In case you haven’t seen a television or newspaper in the last week, let me be the first to tell you that there are at least 5 new computer viruses in circulation right now. Many of them are extraordinarily destructive.
Until further notice, you should not open any attachments to any messages unless you know what the attachment is and you need the attachment to do your work. Do not open jokes, games, pictures, or anything else without receiving verification from the sender that the attachment was sent intentionally and is safe to open.
The new viruses are unusually deceptive to trick you into activating them. They may come disguised as almost anything, including invoices for products you did not buy or even patches to protect against computer viruses. On our network, virus protection updates will never come as an attachment sent by e-mail.
If you have any questions, please contact me as soon as possible.
Direction: As if you are an A11 NCNM staff, read the letter and give a suitable response.

Today you can find fast food restaurants in almost every bid city. In some places, you can stand in a line and get a hamburger or a hot dog in a paper box; in others you can pick up a tray of fish, chicken, pizza or even Mexican and Chinese food; and in some fast food places you can even park your car up to a window and place your order. A few minutes later a worker passes you your food through the window and you can drive away and eat it in your car.
In New York, Paris, Tokyo, Singapore and thousands of big cities around the world, new fast food restaurants open every day. But why do people prefer fast food restaurants to more comfortable restaurants where they can sit quietly at a table and watch the world go by?
