A、Just like an advanced typewriter. B、Equipped with a memory. C、Used as a filing cabinet. D、Easier to check and correct mistakes

M: Well, now, Mrs. Davis, do you have any questions about your job?
W: Yes, I do, really. I’m a bit worried about this word processing.
M: There is no need to worry about it. Your application form says that you can type pretty fast. We’ll give you training on the word processor. In fact it is just an advanced typewriter. And it has a memory so that you don’t have to type a regular letter again and again. You’ll get used to it, I can assure you. The training just takes a few weeks. And you’ll find that it’s easier to check and correct mistakes than on a normal typewriter.
W: Oh, that sounds good. Em, how about this computer? I’m not sure about that either. Actually, I’m a computer illiterate.
M: Well, we’ll give you training on that as well. But that comes later—after you’ve worked with the word processor. Again, it’s very much like a typewriter. You’ll be using it to get information from its memory. Really it’s just like a large filing cabinet that there is no paper involved. You type out the reference number or the subject and the information appears on a television screen.
W: Oh, that doesn’t sound too difficult. How long would the training for that take?
M: Probably a couple of months. We hope you can do that part-time during your working hours.
W: Hm. That sounds fine. So that first bit of training would be with the word processor.
M: Yes, that’s about aright. Exact details can be worked out later, of course.
