　　Open Your Eyes And Let's See Who You Are

　　Inventors have developed a new way to identify people, using a machine that scans their eyeballs．Developed by eyes scan, this new technology takes advantage of the fact that the iris(虹膜)of each person's eye is unique, and remains unchanged throughout a lifetime．

　　The process will replace ________called retina(视网膜)identification, which compared the pattern of veins(静脉)in the back of the eye．Used to control access to nuclear weapons, retina identification has never caught on with the public because it requires the user to put their eyeball right up against a lens．Iris scanning, on the other hand, works from a distance．

　　The iris of the eye is photographed from up to one meter away．The patterns of the iris are translated into digital code, and stored in a PC database, along with personal information．Glasses and contact lenses do not interfere with the scanning process, and it takes only a brief moment．

　　The new technology will be useful for banking and police work, as well as for the Internet economy．Before long, your computer monitor may be equipped with an iris scanner that can identify you when you shop online, thus preventing fraud．

　　There will be no ID cards to carry in your pocket, and no long numbers to memorize．And eyes will be very difficult to counterfeit．

　　Did you lose your ID card?No, you didn't．It's still right up there beside your nose．

In the US and Britain, the slogan around colleges was “Save water. Shower with a friend.” Now, Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse. It charges students for the amount of time in a shower. Before entering the bathhouse, students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card. The clock starts ticking the minute the tape is turned on. It pauses when a button is pressed for soap. An integrated circuit(IC) card reader at each tap shows the time. No money, no water. The benefits of the new system can be seen with the old system, which charged 1 yuan for each person regardless of time in the shower. The university used about 320 tones of water daily under the old system, but only 160 tons now.
Many students use the new system but opinions on it are divided. Some students say it is bad because bathing had become a sort of race. Many people using it for the first time are not sure how long they need to shower. Some might be embarrassed if their time is up and they’re still covered in soap. They have to ask the bathhouse worker to help them buy extra time.
“It’s a flaw in the system that you can not buy extra time on the ID card,” said Ren, a freshman in Wuhan University. The university is also considering some students’ suggestions that they be allowed to pay after they’ve finished the shower. Not surprisingly, some are complaining about losing the hour shower. But many students say the move helps them develop a water-saving sense.
Without the time limits, most students tended to shower for 30 to an hour in the bathhouse. Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes. “In my experience, 10-20 minutes is enough,” said Dai Zhihua, a third-year student who usually takes 8 minutes. A similar system has been installed in other universities. Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in September. The bathing fee there is 0.2 yuan per minute. One male student responded by setting a record with a two-minute shower.

The plastic identification cards carried by all Chinese citizens over 16 are to be replaced with electronic cards.

The new cards, which most people will have by 2007, contain a microchip(微芯片) on which personal information is stored. This can be checked against databases(资料库) kept by the government.

“The information will be locked into the card so that people won’t be able to use false identities.”said Ren Tianbu, a security official in Shenyang.

China’s present plastic identity cards were introduced 17 years ago, and many other countries use a similar system. However, the information shown on a card differs from nation to nation. Most ID cards show the holder’s name, sex, date of birth and photograph.

Germany, France and Spain all use ID cards, but there are some developed nations who dislike the idea. The US, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Sweden and Britain are among those with no national ID card. However, some of the countries have ID cards for particular uses. For example, Australia and the United States use a driving license to identify people.

Identity cards are introduced for a variety of reasons. Race, politics and religion were often at the heart of older ID systems. In recent years, though, ID cards have been linked to national information databases, which form the basis of how a government manages a country.

The US, Britain and some other countries are considering a national ID system as a way of preventing terrorist attacks.

However, such plans have been met with strong resistance by those who believe identity cards work against human rights and personal information.

“ID cards make us suspects, not citizens,” said UK human rights group Liberty.

1.What is one of the differences between China’s new and present ID cards?

A．The new ones contain different personal information.

B．The present ID cards are easier to copy.

C．Even little kids can have the new ID cards.

D．The information on present ID cards isn’t in the databases kept by the government.

2.Which of the following countries does not have an ID card system?

A．France.　　　　　 B．Spain.　　　　 C．Sweden.　　　 D．Germany.

3.What is the main reason why government use ID card systems nowadays?

A．To prevent terrorist attacks.　　　　

B．To fight against crimes.

C．To support government services.　　

D．To have more control on its citizens.

4.The purpose of this passage is to ___________.

A. inform　　

B. entertain　　

C. clear up some mysteries　　

D. remove some misunderstanding
