Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The programme 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 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 don’t 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 you in the eye. So smile!

1.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.

2.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 programme is widely used around the world.

3.The eye-recognition programme can know you from ___________.

   A. the shape of your hand       

B. the shape of your foot

   C. your voice                 

D. your mark made by your finger

4.Which of the following is true?

   A. The programme is being tested in Japan.

   B. Machines with other systems can also tell who you are.

A man once had a dream about the Black Forest in Germany. In his dream he was walking in the forest when two men ran out and tried to throw him to the ground. He ran off as fast as he could, but they followed him. He reached a place where he saw two roads in front of him, one to the right and the other to the left. Which road should he take? He heard the two men behind him, getting nearer, and at the same time he heard a voice in his ear. It told him to go to the right, and he did so. He ran on and soon came to a small hotel.
