fingerprints into clay to record business trade. the chinese used ink-on-paper finger impressions for business. however, fingerprinting wasnt used as a method for identifying criminals until the 19th centuryin 1858, sir william herschel was working as an official of the hooghly district in jungipoor, indiain order to reduce fraud（诈骗）, he had people living in the district record their fingerprints when signing business documents. a few years later, scottish doctor henry faulds was working in japan when he discovered fingerprints left by artists on ancient pieces of claythis finding inspired him to begin investigating fingerprintsin 1880, faulds wrote to his cousin, the famous naturalist charles darwin, and asked for help with developing a fingerprint classification systemdarwin refused, but sent the letter to his cousin, sir francis gallon, who was an eugenicist (优生学家). gallon began collecting fingerprints and eventually gathered some 8, 000 different samples to analyze. in 1892, he published a book called fingerprints, in which he outlined a fingerprint classification systemthe first existencearound the same time, juan vucetich, a police officer in buenos aires, argentina, was developing his own version of a fingerprinting systemin 1892, vucetich was called in to assist with the investigation of the two boys murdered in necoche, a village near buenos aires. their mother, francisca rojas, accused a neighbour named velasquez. but when vucetich compared the fingerprints found at the murder scene to those of both velasquez and rojas, they matched rojas exactlyshe admitted her crime. this was the first time fingerprints had been used in a criminal investigation.vucetich called his system comparative dactyloscopy（指纹鉴定法）. its still used in many spanish-speaking countriessir edward henry, in charge of the metropolitan police of london, soon became interested in using fingerprints to catch criminals. in 1896, he added to gallons technique, creating his own classification system, the henry classification system. it is the primary method of fingerprint classification throughout most of the world56herschel had people record their fingerprints so as to_a. develop a fingerprinting system b. prevent illegal businessc. put them on pieces of clay d. collect and study fingerprints57who first came up with the idea of creating a fingerprint classification

fingerprinting system is still used all over the world60what is the text mainly about?a. different uses of fingerprints b. the history of fingerprintingc. countries that first used fingerprintsd. the

ground at japans tens of thousands of hot springs could be used to produce electricityalthough japanese high-tech companies are leaders in geothermal（地热的） technology and export it, its use is limited in the nationjapan should no doubt make use of its resources of geothermal energy, said yoshiyasu takefuji, a leading researcher of thermal-electric power productionthe disastrous earthquake and tsunami on march 11, 2011 caused a reaction against atomic power, which previously made up 30 percent of japans energy needs, and increased interest in alternative energies, which account for only 8 percentartist yoko ono has called on japan to explore its natural energy, following the example of iceland which uses renewable energy for more than 80 percent of its needsfor now, geothermal energy makes up less than 1 percent of the energy needs in japan, which has for decades relied heavily on fossil fuels and atomic powerthe biggest problem to geothermal energy is the high initial cost of the exploration and constructing the factoriesanother problem is that japans potentially best sites are already being developed for tourism or are located within national parks where construction is forbiddenwe cant even dig 10cm inside national parks said shigeto yamada of fuji electric, adding that regulations protecting nature would need to be relaxed for geothermal energy to growresearcher hideaki matsui said, producing electricity using hot springs is a decades-long projectwe also have to think about what to do for now as energy supplies will decline in the short termthe earth policy institute in washington, us, believed japan could produce 80,000 megawatts（兆瓦）and meet more than half its electricity needs with geothermal technologyjapanese giants such as toshiba are already global leaders in geothermal technology, with a 70 percent market sharein 2010, fuji electric built the worlds largest geothermal factory in new zealand61what would be the best title for the text?aalternative energies in japan bworlds largest geothermal plantcjapan takes the lead in geothermal technology djapan thinks of geothermal energy 62what percentage of japans energy needs is
