PART FIVE：Questions 23-28
58、Read the article below about receiving and sending email.
For each question (23-28) on the opposite page, choose the correct answer.
Mark one letter (A, B or C) on your. Answer Sheet.
Do you send and receive more phonescalls or e-mail? If your answer is e-mail,or you wish it were, then a new breed oftelecommunications devices called an email phone or Internet phone may soon find its way into your kitchen or living room. Essentially, an e-mail phone, or ephone for short, is the merger of tele phone and computer. With most of these new screen phones, that means, being able to read and reply to electronic mail directly from the phone, without starting up (or even owning) a PC. With some, it also means being able to search through the Web to make vacation plans or research homework assignments though at slow speeds and on a rather small screen. And you can still make phone calls, "too.
No computer experience is required to use an e-phone. Most let you sign up with In ternet service provider (ISP), which typically charges about $ 20 per month.
Once you're past this tedious work and enter the account information into the phone, you can check your e-mail from either your computer or phone.
To assess your e-mail account from one of these phones, you typically have to select e-mail service from a menu. Phones with touch screens have an icon for that on the opening screen. For other phones,you press one of the buttons lining the bottom or sides of the display, much as with an ATM machine. The phone then calls your ISP. When the ISP picks up,the phone automatically transfers your account name and password. Once accepted, the ISP will start sending the phone your messages. By touching the item you want to read or hitting a button next to it,the message will be displayed. Once you've read it, you can reply to the message, move onto the next one, or, with most phones, delete the message from your account. You can check your e-mail manually, but most ephones can also be set to check several times a day automatically. In automatic mode, the phone flashes to tell you mail is waiting. If you happen to be using the phone when it is scheduled to check for e-mail, the phone will automatically try again when the line is free.
One serious drawback to e-mail by phone is that it cannot receive (or send) attached files, whether they contain documents or graphics. Some phones will at tempt to display simple text files as part of the message, but other types of files will appear as gibberish (亂碼), or not at all.
