Memo No. 003

California, June 15, 2020

From: José Carreiras

To: Mariah Stone

Subject: New workday.

Dear Miss Stone,

In view of the changes in the workday, I would like to inform you about some results that I could see with these changes.

First of all, I would like to highlight the advantage of having a reduced workload to protect our workers, who are able to reduce their exposure and thus reduce the spread of Coronavirus in our environment. On the other hand, I would like to inform you that there is a disadvantage in working only 4 hours a day, which is the decrease in our production and consequently the decrease in our profits.

With this in mind, I conclude that we must arrange a meeting so that new strategies for working hours are established, taking into account the success of our company and the protection of our collaborators and employees.

I await your reply, have a nice day.

Jose Carreiras

Director of human resources department

It is important to remember that the memos consist of obeying a specific model, but that model can be modified as needed. This model generally presents itself as:

1.the hosts on two opposing mountains stood,  

2.thick as the foliage of the waving wood;  

3.between them an extensive valley lay,  

4.o'er which the gleaming armour pour'd the day,  

5.when from the camp of the philistine foes,

6. dreadful to view, a mighty warrior rose; in the dire deeds of bleeding battle skill'd,

hello,

your answer is a) the metaphor suggests that the poetic themes are serious and dark.

collins is comparing the poem to a dark room. he is suggesting that the poems theme is serious and wants you to understand it. you don't need to understand the poet in order to understand the poem. you also don't need to move around while reading it. he is simply saying the poem has a dark and serious theme.
