November 20, 20_

Mr. Alan Porter
2870 Kennewick Drive
Bloomington, IN 42777

Dear Mr. Porter,

We were pleased to receive your letter and résumé inquiring about the vacant position which we announced in the Journal of Engineering and Business last month. Unfortunately, your letter arrived on my desk several days after the closing date of November 1. We received an overwhelming response to our job announcement. There were over 25 applications from qualified accountants. Although you appear to be well qualified for the position we announced, I am sorry to inform you that we have already hired another applicant. However, we were impressed with your background, and we would like to keep your résumé on file. We anticipate hiring again in the spring or summer of next year. We will inform you when another position that matches your qualifications becomes vacant.

We wish you the best of luck in your job search.

Thank you for your interest in the Walters Corporation.

Sincerely,
John Simons
Director of Human Resources

From: Su Jung Ahn <sujungahn@wanfile. co. kr>
To: Jill Webber <j. webber@halamail. co. au>
Subject: Response
Date: May 30

Dear Ms. Webber,

Thank you for contacting us here at the Daejeon Family Inn. We would be happy to provide you with accommodations during your stay in Daejeon next month. Unfortunately, we do not have any rooms at our inn that operate as suites. However, we can book your family in two rooms that are at the end of a hallway, separate from the rest of the rooms at the inn.

The two rooms are right next to each other, and you would have some privacy away from the other guests. Each room has its own bathroom with a shower and a queen-size bed. We hope they will be suitable for your needs.

If that will be to your satisfaction, we will book you in these two rooms for four nights beginning on June 26. These rooms are $30 per night. This price includes breakfast. Would you like to proceed with this reservation? If I can be of further assistance, please let me know.

Sincerely,
Su Jung Ahn
Manager, Daejeon Family Inn

To: Overtures ASP Division Employees 
Date: June 3, 2010
Subject: Name Change for ASP Division of Overtures

Effective immediately, the ASP Divisions of Overtures are adopting new internal names.  
The three divisions will be known collectively as Overtures Partner Solutions, and each division name is changing as follows.

1. The ASP Insurance Division will be called Insurance Solutions.
2. ASP Pharmacy Services will change its name to Pharmacy Solutions.
3. Our catalog business will become Consumer Health Products.

We're making this change because, at times, the placement of ASP in our division names has caused confusion for external audiences. This change will clarify to regulators, policymakers and other businesses that we are part of Overtures and, while we serve ASP members, we do not work directly for ASI or ASP.

The name change also strengthens our ties to Overtures and helps support the Overtures brand. As Overtures embarks on company-wide initiatives to accelerate growth, we will continue to be a critical part and vital source for that success.

Please begin using the new names immediately for internal and corporate communication. More details will follow as we develop a new layout for business cards and letterhead using the Overtures logo. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Jesse Torres at 855-541-2164.

23. What is stated about the ASP Division of Overtures?
24. Why does the ASP Division have a problem?
25. The word 'embarks' in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to
26. What does the committee recommend ASP Division employees do?

Darla Custardson
66789 Angelina St.
Spoonerism, WI

Dear Ms. Custardson,

To follow up on our meeting in person when we discussed this matter, I am writing as the manager of the Squiggly Wiggly to personally apologize for the incident which occurred in our restaurant on January 7.

Although this occurrence must have come as quite a shock to you, I want to assure you that I was also very surprised when I learned what had happened, and I am doing everything in my power to find out exactly how the small bug found its way into your hamburger. This is not representative of the quality that our customers have come to expect from us, and is one of my most shameful moments during my career in the food industry.

I feel you have been very understanding considering what has happened, and I want to extend my thanks to you for that. If you ever see fit to come to the Squiggly Wiggly again, you will dine free as my guest.

Best Regards,
Bobby B. Brown

HELEN COULTER [July 15, 9:54 A.M.] I hope you are all having a good break. I just heard back from the producer of Timelight this morning, and they would like to extend Kitchen Belle's catering contract for another two years. The studio has renewed the TV series. Shall we keep the same schedule as last year, or would you like to switch times?
ELAINE PAINTER [July 15, 10:00 A.M.] That's great news! It will guarantee the business a steady income. I know Henry Lincoln usually does breakfast, but as long as he doesn't have a problem with it, can I take the morning shift instead of lunch this time?
GRAHAM FULTON [July 15, 10:04 A.M.] It's fine by him. He's with me now and just told me so, Elaine. He'd actually prefer midday. As for me, I want to stick with the breakfast shift. Will there be any extra evening shoots this year?
HELEN COULTER [July 15, 10:05 A.M.] So Elaine and Graham can do the 7:30-11:00 shift, and Henry and I will do 11:30-3:30. There will be some evening shifts for extra pay, but none that will end past midnight. In addition, the show will also be filmed outside the studio this season, so we'll have to make adjustments. Anyway, we can discuss that issue when we return from vacation next week.
ELAINE PAINTER [July 15, 10:07 A.M.] Will the number of cast and crew be the same?
GRAHAM FULTON [July 15, 10:07 A.M.] It sounds like more work than last year.
HELEN COULTER [July 15, 10:08 A.M.] Yes, Elaine. There will be a total of 88 to feed rather than 67. And Graham, I think it will be more work. But they are paying us more, so I think we can afford to hire a couple of food preparation assistants.

31. At 10:04 A.M., what does Mr. Fulton most likely mean when he writes, "It's fine by him"?
32. When will Mr. Lincoln start his regular shifts next season?
33. What is implied about Timelight?
34. What will happen next week at Kitchen Belle?

Several menu options will be offered, and you're kindly asked to notify me of your selections by the end of next week. For the main course, there is a choice between grilled salmon and fresh vegetables or roasted lamb and seasoned potatoes. -[3]-. Coffee, tea, and other beverages will also be provided.

If you have any dietary limitations that must be accommodated, such as food allergies, please let me know as soon as possible so that arrangements can be made with the hotel. -[4]-.
