 6

May 2—The Anchorage Bike Club will be hosting an annual bike riding event this summer,
beginning on August 6 and running through August 7. The event will start at 10:00 A.M.
on both days at the Anchorage Community Center. If you are driving a vehicle to the
starting point, it would be better to use the parking lot behind the community center.

Anchorage Bike Club President Jean Frost stated, "The rides will range from 5 to 20 miles
and will take bikers through scenic areas in Anchorage. Overall, the bike tours will go ahead
at a leisurely pace so that bikers of all skill levels can participate. However, local bikers with
ample experience might lead a faster-paced group."

Bikers in the tours will learn about riding techniques, bicycle maintenance, and proper
nutrition half an hour before the event starts. All participants must have biking helmets on.
They are also encouraged to bring their own water to prevent dehydration while biking.

Questions 155-157 refer to the following article.

Grandview Business News

The Burnelle's launched their meal delivery service for busy families just six months
ago, and the business is flourishing, exceeding expectations. - [1] - Their small shop
Farm-to-Table, located in Central Grandview Heights, has been forced to increase staff
by 120% to keep up with demand. The whole premise of the idea came up after Rachel
and Robert Burnelle had their first child. Both working parents had constantly turned
to fastfood for their meals and realized that many of their friends did as well. They
wanted healthier options which most fast-food fanchises don't provide. - [2] - The
business is so popular that they have been getting orders from outside the city. "The
response has been overwhelming," says Rachel. "Our customers especially appreciate
the freshness and quality of our meals." Janet, a customer from the start added, "Not
only is the food healthy, it's not that much more expensive than fast-food meals, but
it's much better for you." - [3] -
The Burnelles say they are planning to expand their delivery routes and open three
Farm-to-Table grocery shops with ready-made meals around the city of Grandview
within the next year. - [4] -

Colonial Heights Nursing Home

Colonial Heights is proud to have served the elderly population of Houston, Texas, for
over 30 years. Our nursing home is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities. Our five-
story building allows each floor to offer individualized levels of care for our residents.
Our building houses a rehabilitation gym and we also provide psychological counseling
services for residents.

We currently have openings for several positions. We are looking to hire a nursing home
administrator who has at least three years of experience and a valid license. There
is also an opening for an admissions coordinator. Those applying for the admissions
coordinator job must have a bachelor's degree and at least two years of related
experience. We are also looking for hospice workers who can provide personal care to
residents in a compassionate and caring manner. Previous experience is not necessary,
so everyone interested is welcome to apply for this position.

Dear Mr. Morris,

24/7 Fitness is the most successful workout facility in the United States. With over
3 million members nationwide, our franchise has become known as a reputable and
trustworthy brand. Our success is a result of great relationships between us the
franchiser and our franchisees.

You are receiving this mailing because you expressed interest in partnering with 24/7
Fitness in order to open a new location in your town. According to our preliminary
research, your town has a large population of young, single people working in the
professional field. This is our target demographic, and it means the business outlook for
your 24/7 Fitness location is positive in your town. If you would like more information
about the specific terms and regulations when partnering with 24/7 Fitness, please
don't hesitate to call me at 347-555-3363. Additionally, if you would like to talk to
another franchise owner, that information can be supplied by one of our associates.

Subject: 24/7 Fitness
Date: March 7

Dear Mr. Morris,


II am happy to provide some insight into the operation of a 24/7 Fitness franchise. II have
been working with 24/7 Fitness as a franchise owner for 10 years now. I actually run three
different branches now. II completely agree with you that trust and honesty are the two most
important aspects of any business relationship. On that count, II believe the fact that I own
three franchises is testament to my faith in the franchiser.
Let me put your mind at ease. First off, 24/7 Fitness has a very specific way that they want
their brand to develop no matter who owns the branch. The parent company will not only
provide training, but they insist on controlling the actual layout of the facilities from the locker
rooms to the free weights. They want any of their 3 million members to be able to walk into
any one of their gyms and feel at home. Until you have been operating for one full year,
you must make monthly reports to corporate headquarters detailing all aspects of sales,
membership, and a flow chart describing the usage of the facilities. It really is hands on until
they have confidence you can represent the brand. II hope this helps you decide to join the
24/7 Fitness team!
All the best,
Zack Carter

Questions 165-167 refer to the following memo.

Unsworthy Manufacturing

Date: Wednesday, October 17


B
Subject; Recycling

In response to pressure from local environmental groups, as of November 1 we will


be separating all of our industrial waste for recycling. Collections will be made twice
weekly on Tuesdays and Fridays from the regional recycling center, which will be
supplying colored receptacles for different kinds of waste. All oils should be placed
in the green container. All metals and glass belong in the red one. All paper waste
should go into the blue one. Plastics will be collected for recycling as normal.
As this new policy also carries a financial benefit to the company, managers in
all manufacturing bays are responsible for ensuring that the new protocols for
waste disposal are followed, and failure to comply with the policy could result in
disciplinary action.
Further information about our updated environmental practices will shortly be
available on the website. Training sessions for managers will be held on Monday,
October 22, but please contact me if you have any further questions in the
meantime.
Regards,
Davis Jeeland
Operations Director, Unsworthy Manufacturing

Subject; Overdraft Review
Date: June 6

Dear Ms. Summers,

I am sorry to hear of your misfortunes. According to our account data, we see that you
did contact us and freeze your accounts, though it looks like it was too late to prevent
the withdrawal and subsequent overdraft of your account. It is a little bit unusual that
the transaction that caused the overdraft was at an ATM machine a day after you
say that you lost your card. Have you given your access pin to anybody recently? I
would be happy to pass your request for overdraft relief on to our fraud department,
but you will need to file a police report and then send us the case number that the
investigating officer gives you. Once we receive this number, we can proceed with our
review of your case.
Thank you and good day,

Dear Ms. Ross,

You contacted us last week in order to ask some of our computer programmers to help your
company develop a website. JM Solutions would be happy to offer you our services.

As II said on the phone, we will help design and program a website that will attract more
customers and offer an online sales platform. During this time, we will need to hold meetings with
your marketing division in order to best capture your company's goals. Once the website has
been completed in mid-February next year, we will hold a training seminar in order to train your
employees in the skills necessary to maintain and update your website. The website development
and training seminar will cost a total of $32,000. We request that a deposit of 10% be paid in
advance. Please see the attached file for detailed costs and schedules.

We look forward to working with you in the near future. Our staff members will strive to meet all
your needs. Therefore, just let me know when your marketing division is available to meet us in
person and discuss some of the details of the project. Please contact me at your convenience.

Madison Business Update

November 15—Sun Microchips is the largest producer in the country of the integrated
circuits that go into computers, smartphones, and other digital electronics. The
company has recently built a new factory in Madison and will begin operations
starting in January of next year. The chief executive officer of Sun Microchips, Melinda
Piers, stated that, "As the market for consumer electronics continues to become larger
and larger globally, companies like Sun Microchips are expanding to meet the needs."

"We are looking to hire a variety of people such as factory workers, personnel
employees, and accountants. We expect the opening of the factory to create over
200 jobs in Madison," said Ms. Piers. She noted that the company will try to hire local
applicants first, but that those living outside of Madison are also encouraged to apply.

Applicants must submit their resume by November 25 by e-mailing Tina Zimmerman


at tzimmerman@sunmicrochips.com. Sun Microchips will be holding interviews
next month on two separate dates. Those applying as general laborers for jobs on
the assembly line should schedule an interview between December 3 and 8. Those

Dear Ms. Glenn,

I'm writing to let you know that you have one more student who has signed up for your
class. Your new student is Jane Meyers and she will bring the $100 registration fee with her
to the first class on Monday.

Also, on Monday, please give Ms. Meyers and any other new members the form they will
need to fill out. 1 have attached the necessary paperwork to this e-mail. All you have to do is
to print out copies and hand them out.

Your class now has nine members that will attend and is, therefore, almost at full capacity.
In fact, all of the classes this summer have proved very popular, and I anticipate they will all

Issue with the Blackbeard's Pirate Ship Model

August 3, 10:55 A.M.

II recently purchased aa model kit from the Mega Hobby online store. II bought the
Blackbeard's Pirate Ship model to put together with my son, and II am having aa problem,
problem.
After carefully reading the instruction manual, II noticed that aa few essential parts have
been left out of the box. Specifically, some parts that make up the mast and sail seem to
be absent from the kit. II have bought many models from Mega Hobby for years and have
always been happy with the products II received.

Has anyone else had the same problem with this kit? My son and II were planning to
submit our finished model to aa local model building contest at the end of the month, and
we are very disappointed with this setback. If anyone else has any experience with this
problem and solved it, II would greatly appreciate your advice.

Hi John,
john,

II also recently purchased the Blackbeard's Pirate Ship model from the Mega Hobby
online store for my son and had the same problem that you did. At first, II thought II
must have been mistaken, but after checking the list of all parts in the instruction
manual, II determined that several parts must have been missing from the kit at the
time of sale. II took the kit back to my local Mega Hobby store and aa staff member
confirmed my suspicion. The Mega Hobby employee was nice enough to exchange
my model kit for one that had all of the parts. With the new kit, my son and II were
able to put together the model exactly like the picture on the box. II suggest that you
go to the Mega Hobby store closest to your home and ask them to exchange your
defective product. Be sure to make aa note of the order number when you go there.

TOE IC RC 1000
Hello everybody, I have called this meeting to talk about some of the problems that
our new store policy of staying open later has caused. At first, this seemed like a great
idea to help customers who worked all day. I know it can be hard to find time to do
chores and your shopping when you work from 9 to 5. Unfortunately, this means that
we have had to spread our staff too thin until we have hired and trained enough people.
As a result, we have been neglecting some of our customers lately. The photocopied
Comment and Suggestion Form I have passed out to you all from Willy King sums
up our shortcomings better than I ever could. Please give it a read and think about
ways we can be made aware of a customer in need, even in a store as large as ours.
I understand that with our thin staff, we have to cover more space than we used to, so
this meeting isn't about punishment or blame, it's just about solutions. Please do some
brainstorming on this and drop in on me in my office if you think you have an idea; I
have to go call Willy King.

The buzz at New York's premier book fair is all


about the upcoming book from poet-turned-
novelist Harry S. Tepper. The Nightingales of
Fall is the eagerly awaited sequel to his best-
selling debut novel, The Swallows of Spring.
The book follows the journey of Sally Harknett
through the weird world of Underfell, mixing
social commentary with sharp wit and just a
dash of magic and mystery. Tepper burst onto
the scene over a decade ago with the acclaimed
poetry collection, King Harmon's Castle, and the
expectation for this latest novel is another chart-
topping success. Later this week, the first editions
will be made available in a prize drawing at the
New York Book Fair, with the official launch at
major bookstores next month.

More Buses During the Holidays

November 28- - [1] - Although the holiday season signals a nice week-long vacation
for many, bus drivers will work longer hours and straight into the holidays to
accommodate the many tourists that are flooding the city this time of year and the
shoppers that are busy buying those last-minute gifts. - [2] - The city announced new
bus schedules for the next few weeks which included some routes where the buses
would run all day and all night. While most buses stop running by 1:00 A.M., some
parts of downtown will see buses running all night. The Bingham shopping district
will also see buses running until 3:00 A.M. "This is when we have the most tourists
and out-of-town folks coming to visit," explained Mayor Bill Nate. "We felt it was
important to provide the necessary services during this time." - [3] -
When the bus drivers' union leader, Nathan Reiner, was asked about the new schedules
he responded, "We worked out a payment that is agreeable on both sides and have
enough drivers that can work in shifts so that there is no danger of overworking
or exhaustion. Many of us will still get some time off during the holidays with our
families."-[4]-

As I'm sure you're aware, this week we must decide if we want to continue
working with CC Wheel Delivery. After yesterday's meeting, it's clear that they
are being sued for the accident that happened last week. - [1] - We all agreed
that the whole company shouldn't be liable for the mistakes of a few careless
workers. But, that was a conversation we had before we had really thought about
the ramifications of our decision. - [2] - Unfortunately, the situation is escalating
and there is about to be a lot of bad press. - [3] - It's true that many of them are
our friends, But, we must protect our company. We can't handle anything that
could alter our sales. For the last four months, we've been operating with a very
thin margin for error. If our sales drop even the slightest, it could be detrimental.
So, I'm suggesting that, as a means of protecting ourselves from any negative
backlash, we cut our ties with CC Wheel Delivery. Maybe later, if they're able to
rehabilitate their name, we'll work with them again. - [4] - I propose we vote one
more time on whether or not to work with them.

Dear Mr. Masterson,


My name is Carl Ennens and II am entering my final year at Evergreen State College. II am
majoring in industrial engineering here, and my liquid dynamics professor, Dr. Alcobar,
recommended Master Stroke Industries as a possible internship opportunity. Your company
is recognized as a leader in flow research. If you would be willing to accept an intern for
the coming spring semester, II could give you up to 15 hours per week of work, provided that
you are able to write some performance evaluations that II could turn in to Dr. Alcobar for
credit. Thank you for your consideration, and if you would like to see my transcript, II would
be happy to forward it to you.

II appreciate your interest in interning with us here at Master Stroke Industries. We have
not accepted a lot of interns in the past, but II know Dr. Alcobar personally, and if he
recommended that you contact us, he must have faith in your ability. II think we should set
up an interview at our headquarters downtown on Holly Street. We can get to know each
other a bit over some coffee and II will show you around our facilities. Don't worry about
your transcripts; like II said, if Dr. Alcobar thinks you'll be a good fit, I'll trust his judgment.

me know what time II should arrive. Will the meeting begin after lunchtime like it did last

You won't need to pick up me up, as II have arranged for a cab to pick me up at the Santa

There are routes that now travel to Denver and Phoenix as well. Also, thanks to some lucky

Dear Mr. Peterson,

I am looking to engage the services of your catering company, A Taste of Class, for our
Christmas party at the end of this year. Ideally, we would like to have our event on Saturday,
December 20. I just have a few questions about your services. First, do you provide
decorations? I really want this year's party to be a hit; it is my first time being responsible
for it and I really want to impress the boss. Second do you have a wide range of vegetarian
dishes? We have 12 vegetarians on our staff of 35, so it will be important to provide them a
full meal, not just appetizers. If you could get back to me with the answers to my questions
and your availability for the 20th,
2oth, I would greatly appreciate it.

I am delighted that you have contacted A Taste of Class to help make your Christmas party

from; please visit our website at www.atasteofclass.com to see pictures of our successful

to you. Your final inquiry regarding the vegetarian option will also require some decision-

making on your part. We offer gourmet dining and are happy to specially prepare 12
vegetarian meals, but that can be a little bit expensive. I don't know what your budget is,
but might I suggest making the entire menu vegetarian? We have an outstanding vegetarian
chef, Julia Monroe, who can prepare a full vegetarian buffet so delicious a lion would eat it!
This option is also a lot more cost-effective than preparing two separate menus. After
reviewing your options, please let me know what choices are best for you.

Dear Mr. Jenkins,


So glad to hear that our parties have been such a success. We do have a catering
menu for you to choose items from, and feel free to mix and match based on
your own budget and tastes. I have included a menu as well as a staffing guide. I
recommend hiring the Banquet Captain if you have nerves about the event. Our
Banquet Captains are trained to engage and charm the guests at the parties we
host, hence our strong reputation.

I look forward to making your party a success!

Dear Sunny Day Cleaning,

I received your invoice for the services we received in February, which I have to say were
excellent. I see we were charged $95 dollars for each time you serviced our offices. This
is what we had initially agreed upon and have been paying for your services since last
year at this time. However, Rod Sanford told me we'd be receiving a $5 discount each
time you visited us because we have arranged for you to clean our other location just off
of Hwy. 26, He said that this new price would be starting in February. I have included a
copy of the e-mail Rod Sanford sent me. Could you please adjust the price to reflect the E

r new agreement and send us a new bill? I'd appreciate it. We look forward to seeing you
again.

Thank you for your assistance,
