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 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 ones 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 dont change as you get older，and dont 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!31 .

The popular food was invented in 1853 by George Crum, who was a cook at Moon Lake Restaurant in Saratoga Springs，New York. A guest complained that the fried potatoes that Crum had cooked were too thick. Crum thought the guest was making trouble. In return，he cut potatoes paper thin and fried them. The guest loved what soon became known as “Saratoga Chips”， and the new dish became the most popular in the restaurant. Other restaurants in the eastern United States borrowed the idea，but potato chips were not produced for home use until William Tappenden of Cleveland，Ohio started the first potato chip factory in Cleveland，which made lots of money for him.Potatoes are made up of about 25% solids (固体)，mostly starches (淀粉) and sugar，and 75% water. Marsha McNcil Sherman，Director of Fast Food Association in Los Angeles，explains，“Frying is a way to dry the potato. More of the water can be found in the middle of the potato .So，the edges (边) of potatoes are fried faster than the middle.”35 .

A spaceman needs a strong body and mind. See here what spacemen are able to do. They have many abilities that may make you amazed.

Before they fly into space, they have lots of practice. Each upside-down training time lasts for 20 days.Spacemen arent just spaceship drivers but also machine repairers and scientists. They have to know every part of the spaceship and how it works. If something goes wrong, they must know how to make it work again. Also they do scientific experiments in space.Spacemen know how to live in the wild. They take a knife, a gun and some dye (染料) with them into space. If they land in forests, the knife and gun can protect them from wild animals. If they fall into the sea, the dye can colour the sea water around them yellow. This can help people find them easily on the sea.Spacemen cant get dizzy (眩晕的). A spaceship is not a plane. When it goes up, the extra gravity force can break peoples bones.
