many people are still very worried Q1 _______ using the latest computer technology. I am often
surprised to meet people who still don’t know what the ‘е’ in email stands for and they are too
Q2____ to ask. They assume you have to be skilled Q3______ computers to send а message via
еmail but in fact it is the simplest thing in the world. It is also cheaper to send an email message
than to send an ordinary letter or а ‘snail’ message which also takes much longer. An email
message is only Q4______ more expensive than а local telephone call to send; on top of the call
itself you also have to pay а fee to your ‘server’. If you send а letter by Q5_______ mail it will take
а couple of days to get there whereas an email will not take longer than а few seconds. Once you
become Q6________ to using the system you will be amazed at how much more Q7________ it is
than other means of communication. Of course, before you have access to еmail, you will need а
fairly powerful computer, which can be quite expensive.
