Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes!The program works because everyone's eyes are different. So in the future you won't have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You’ll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are.

The eye­recognition(眼睛识别)program has already been tested in shops and banks in the USA,Britain,Spain,Italy and Turkey. Soon this technology will take the place of all other ways of finding out who people are.

Eye­recognition is a course of recognizing iris(虹膜),which includes the following steps. First,a kind of machine needs to collect different examples of one's iris from his eyes and store them. Second,when this person goes to the bank to take out money,this machine will have iris feature extraction(采集).Then,this machine will compare the examples kept in it with iris feature extraction. Once the examples and the feature extraction are the same,this person will be identified,and he will take out the money from the bank successfully.

However,scientists are also working on other systems. Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell!We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.

Eye­recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don't change as you get older,and don't get dirty like hands or fingers,and even twins have different eyes. So the eye­recognition program can be up to 94% correct,depending on how good the technology is. However,some other programs may only be 51% correct now. In Britain,it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye­recognition.

In the future your computer will be looking at you in the eye.So smile!

1.C 2.B 3.C 4.C 【解析】短文大意:识别人有眼睛识别,声音,脸型或指纹识别等多种方式。本文主要介绍了眼睛识别程序,介绍了它的发展趋势以及优点。世界上每个人的眼睛独一无二,眼睛是不会随着年龄的长大而改变的,所以这种识别人的方法很准确。 1.C 细节理解题。根据短文中第一段最后的句子“You’ll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are.”可知,你只需要看看机器,眼睛识别程序就能分辨出你是谁。答案为C。 2.B 细节理解题。根据短文中的句子“We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.”可知,指纹识别系统已经投入使用。答案为B。 3.C 细节判断题。根据短文中的句子“The program works because everyone's eyes are different. and even twins have different eyes.”可知,每个人的眼睛都独一无二,即使是双胞胎的眼睛也是不一样的,C答案正确。 4.主旨大意题。根据短文内容可知,文章的主旨就是介绍眼睛识别系统的发展趋势以及存在的优势。故答案为C。 点睛:这是一篇科普类说明文,理解起来有一定的难度。在做根据短文判断正误时,首先我们要仔细研读题干句子及四个备选答案,带着问题阅读原文,在原文中找出相对应的句子,对照辨别两者是否相同,只有完全符合文章意思的句子,才可判断为正确。如第3小题。正确答案是C。也要判断其它的选项为何不对。根据文中句子“So the eye­recognition program can be up to 94% correct.” 眼睛识别程序正确率可以高达94% ,A错误;根据“In Britain,it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye­recognition.”可知,在实验中使用过眼镜识别系统的人群中有91%的人喜欢这种想法。并非所有人群中,答案B错误;根据“The eye­recognition (眼睛识别) program has already been tested in shops and banks in the USA,Britain,Spain,Italy and Turkey.”可知,眼睛识别系统还处于测试阶段,还没有大批量投入使用, 故D答案错误。

Almost two thirds of children want their parents to spend more time reading to them before they go to bed. Most of these kids like mom's storytelling more than dad’s. Researchers said they carried out a study that showed younger children aged 3-4 were most hungry for more stories. Over three quarters of them said they wished their parents to read to them more often. More than half of all children aged 3-8 said story time was their favorite pastime with their parents.

“The results of our research reveal the traditional activity of storytelling continues to be a powerful learning and emotional resource(资源)in children's lives,” said child psychologist Richard Wolfson.

Storytelling ranked before television or video games among pastimes for kids.82 percent of them said reading a story with their parents helped them sleep better. This finding came from a survey of 500 children aged 3-4 in Britain. According to the research,there are two ways for mothers to become the best storytellers. They can use funny voices to show different characters in a story. They can also make their own special sounds to keep the story interesting and attractive. When mom and dad are not at hand,celebrities will do: over 30 percent of children said they would like to hear a bedtime story from famous people like Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe. Other movie stars like Zac Efron,Miley Cyrus and Emma Watson are also welcomed by children.

“It can be very difficult for parents to find the time to read with their children. But these moments can help build close relationship between parents and children,and also can play an important part in their child's development,”said Wolfson.

1.The study shows that as four­year­old children get older,they ________.

C. ask children to play different roles in the stories

D. make a lot of noise to keep the children awake

3.The word “celebrities” in the third paragraph refers to persons ________.

A. who love children very much    B. who are known about by many people

C. who write stories for children    D. who can tell stories very well

4.With the last paragraph,the passage wants to tell us that ________.

Why do earthquakes happen?Scientists explain that the outside of the earth is made of a number of different plates(板块).For example,at San Francisco the Pacific(太平洋的)Plate which is moving towards the northwest meets the North American Plate. The Pacific Plate is moving very slowly—at 5.3 centimeters a year. Sometimes these two plates stop and do not move for years. Then suddenly,they jump and an earthquake is felt. As a result of the movement of these plates,West America near the sea has always been a bad place for earthquakes. When the 1906 earthquake happened,the Pacific Plate jumped 5-6 meters to the north.

We cannot stop earthquakes,but we can do things to make sure they don't destroy(毁坏)the whole cities. First,it is not a good idea to build houses along the lines,where two of the earth's plates join together. Second,if you think there may be an earthquake,it is better to build houses on rock not on sand. Third,you must make the houses as strong as possible. Weak buildings will fall down in an earthquake,but strong ones may stay up.

1.An earthquake can be felt ______.

A. when two plates push each other    B. when one plate becomes a bad place

C. when one plate meets the sea    D. when two plates don't move for years

2.An earthquake shook San Francisco in the past because ________.

A. San Francisco stands along between the Pacific Plate and the North American Plate

B. San Francisco stands near the Pacific

C. the plate of San Francisco always moves slowly

D. the city of San Francisco wasn't built very well

3.What can we do to make sure earthquakes don't destroy the whole cities?

Build houses far from the earthquake lines.

Build houses on rock not on sand.

Make the houses as strong as possible.

Stop weak earthquakes.

A. ①②③    B. ②③④    C. ①③④    D. ①②③④

Have you been asked for money by some disabled beggars(乞丐)while you're enjoying shopping?Do you have any pity on them who are so poor and lonely or do you just feel afraid of their terrible shapes?As one of the most special groups,disabled people's living conditions—not only their material(物质的)conditions,but their mental(精神的)world—really need improvement.

The treatment for disabled people should go like this: First,don't look down upon them. Don’t be afraid of looking at the terrible shapes of the disabled. Try to treat them equally.Because they are a part of the society,we can't discard(抛弃)them. The second is to help them as much as we could. If you can be a volunteer and do some work for the disabled people,that would be very nice. That does help not only to the disabled people but also to yourself because you will feel good after your kind action.

If every one of us gives a little love,the world will become a beautiful wonderland!
