Meanwhile,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 have already had machines that can tell who you are from your voice or from your finger mark.
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 program can be up to 94% correct,depending on how good the technology is.Some programs may only be 51%.However, the correct rate(准确率) of eye-recognition grogram will be reduced in the dark.
The eye-recognition(眼睛识别) program is being tested in shops and banks in the U.S.A.,Britain,Spain,Italy and Turkey.In Britain,it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of recognizing(认出) you by your eyes.Soon this technology will take the place of all other ways of finding out who people are.

Do you know face changing? The amazing skill in Sichuan Opera is used to express the changing feelings of characters.
There are over 300 kinds of local operas in China. Among them, Sichuan Opera is one of the oldest. As one of the most important and the most interesting opera forms from Southwestern China, it’s popular in Sichuan, Chongqing and some areas of Yunnan and Guizhou. A large number of Sichuan Opera performers are active around Sichuan, both in the countryside and in cities.
The opera has three special skills: changing faces, spitting (吐) fire, and rolling lights. Face changing is the most famous. It’s an important intangible cultural heritage (非物质文化遗产) in China. Only several artists have picked up this skill. They know how to change Sichuan Opera masks magically. As they shake their arms and turn their heads, their painted masks change again and again.
Face changing started about 300 years ago. In the beginning, opera artists changed the color of their faces during performances by blowing into a bowl of red, black or gold powder. The powder would stick to their oiled faces quickly. In another way, actors would cover their faces with colored paste (浆糊) hidden in their hands. By the 1920’s, opera artists began using masks made of oiled paper. At present, the artists use full-face painted silk masks.

The early years of life
A newborn baby can see, hear and feel. By the age of five, a child can talk and ride a bike. How does this development happen? We don't really understand the way language and thinking develop in the brain. Now scientists are using new technology to help them with their studies. They are discovering new information about the way a baby's brain develops.
A study in 2018 shows that the experiences a child has in their first few years are important.
One experiment looked at how newborn babies' brains react to different sounds. The sounds were in different patterns.
Language is important for child development. Babies can hear language in various ways: listening to television, audio books or the Internet and interacting with people.
A.A newborn baby's brain responds to touch positively. |
B.These experiences affect the development of their brain. |
C.For example, the sounds mu-ba-ba make the pattern ‘A-B-B'. |
