Accepted Answer

AI-written fictional sample. Names, dates, contacts, numerical examples and fieldwork not supplied by the question are illustrative assumptions; no real survey/interviews are claimed.

(a) According to the passage, three advantages of using e-mail are:
(i) It reduces the consumption of paper in offices by allowing internal memos and reports to be exchanged electronically.
(ii) It is a cheaper alternative to telephone conversation and eliminates the time spent in establishing phone calls.
(iii) Messages can be transmitted across countries almost instantaneously (within seconds), thereby enhancing office efficiency.

(b) Privacy is maintained through an e-mail because it is a user-to-user communication system where messages are delivered directly to an individual's personal electronic mailbox, which can only be accessed or opened by the intended recipient.

(c) The principal disadvantage of using 'Telex' is that it is terminal-to-terminal rather than user-to-user; messages for multiple users are sent to a single common terminal and then distributed in printed form by an operator, which lacks personal privacy and immediate direct delivery.
