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 eye-recognition(眼睛识别) program is tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain and Italy.
Scientists are working on other systems, such as knowing you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell! And machines can already tell who you are from your voice or your fingerprint(指纹). But eye-recognition will replace other ways of finding out who you are. It is better, because your eyes don’t change as you get older, or get dirty like hands or fingers. And even twins have different eyes, so the program can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology is. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.

【推荐2】What would the world be like if cars could drive themselves?Imagine seeing an empty car passing by on its way to pick up its owner, or a car full of passengers who are reading, listening to music or even sleeping. But none of them is worried about the road ahead.
Well, all of these could be the future of driving. There are several companies, for example, Google, working on driverless cars. So far, no Google selfdriven car has got a traffic ticket, but some of them have been in accident when other cars hit them.
These cars are now still in the testing stages. If the tests are successful, these electric, selfdriven cars could be available very soon. But how is it possible for a car to drive itself?Cars already have many features allowing them to take the place of drivers during certain situations. Some features include cars being able to park themselves, or slow down when they notice other cars close by. They can also control the speed if there are dangerous conditions.
Scientists believe that with the help of wireless signals, cameras and GPS, it is possible to create a safe selfdriven car very soon.
The cause of deadly road accidents is usually careless drivers or dangerous conditions. The selfdriven car may be able to stop this. However, some people do not like the idea. American lawyer Whit Drake, for example, doesn't believe these cars are safe. He thinks that technologies can also be mistakes.
1. The main purpose of the first paragraph is to ________.| A．get readers to pay attention to road safety |

| C．ask readers to keep away from heavy traffic |
| D．make readers be interested in selfdriven cars |
| A．solar energy | B．water |

【推荐3】Scientists have written a report on the future of trade and industry. They talk about the role that robots will play in industry. What is a robot? Basically it is a machine which is designed to do the work of a human being.
It is usually controlled by a computer. Once it has been given a set of things to do, it will do the job on its own.
Nowadays, Britain has 120 robots at work in industry. In Japan there are 4000 robots in use. In the USA there are 2000 and in Germany there are 500. According to the report, the government must help people understand how robot technology can be used. Also, people must be educated to know how important this new technology is. The designing of new robots will be very important in the future.
The report says that special robot centers should be set up, so the people who design robots and the people who will use them can work together. The assembly(装配) work of the future will be complex(复杂的). so companies must develop robots to do it.
