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 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.
However, scientists are also working on other systems (系统). Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell (气味)! We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.
Eye-recognition 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 eye-recognition program can be up to 94% right, depending on how good the technology is. However, some other programs may only be 51% right now. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.
In the future your computer will be looking you in the eye. So smile!
( ) 46. How does the eye-recognition program work
A. By remembering your ID number. B. By checking your ID card.
C. By looking at your eyes. D. By checking your name.
( ) 47. Which of the following systems has been in use
A. The face-shape-recognition system. B. The hand-recognition system.
C. The smell-recognition system. D. The voice-recognition system.
( ) 48. Which of the following is NOT the reason for the eye-recognition program’s advantage (优势)
A. Eyes don’t change with people’s age. B. Eyes don’t easily get dirty.
C. Not two people’s eyes are the same. D. Eyes can express people’s feelings.
( ) 49. What can we know from the passage
A. The eye-recognition program is being tested in Japan.
B. Machines with other systems can also tell who you are.
C. 91% of people like the idea of the eye-recognition program.
D. The eye-recognition program is 94% right.

As we were 69 (watch) the sheep, Grandpa said to me, “Nick, imagine 70 (you) to do the same job as me. What will you do if one of the sheep is lost Will you go to look for it ”
“Of course,” I replied. “I should provide protection for every sheep. If one sheep is lost, I will do whatever I can 71 (bring) it back.”
Grandpa 72 (shake) his head and said, “You have a kind heart, 73 I don’t think you are smart enough.”
At that time, I didn’t understand. Grandpa continued, “Remember, whatever happens, you must keep your cool. If you don’t, you won’t be able to make right 74 (decide). If one sheep is lost and you go to look for it, what will happen to the other sheep They might get lost, too. What’s worse, wolves might eat them up.”
The 75 (much) I thought about Grandpa’s words, the more I realized how true it was! From then on, I always remember to keep my cool whatever happens.

Dear Andrew,
I’m glad to get your letter. Now let me tell you something about my summer vacation.
I stayed at home most of the time. I spent some time doing my homework. My homework for this vacation was very interesting. I found some information about different plants online and wrote a science report. And I practiced spoken English on an app on the smart phone. Sometimes I helped my parents with the housework. What made me most excited was that my parents took me to Beijing for a trip in the middle of August. We visited Tian’anmen Square and the Great Wall. We also tried the delicious Beijing duck. So you see, I had a great summer vacation.
How was your summer vacation I’m looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours,
Li Ming

The whale is my favorite animal. It is the biggest animal in the world. It’s also one of the cleverest animals. They can communicate with one another. They have a good hearing and they can swim quickly. They mainly live on sea animals like fish. The number of whales used to be very large, but now the situation is different. They have been killed a lot in recent years. People kill them for their meat and oil. Many kinds of whales are in great danger. In order to protect the whale, the International Whaling Commission (IWC) made some rules to stop people from killing whales in 1986. More and more organizations have been trying their best not only to protect whales but also to stop polluting the ocean. Our government has also done a lot to make people know that it is important to protect whales. We teenagers should also try our best to let more people know about this animal.
