and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! the programme works because everyones eyes are different. so in the future you wont have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. youll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are. the eye-recognition（识别）programme is already being 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 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.eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes dont change as you get older, or get dirty like hands or fingers. and even twins have different eyes, so the programme can be up to 94 correct, depending on how good the technology is. some programmes may only be right 51 of the time. 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 at you in the eye. so smile!38. how does the eye-recognition programme work? a. you write your number. b. you show your id card. c. you look at the machine. d. you say your name.39. why can the programme be up to 94 correct? a. because eyes never change. b. because hands or fingers can get dirty. c. because people like the idea of the programme. d. because the

chinese english. because of her english, she was often treated unfairly. people in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, pretended（假装） not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.my mother has realized the disadvantages of her english as well. when i was fifteen, she used to have me call people on phone to pretend i was she. i was forced to ask for information or even to yell at people who had been rude to her. one time i had to call her stockbroker（股票经纪人）. i said in a voice that was not very convincing, “this is mrs. tan.” and my mother was standing beside me, whispering loudly, “why he doesnt send me the check. its already two weeks late.”and then, in perfect english i said: “im getting rather anxious .you agreed to send the check two weeks ago, but it hasnt arrived.” then she talked more loudly. “what does he want? ill come to new york and say it in front of his boss.” and so i turned to the stockbroker again, “i cant accept any more excuses. if i dont receive the check immediately, i have to speak to your manager when i am in new york next week.”the next week we ended up in new york. while i was sitting there red-faced, my mother, the real mrs. tan, was shouting to his boss in her broken english. when i was a teenager, my mothers broken english embarrassed (使困窘) me. but now, i see it differently. to me, my
