Everyone needs a holiday, both to relax and to have a change of environment. The holidaymakers feel relaxed and refreshed at the end of the holiday and look forward to the resumption of their duties, be it at school, office, or factories, with renewed vigour. This is the reason why all establishments grant their employee's annual leave. With the end of the academic year, the schools and universities grant their

pupils a long holiday during mid-summer. This lasts until early September when the new school term

starts. Of course, the parents will like to take advantage of this and take their leave to coincide with the

children's vacations. This has become a traditional holiday season in most European countries,

particularly in England.

With the coming of August, the traditional holiday season in Britain reaches its peak point and most of

the holiday resorts are packed to capacity. In order to avoid the crowd, some prefer to take their holiday a little earlier if facilities so warrant. Those who have already taken their holidays can console themselves not only with reflections on the happy days spent in the country, at the seaside or abroad but also with. the thought that holiday expenses are over for the year and that by taking an earlier holiday they have missed the August rush.

The main thing, of course, is the weather and that would be hazardous to prophesy. But whatever the weather is like, the essence of a holiday for most is the carefree atmosphere in which it can be enjoyed, "Take all you need but leave your worries behind" is the sound advice for the holidaymaker.

E-mail has changed the way we do business. Sure, people complain about the amount of e-mail they receive. But when all is said and done, using e-mail has impacted business in a positive way and has an edge over other methods of communication. One can manage one?s all correspondence on screen and so can one?s customers. Your proposal can be answered, revised, stored, and sent to others, all without reams of paper involved. Mail is delivered instantly from your office to anywhere in the world. No other method of delivery can provide this service. Timely buying and selling decisions can be made in a heartbeat. Compared to telephone calls, faxes, or overnight courier service, e-mail is less expensive. The subject line on an e-mail makes it easy to prioritise messages. The reader can identify critical correspondence quickly and deal with it immediately unlike regular mail which needs to be opened and reviewed, or voice mail which requires you to either listen to or scan all your messages for those that require immediate attention. The level of security in transmitting e-mail messages is very high, and the industry continues to strive to develop even tighter security levels. E-mail is private, often telephone and fax messages are not. If the address information is correct, rarely does an e-mail go astray. E-mail is an Internet marketing tool that is fast, easy to use, inexpensive and effective. a. On the basis of your reading of the above passage make notes on it using headings and sub-headings. Use recognisable abbreviations wherever necessary. Supply an appropriate title to it. (5 Marks) b. Write a summary of the above passage within 50 words.
