Good afternoon, everyone. 741want to talk to you today about using paper in the office. I'm
sure you're all aware of the environmental impact of wasting paper. 75Moreover, paper is becoming
increasingly expensive these days so it is a cost that the company's looking to cut down on.
Therefore, I want all of you to minimize your use of paper in the office from now on. Please only
print out documents if it is absolutely necessary. 76Also,if possible, attempt to recycle paper by
printing new documents on the blank side of used paper whenever you can. If we all take this issue
seriously, I'm sure we can halve paper use in the office before too long.

86ltis my pleasure to introduce to listeners the award-winning Hollywood film director, Lenny
Stevens. Lenny is joining us in the studio today to promote his new movie called Overtime. Many
listeners will be familiar with Lenny's big blockbuster works. 87Hitssuch as Dinosaur Attack and
Earthquake have been very popular with fans across the world for their amazing special effects.
However, Lenny's new movie Overtime is something completely different. Created on a limited
budget with a cast of unknown actors, Overtime is a compelling romance that is proving to be a hit
with the critics. 88Incredibly, the film is an independent effort which Lenny financed mostly from
his own pocket. So, Lenny, I guess what our listeners want to know is-what made you decide to
create this kind of movie?

92Thecity fire depaltment is struggling to keep up with the growing number of fires around the
city. In the past week alone, firefighters were called out to over 50 separate house fires. According
to city fire chief Duncan White, this has been the busiest winter on record. 93Faulty heating
equipment is believed to be responsible for most of the incidents. Since this winter has been
particularly cold, people are relying on electric and gas heating more than usual. The department
is encouraging people to get their heaters checked to ensure that they are safe. 94Mr.White also
urges everyone to have smoke detectors installed in their living rooms to provide extra ecurity.

The first item of business today is a really important issue. We have not previously had a strict
company regulation about sharing computer files over the Internet. However, management has
noticed that a lot of you are sending work files to people outside the company via online
messenger. We would now like this to stop. 991realize that messenger is a very quick way for all of
you to exchange information. However, it makes it very difficult for us to monitor the transfer of
files, and we definitely do not want to risk having sensitive files shared with outsider. Moreover,
with so many workers sending large files, it is clogging up our network and making it run slower.
lOOEven if you want to send files to your colleagues, please use your company email. Thank you.
