I wrote a report on the computer this morning. When I finished, I printed out two copies – one for me and one for my boss. Then, without any warning, the computer went blank, and I’m afraid I lost the whole document. This is very unusual because normally I save the data while I’m writing and then make a backup copy when I have finished; this morning I forgot. Anyway, I gave the report to my boss, hoping that she would not ask me to change it in any way.
She did. She thought it was a bit long and said it would be better if I used more visuals to illustrate some of the written information. She also thought it would make the report look more attractive. I went back and rewrote most of the report when the computer was OK, only omitting part of the middle section which was rather repetitive, and I added extra graphics as my boss advised. It did look better by the time I’d finished, and this time I remembered to save it and make a duplicate copy.
Now let me explain each part of the text to you step by step:
1) In the first sentence, the person is talking about writing a report using a computer for word processing. They started writing the report in the morning.
2) In the second sentence, the person finished writing the report and printed two copies. One copy was for themselves, and the other was for their boss.
3) In the third sentence, the computer suddenly stopped working ("went blank"), and they lost the whole document. This is not something that normally happens to them.
4) In the fourth sentence, the person explains that they usually save their work while they are writing. This means that they click on the 'Save' option frequently to make sure they don't lose any progress. They also mentioned making a backup copy, which means creating a duplicate of the file to keep it safe.
5) In the fifth sentence, the person admits that they forgot to save their work and make a backup copy this morning.
6) In the sixth sentence, the person gave the report to their boss, hoping that she would not ask for any changes. However, their boss did have some suggestions to improve the report.
7) In the seventh sentence, the person explains that they went back to make the recommended changes to the report. However, they left out a part of the middle section that was repetitive.
8) In the eighth sentence, the person says they added extra graphics to the report as advised by their boss. This would help illustrate some of the written information and make the report more visually appealing.
9) In the ninth sentence, the person remembered to save their work this time. After making the changes and additions, they clicked on 'Save' to ensure everything was saved.
10) In the final sentence, the person made a duplicate copy of the report, just in case something happened to the original file.
I hope this explanation helps you understand the text better. Let me know if you have any further questions.
