An ID card is the most important proof of identity for each person. It shows one’s name, date of birth, address, nationality, photo and ID number.

China’s top legislature (立法机关) added something new to the Resident Identity Card Law. It passed the suggestions of recording Chinese citizens’ fingerprints when they apply for or change ID cards.

Fingerprints would make it easier to recognize the people who own the cards. It can stop people from making fake ID cards.

Li Xiao’ou, a bank worker in Beijing, said fingerprint data will make bank business safer. “No two people have the same fingerprints,” he said. “The new card can better protect their private information. It will prevent their identity from being used by others when people want to do banking.”

As ID cards will contain more personal information, many people worry that some institutions (公共机构) may let their information out. The amended law tries to better protect it. Government offices and other public institutions, like banks and hospitals, could face a fine of 500,000 yuan if they give out citizens’ personal information.

Very often, new-born babies are not beautiful. They are wrinkled(多皱的)or

hairless, or they have an angry look on their faces. They seem to say, “Get away!

I hate everybody.” But to a parent, that hairless, wrinkled, angry-faced baby is the

most beautiful and perfect child in the world. When that proud(骄傲的) father or mother

asks you, “Well, what do you think of my baby? Isn’t she beautiful?” what are you going to say? Is the time for the truth? Of course not!

You look that proud father in the eye and say, “Yes, she is! She’s really a beauty. She’s one in a million. She’s going to be a movie star! I can tell! She’s as beautiful as a picture.”

In English, this is a white lie. White lies don’t hurt people. They are not cruel(残忍的)or angry words. People use them to make a difficult thing a little easier. When people don’t want to meet someone, or eat something new that they really don’t like at a friend’s house, they tell a white lie. They are trying to be kind. They don’t want to hurt someone. It’s important to be honest, but many people feel that being kind is sometimes more important.
