Question

【题目】 It’s reported that much attention has already been turning to the 2020 Summer Olympics and Paralympics（残奥会）in Tokyo, and reporters indicate that facial recognition（人脸识别） will be used as a security method at these games.

The Japan Times reported that the technology would be used when athletes, officials and reporters enter the sports centers. The number of people that will be screened(识别) with facial recognition could be up to between 300,00 and 50,000,according to the report.

The organizing committee（委员会）tested the technology at the Japanese group’s living places during the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. They achieved some success though people were complaining the long waits. They hope to solve the long waits and other problems over the 2 years ahead of the Tokyo Games, which will start in late July 2020.
