Sample:1.1 Send an e-mail with an attachment
Leo: Are you busy now? I have got a question to ask you . Tony: Not really. What’s up?
Leo: I am using Microsoft Outlook 2003 to send my colleague an email with an attachment,
but it won’t work.
Tony: Is your attachment very large? There is usually an attachment size limit. Leo: I don’t think so. The size of the attachment is only 1.4MB.
Tony: Then what is the type of the attached file? There are security risks in certain files, such as
the files with the filename extensions of .asp, .exe, .reg etc. In such cases, Microsoft Outlook 2003 will prohibit the e-mails by default when you send them.
Leo: Why does Microsoft Outlook 2003 block them?
Tony: Because the files with such extensions may contain viruses which will harm your
computer.
Leo: I see. Then extension of my attachment is .exe. That’s why it can not be sent. Then how
can I send the attachment to my colleague?
Tony: There are usually two ways to solve the problem. One is to change the extension, and tell
you colleague to change it back to .exe before opening the attachment; the other is to compress the attachment with WinRAR or other programs, and you can send it to your colleague then.
Leo: Thank you so much for helping me out, Tony Tony: Anytime. 1.1
Leo: Tony,你现在忙不忙啊?我有个问题想问你。 Tony: 不忙,什么问题啊?
Leo: 我使用Microsoft Outlook 2003给一个同事发一个附件,但是发不出去。 Tony: 你的附件很大吗?邮箱通常对附件大小有限制。 Leo: 不是很大,只有1.4兆字节。
Tony: 那么你发的附件是什么类型的文件?有些文件存在一定安全风险,比如扩展名
是.asp、.exe、.reg等的文件,这种情况下,Outlook会默认禁止邮件的发送。
Leo: 为什么Microsoft Outlook 2003会阻止这样的文件呢? Tony: 因为带这种扩展名的文件可能包含危害电脑的病毒。
Leo: 那我知道了。我的附件是.exe 文件,所以发不出去。那我怎样才能把这个附件发给
16
我同事呢?
Tony: 通常你可以使用两种方法。一种是改变扩展名,然后告诉你同事收到后把扩展名改
回.exe再打开。另一种方法是把附件使用WinRAR等软件进行压缩,然后再发送。
Leo: 真实太谢谢你了,Tony Tony: 不客气。
Sample:1.2 Use Skype to talk with others
Leo: Tony, have you ever used Skype? Tony: Yep. Why?
Leo: My friend has recommended it to me. But I am not sure whether it is good or not. Tony: I often talk to my fiends in America with Skype. Leo: What are the features of it ? Tony: Skype uses VOIP, that is, Voice over Internet Protocol. You can use it to communicate with
others on the Internet. And you can also dial regular phone numbers in some areas.
Leo: Will it charge me if I use Skype?
Tony: Well, it depends. If you make PC to PC calls on the Internet, it is free. But if you call a
regular phone number, you will have to pay for it.
Leo: What about the call quality?
Tony: You can make a test call and leave a message after the “beep”, and then Skype will play
your sound record. In this way, you can know the quality of your call.
Leo: Can I chat with several people at the same time?
Tony: You can chat with several people at the same time by making a conference call or starting
a group chat. But the latter one just allows you to chat by sending text messages.
Leo: Sounds great. I will give it a try sometime. Thank you, Tony. Tony: My pleasure. 1.2
Leo: Tony,你用过Skype吗? Tony: 用过啊,怎么了?
Leo: 我朋友向我推荐这个软件,但是我不知道是否好用? Tony: 我经常使用Skype和在美国的朋友交流。 Leo: 这个软件有什么特点?
Tony: skype属于VoIP软件,你可以通过它跟其他人在网上通话。当然你也可以拨打在某
些区域的普通电话号码。
Leo: 那么使用Skype通话收费吗?
Tony: 这要视情况而定。如果在电脑之间通话,那么就是免费的。但是如拨打普通电话,
那么就要收费。
Leo: 通话效果怎么样啊?
Tony: 你可以拨打测试电话,你可以在“嘀”声之后留言,然后Skype回放录音,你就知
道通话效果了。
Leo: 那么我可以同时和几个人聊天吗?
Tony: 你可以通过创建电话会议或者群组聊天的方式,同时和多个人聊天。不过,后者是
用发送文字消息的方式进行。
Leo: 看来这个软件不错。我有时间使用它试一试。谢谢你,Tony。 Tony: 不客气。

Sample:1.3 Conduct conferences with Netmeeting
Tony: I am planning to hold a video conference with my colleagues by Netmeeting. Can you tell
me how to do it?
Leo: First, make sure that the webcam and the microphone are connected to your computer
correctly. And then run the Netmeeting program.
Tony: Where can I find it ?
Leo: There are usually two ways to find it. One is to locate the program in the folder where it is
installed. And it is usually in the Program Files folder on drive C. And then double click conf.exe to start it. The other way is to click Run on Start menu, input conf in the Open dialogue box and press the Enter key. You also need several simple steps to finish the configuration, like entering your user information.
Tony: So I can start the video conference now?
Leo: Not yet. You need to host a meeting first. Select Host Meeting on the Call menu, and
specify the name of the meeting.
Tony: Oh, then how can I let my colleagues join in the meeting.
Leo: You need to tell them your IP address, and they can call you at your IP address. You will
see a dialogue box of an incoming call. Click Accept to allow them to join in.
Tony: Then all I need to do is to accept the call?
Leo: Yes. Furthermore, you can also allow your colleagues to see what you are presenting on
your desktop.
Tony: What can I do to let them see it?
Leo: You can choose Share on the Tools menu, and then select your Desktop or the program
you want to share with others.
Tony: I got it. Thank you very much for your help. Leo: You are welcome. 1.3
Tony: 我打算用Netmeeting和同事召开视频会议,我该怎么做啊? Leo: 首先要安装好摄像头和麦克风。然后打开Netmeeting程序。 Tony: 从哪儿能找到它呢?
Leo: 通常有两种方法。一种是找到Netmeeting所在的文件夹。通常在C盘Program Files
下的Netmeeting文件夹中,双击conf.exe文件就可以打开了。另一种是在开始菜单的运行对话框中,输入conf,然后按回车键。这样就打开Netmeeting程序了。当然,你还需要进行一些简单的配置,比如填写你的个人信息。
Tony: 这样就能够进行视频会议了吗?
Leo: 暂时还不行。你还要主持会议。在呼叫菜单上选择主持会议,然后输入会议名称。 Tony: 哦,那我的同事怎么加入我主持的会议啊?
Leo: 你把你的IP地址告诉你的同事,他们可以通过你的IP地址呼叫你,当你看到一个呼
入的对话框时,点击接受就可以允许对方加入。
Tony: 那么我所需要做的就是接受呼叫了?
Leo: 是的,而且你还可以让你的同事同时看到你电脑桌面上的内容。 Tony: 那我怎样才能让对方看到我桌面上的内容呢?
Leo: 你可以在工具菜单上选择共享,然后点击共享桌面或所要共享的程序就可以了。 Tony: 我明白了。非常感谢你的帮助! Leo: 别客气。

Sample:1.1 Document compatibility
Leo: Tony, can you do me a favor? Tony: Of course. What’s up?
Leo: Recently I often received some new documents from clients, with filename extension
“.docx”. I can’t open or edit the documents with Microsoft Office 2003. How can I solve this problem?
Tony: I can offer you 2 solutions.
“.docx” is the new filename extension that Microsoft Word 2007 uses with it saves
documents as the default file format. So you can install Microsoft Office 2007 to open and edit those documents.
Leo: Oh, but that’s too complicated. Is there any other way?
Tony: If you download and install an Office compatibility pack from Microsoft, it will enable you
to open and edit .docx files. But some objects generated from new features in Microsoft Word 2007 will be converted to images, so you can only view but not edit them.
Leo: That’s very helpful. Thank you so much!
Tony: You’re welcome. Don’t hesitate to ask me if you have any questions. Leo: I won’t. Thank you very much. 1.1
Leo: Tony,能帮个忙吗? Tony: 当然可以,什么问题?
Leo: 最近我总从一些客户那里收到一些文档,扩展名是.docx,我用Microsoft Office 2003
无法打开或编辑。你能告诉我如何解决这个问题吗?
Tony: 我可以给你提供两种解决方案。
.docx 是新的文件格式,是Microsoft Word 2007 在保存文档时的默认格式,因此安
装Office 2007 你就可以打开和编辑那个文档了。
Leo: 哦,但是那样太麻烦了,还有其他办法吗?
Tony: 如果你从微软网站下载一个Office兼容包的话,安装之后你也可以打开和编辑.docx
文件。但是一些由Microsoft Word 2007中新功能所生成的对象将被转换成图片,因此你只能查看,不能编辑。
Leo: 真是太有帮助了。非常感谢!
Tony: 不必客气。有什么问题尽管来问我吧。 Leo: 我会的。非常谢谢。
