Answer

Brief Explanations:

Q1:

A limerick is a form of humorous poetry and not a typical workplace - related document. Memos, business letters, minutes, and procedural manuals are common in the workplace, and while essays can be academic or professional, they are more formal and less common than the others in a typical work - setting compared to a limerick.

Q2:

Headings, graphics, and underlining are commonly used to make important information stand out in workplace documents. Densely written paragraphs make it harder to find key information, large amounts of blank space may not be practical for highlighting important info, and holograms are not a common technique in workplace documents.

Q3:

The employee party will be held on Friday, the Fourth of July, at Mountain View Park.

  • Time: 5:00 p.m. to after the fireworks
  • Items to bring:
    • Food: hot dogs, buns, potato chips, relish, mustard, ketchup, drinks, dessert
    • Other items: blankets, bug spray, board games, warm clothes, umbrellas (in case of rain)
  • Guests: Dogs, children, and spouses are welcome.

Q4:

i)

This is a problem - solution structure. The problem is employees feeling overwhelmed due to too much take - home work, and the solution is learning to manage time.

ii)

This is a cause - effect structure. The cause is dogs barking and disrupting the working environment, and the effect is that they are not allowed in the workplace.

iii)

This is a compare - contrast structure. It compares where team leaders and other employees should go for lunch.

iv)

This is a problem - solution structure. The problem is Friday afternoons being a difficult time for office workers due to monotony, and the solution is occasional Friday afternoon parties.
