An American man from Las Vegas opened a dog and cat hotel recently. Pets can rest on soft rugs（小地毯）, watch television and get to know some new friends while their masters have fun in the city.
The American Dog and Cat Hotel opened officially on a Wednesday in March. There is everything a pet could want and more.
“We hear time and time again, ‘This is so nice. I’d like to stay here.” the hotel manager said in an interview. He believed that people would want for their pets what they wanted for themselves.
“Kennels（狗舍）have been around for a long time, but nowadays masters want to put their loved pets in some better places,” he added.
He said the cats and dogs like to watch images（图象）on TV although they may not understand them. Anyway, they don’t have to know Britney Spears or Emimem to enjoy the pop music. Also, “The dogs don’t know it is a rug, but they know it is soft,” he said.
Pet masters can book a dog suite（套房）for ＄79 a night. Baths and other services are also offered.

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 with great enthusiasm. Ev
ery now and then she stopped to smile at me or blow a kiss. She was reading to me an e-mail from my brother. It was pretty cool.
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. Facemail faces are lifelike, and they simulate（模仿） emotions based on emotions that you put in your text. 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 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.
63．The main advantage of Facemail is that .
A．you can hire a beautiful woman to read the e-mail to you
B．you can see the person who sends you the e-mail
C．you can put your own emotions in the e-mail as you like
D．the e-mail can be read in a more lovely way
64．We can infer from the passage that Facemail .
A．is likely to be used in other ways in our daily life
B．can destroy your e-mail if not properly used
C．is a software hard to download
D．will take the place of the e-mail system
65．The writer mentioned Nike website and Michael Jordan to show that .
A．famous people like Michael Jordan also like to use Facemail
