A,B Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answers are A and B. JCL directly controls passing job control information to JES (Job Entry Subsystem) and addressing input resources through JOB, EXEC, and DD statements. Options C and D are incorrect because JCL does not perform calculations (that's the program's job) nor send email notifications (that requires additional facilities).
