You are frozen as the clouds. Sweet as the high clouds. Rim of your brightness
The paragraph missing from the question is the following:
<em>The IT department is in the process of overhauling our website. This update will require the implementation of a separate server for our company intranet and e-mail. This conversion will require a 24-hour downtime. As a result, all intranet and e-mail services will be unavailable on Saturday. </em>
Answer:
To inform the reader that the company intranet and e-mail services will be unavailable on Saturday.
Explanation:
The author explains what the IT department will do and how long its activities will be only to inform why the company intranet and e-mail services will be unavailable. The major purpose of the paragraph is to inform the reader that the company intranet and e-mail services will be unavailable on Saturday. The whole text revolves around that point because if we were to remove the non-essential information of the text, everything would be removed except for the part that informs that such services will be unavailable on Saturday.
It expresses the many types of English the Tan family uses.
