专题六 阅读填空第二十四讲 信息的表述
(1)(10 min.)
When I opened my email the other day, a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and started talking with great enthusiasm. Every now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss. She was reading to me an email from my brother, and a lot of it was about his getting the phone company to give him a highspeed Internet connection. It was pretty cool. Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail. Facemail lets you send email that can read mails to the receiver by an attractive male or female form or by a clown. The software, which is free, can be downloaded at www.Facemail.com. Facemail faces are lifelike, and they copy emotions based on the ones that you put in your text. For example, type in X, and Rachel blows a kiss.
Life FX, the company that develops the Facemail, is sure there are broad business uses. The reason ebusiness 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? Besides, the company is talking with Whirlpool company about the technology in a computer screen on a fridge. Then if Mom can't be at home when the kids get back from school, she can leave a note with voice and image telling them what there is to eat.
