 Facial-recognition (人脸识别) cameras are everywhere--even in your smartphone. May people use this technology to unlock their phones, open doors, or make quick payments. But during the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a problems: everyone wears masks. What a great trouble!

 Scientists are trying to solve this problem. For example, Engineering & Technology (E&T) magazine reports that Hanwang, a tech company in Beijing, has made a new system (系统). It can recognize 95 percent of people when they wear masks.

 What’s the secret (秘密)? It’s all about your eyes. Marios Savvides from Carnegie Mellon University, US, studies facial recognition. As we get older, he says, our faces change shape. But the part around our eyes doesn’t. It stays the same --even if we become heavier. As long as there is enough information from that part, the cameras can recognize us.

 Tech 5 is another facial-recognition company. This company scans (扫描) the shape of your face. It also scans your iris, which is the colored part of your eyes. Tech 5 hopes to ignore (忽略) all of the face below the nose.

 This kind of technology is more important than just opening your doors. “It can detect crime suspects (寻找犯罪嫌疑人) and terrorists even when they wear masks,” said Huang Lei from Hanwang. Chinese police used Hanwang’s technology in places like subway stations and airports. The United States Air Force also used the similar technology.

 Huang pointed out one big weakness (不足): it fails when people wear both a mask and sunglasses. “In this situation, all of the key facial information is lost,” Lei said to E&T.

61. What problem does Hanwang’s new system try to solve?

 A. How to unlock phones with facial-recognition technology.

 B. How to protect people during the pandemic

 C. How to find crime suspects at subway stations and airports.

 D. How to make facial-recognition work when people wear masks.

62. According to Marios Savvides, we can know that

 A. cameras can always recognize people by their shape of face

 B. the part around our eyes stays the same shape as we get older

 C. becoming heavier may change the shape of our eyes

 D. facial-recognition technology works better on young people

63. Which part of the face does Tech: 5use to develop their technology?

 A. Mouth.  B. Face color.  C. Iris.  D. Nose.

64. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?

 A. Ways of finding terrorists.

 B. The weakness of the new technology.

 C. Similar technologies to facial-recognition.

 D. Why the new facial-recognition technology is important.

65. To make facial-recognition technology work better, maybe scientists can ___________.

 A. ask all the people not to wear masks and sunglasses

 B. find the lost key facial information back

 C. let the companies work together to improve it

 D. invent new medicine to end the pandemic

C

 The week right before Mother’s Day, I still bought nothing for Mom. So when the principal (校长) said over the loudspeaker that one of the older graders would sell pins (胸针) called “No. 1 Mom”, I was really happy.

 Then each day, I told myself that the following day I would bring the money to buy the pin, but I always forgot. So I felt down when the principal and some older kids came into my classroom and said that it was the last day to buy pins.

 I always dreaded my principal. If you broke rules, she was quick to set you straight. On this day, however, she seemed pleased. As she knew that I forgot my money again, she said nothing.

 But just after she left, I got called to her office. I arrived shaking, for I never got there. But the principal just told me to come to her desk smilingly. There, she pulled out the pin I had my eye on for days.

 “The kids gave me this to give to my mom.” she said, and then looked at me with a soft look that I’d never seen, “But she passed away. So I want you to have it.”

 Taking the pin. I looked at it for long. I thanked her and walked back to class, and proudly showed this free gift to my mom.

 I don’t know if my mom still has the pin, and I don’t know if the principal remembers giving it to me. But I will never forget those soft eyes!

 A. wanted to give a pin as a gift to his mom

 B. planned to make some money by selling pins

 C. thought his mom was the best mom in the world

 D. always didn’t know what to give to his mom on her special day
