Question

【題目】 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 (眼睛識(shí)別) 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.

Eye-recognition is a course of recognizing iris (虹膜), which includes the following steps. First, a kind of machine needs to collect different examples of one’s 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 have already had 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% 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 eye-recognition.

In the future your computer will be looking at you in the eye, So smile!

【5】D

【解析】

短文講述了眼睛識(shí)別計(jì)劃，也就是電腦和其他機(jī)器能夠通過你的眼睛來(lái)記住你。以及眼睛識(shí)別的步驟以及眼睛識(shí)別相較于其他識(shí)別例如臉，手，甚至氣味的優(yōu)勢(shì)。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題，第一段中The program works because everyone’s eyes are different. You’ll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are. 程序的運(yùn)作是因?yàn)槊總�(gè)人的眼睛是不同的。你只需要看著機(jī)器它就會(huì)辨認(rèn)出你是誰(shuí)。故選C。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題，第四段We have already had machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.我們已經(jīng)發(fā)明出了由聲音或指紋辨識(shí)的機(jī)器。故選B。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題，倒數(shù)第二段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. 虹膜識(shí)別比其他都要好，因?yàn)槟愕难劬Σ⒉粫?huì)隨著你年齡的增長(zhǎng)而改變，不會(huì)像手和手指一樣會(huì)變臟，而且甚至是雙胞胎也有不同的眼睛。故選C。

【4】主旨大意題，根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容可知整篇文章是介紹眼睛識(shí)別技術(shù)的工作原理、過程、結(jié)果以及優(yōu)點(diǎn)。故選C。

【5】推理判斷題，A選項(xiàng)的成立是基于在未來(lái)的基礎(chǔ)上，而A選項(xiàng)中并沒有提到in the future的前提。故A錯(cuò)誤。B選項(xiàng)可通過 “Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell!”得知?dú)馕蹲R(shí)人的技術(shù)當(dāng)前并沒有研發(fā)出來(lái)。C選項(xiàng)可通過 “Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes!” 知道虹膜識(shí)別技術(shù)當(dāng)前還沒有研發(fā)出來(lái)。D選項(xiàng)我們可從原文 “We have already had machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.” 正確。故選D。
