    When I opened my e – mail the other day, a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and started talking warmly. Every now and then she stopped to smile at me．She was reading to me an e-mail from my brother．It was very cool and lovely．

Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail. Facemail lets you send an e-mail that gets read to the receiver on line by an attractive male or female or by a clown（小丑）．The software , which is free , can be downloaded at www.facemail.com. Facemail faces are lifelike , and they simulate（模仿）emotions based on emotions that you put in your text．

The company that develops the Facemail, is sure there will be broad uses in many fields．The reason why e-business is not popular, the company says, is that buying over the Internet lacks the human touch. But what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan greeted you by name, waited on you and personally closed the sale ? And it is talking with Whirpool Company about using the technology in a computer screen on a fridge．Then if Mom can’t be home when the kids get back from school , she can leave a note with voice and image telling them what there is to eat．

Facemail could get hot fast．Personally , I’m a fan. Facemail is lively and funny at first , but if you select the clown , put a few rude words in an e-mail and add some angry emotions, you’ve got a crazy mail.

64．The main advantage of Facemail is that         ．

       A．the e-mail can be read in a more lovely way

       B．you can talk with the person who sends you the e-mail

       C．you can put your own emotions in the e-mail as you like

       D．you can write an e – mail to anyone

65．We can infer from the passage that Facemail         ．

       A．is a software hard to download

       B．will take the place of the e-mail system

       C．can destroy your e-mail if not properly used

       D．is likely to be used in other ways in our daily life and work

66．The writer mentioned Nike website and Michael Jordan to show that       ．

       A．Michael Jordan will serve you himself on Nike website

       B．famous people like Michael Jordan also like to use Facemail

       C．Facemail can make shopping on the Internet more interesting

       D．Nike company is increasing its sales through the fame of Jordan

67．The writer thinks        .

       A．Facemail is cool and funny                    

       B．Facemail is a danger to the Internet  

       C．Facemail needs further improvement                   

       D．people should be careful with Facemail
