Answers to Written Questions
Courteous - your tone is always polite as you are representing your organization and wish to
create goodwill
Clean - this means that there are no coffee stains, liquid paper, or crossing out on your
correspondence. It also means that your work is not cluttered and there is plenty of white
space so that the document looks appealing and professional
Checked - this means your work has been examined for spelling mistakes,
grammatical mistakes, format and layout and found to be mistake-free.
Go to ‘mailings’ tab, ‘create envelope’, then enter the delivery address and return address
details.
Begin with the first page of the letter facing towards you.
Crease the letter along a fold one-third from the bottom. Fold the letter up to a point
one-third from the top, covering the writing on the letter.
Make a second horizontal crease one-third from the top of the letter where the bottom
of the letter had been folded to.
Tuck the bottom into this crease and fold the top over it. The letter will be folded into
thirds. It will fit any standard envelope.
If the letter needs to have the address face out an envelope window, make the second fold in
the same location but opposite direction. The letter will then be folded in a Z shape and the
address can be positioned to face out the window of the envelope.
27. Use the Word Research Tool (review tab) OR any dictionary tools as
recommended in Element 2 and research the following words. Once completed,

affected too. We count on your understanding. Once the insurance company has evaluated
the damage, we can then make a decision about the upcoming days.
Suggested answer:
USB memory sticks
External hard drives: important in case of computer failure to safeguard large
amounts of information
Floppy disks or CD ROMs: remember that a limited amount of information can be stored
here, so it is a good idea to compress the file to accommodate large amounts of data.
They are becoming obsolete, in favour of the above.
