7) Passage 1: As computer programs and online services continue to advance, paperless offices are growing in popularity. Going paperless is certainly a more environmental friendly option than using reams of paper. A paperless office may also save on various overhead expenses. However, it may be expensive in the long run to go paperless, depending on the size and needs of your company. Another option might be using less paper instead of attempting a completely paperless office. This way, your company can enjoy some advantages of the paperless system while avoiding some of the disadvantages Passage 2. Many companies today are choosing to not go paperless because of the high costs of doing so. Despite the "green" advantages, going paperless requires companies to maintain up-to-date hardware and software, and upgrades often come at a steep price. Businesses may need to hire an IT person to monitor their systems, train new users and perform regular backups of information. Ensuring online security is also vital, and the more people a company has using a system, the closer the system must be monitored for privacy issues and viruses. It takes a lot of time and money to go paperless, and for so many small businesses, it's just not worth the expense. The author of Passage I would most likely criticize the author of Passage 2 for ? A) overemphasizing the significance of the company's size
B) overlooking the environmental benefits of going paperless
C) failing to consider an alternative to eliminating all paper
D) underestimating the consequences of technological issues
