Dear Ms. Weston,
Performance of the CPT Equipment
I'm pleased to tell you about our experience with the CPT Word Processor as you requested recently. G (example) I assume you have looked at several machines and have narrowed down your choices. Here are my observations.
An approach to adopting word processors
Eighteen months ago we adopted CPT equipment on limited scale with the idea in mind that we could gradually get rid of electric typewriters as we became familiar with the word processor. (8)_______The stations are arranged in pairs so each pair can share a common
printer. (9)_______We use the equipment as dedicated word processors, although we do have the ability to link up with our computer installations.
The step-at-a-time development of our word-processing center has, we think, saved us money and training time. (10)_______Performance
In terms of performance, the CPT equipment is excellent. (11)_______ Moreover our service contract and warranty have covered all maintenance costs. We have software packages that check spelling and signal when a mistake occurs. (12)_______Using both printers, we recently prepared 1, 200 individually typed letters for mailing in under four hours. We have no complaint about our preparation of executive reports.
A.We have not yet experienced mechanical problems SO far.
B.Also it has reduced the confusion that exists about buying software packages.
C.The train stops at each station for only fifteen minutes.
D.We began with two work stations and now have four.
E.Our routine letters are prepared from disc—stored masters.
F.The Rotary W printer prints with a speed of 45 characters a second can easily handle two input stations.
G.We are pleased with its performance and multi-functions.

填空题
4、根据下面内容,回答题:
0 If consumers in Hillsborough County could limited their spending on one Saturday
00 to independent, locally owned businesses instead of chain stores, more than
34 $ 17 million would even remain in the local company instead of being shipped to
35 outside corporations as overnight deposits. So it say representatives of the
36 Tampa Independent Business Alliance, who base their calculation on studies that
37 made by the American Independent Business Alliance. The national study found
38 that since locally owned businesses began to use goods and services of other
39 business in the community, a consumer's spending circulates 3 up to 31/2
40 times longer locally than if it is spent on at a chain. On Saturday, the local group
41 will be working with the national organization and more than all 25 other
42 communities across the country to broadcast the benefits coming of the
43 shop-local movement. The educational event, "American Unchained", will be
44 promoted at independent business such as Inkwood Books in Tampa, "We
45 want people to think about where their dollars actually end up to," said Carla Jimenez, coowner of Inkwood and president of Tampa Independent Business Alliance.
