Ms. Laura Goldman

Chief Engineer of ACTION, Inc.
80 Roseville Road
St. Louis, Missouri 63130

Dear Ms. Goldman:

I am looking for a responsible position in an engineering department in which I may use my training
in computer sciences to solve engineering problems. I would be interested in exploring the possibility of
obtaining such a position within your firm.

I expect to receive a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering from Georgia Institute of

Technology in June when I will have completed the Computer Systems Engineering program of the
Engineering Department. In September 2019, I participated, through the university, in a 3-month
Professional Training Program at Computer Systems International, a large company in Atlanta. In the
program, I was assigned on a rotating basis to several staff sections in apprentice positions. I am
currently working as a part-time programmer in a marketing website developer. Although I earn just
enough for my monthly expenses, but I have to admit that I have a good opportunity to gain a great deal
of experience in computer applications here. Details of the academic courses and jobs I have taken are
contained in the enclosed résumé.

I look forward to hearing from you soon. I can be contacted at my office phone (415) 866-7000, ext.
312, or at my home number (415) 256-6320.

Sincerely yours,

Victoria T. Fromme

One More Episode, Please? Why Can’t We Stop Binge-Watching on Netflix?

The Jakarta Post – Yearry Panji S

As the use of online streaming services to consume televised content is becoming more common globally, the
problem of binge-watching behavior may also become a global phenomenon. Binge-watching is commonly
viewed in parallel with media content addiction, mostly in the case of televised content. For example, when
people spend even more time watching multiple episodes continuously, such as five episodes in a single
viewing, this might lead to a more significant content addiction in the long run.

The School of Media Arts and Studies at Ohio University, United States, conducted research in 2013 that
concludes that at least three factors contribute to binge-watching. Those are the audience’s motives, content
that provides continuous plots and platform structures that release a whole series of episodes in one go and
autoplay the next episode by default. The study was conducted among 34 American students between 18 and
24 years old when they have watched back-to-back episodes of TV series from streaming services, such as
Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime and many more.

Those who felt being under pressure from their workloads tended to find binge-watching as a way to distract
themselves from their responsibilities. Others used the same mechanism to help them escape boredom,
especially when they did not have anything else to do. This is why young people represented in the research
tend to binge-watch during their weekends, sometimes even by sacrificing their social life.

The following reasons cause people to do Binge-watching, except …

 A. online streaming services
B. the media platforms.
C. personal motives.
D. autoplay mode.
E. single episode.
