The cost of medical care in the US is very high．The time and money that  1  spend on their medical education is probably one reason  2  this problem．

A visit to a doctor’s office    3    from fifteen to fifty dollars．It is almost   4   for people to pay for the medical care they need．Many people in the US think that doctors  5  overpaid． Most doctors ,however,．    6   ．They say that they are required to study    7  for a long lime．Tuition(學費)for many    8  of medical education costs   9   money .Doctors say that it is necessary for most medical students to borrow money from  10   to pay their tuition．Because this money must be repaid to the bank．  11   doctors need to receive a lot of money for their work .  12   ，they charge(收費)people   13   prices for medical care．

Therefore．it is possible that the high cost of medical care in   14   is necessary，because high tuition is one cause of high costs．One way to  15  costs would be to have medical schools that are free or have low tuition．

Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The programme works because everyone’s eyes are different. So in the future you won’t have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You’ll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are. The eye-recognition(眼睛識別) programme is tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain and Italy.

Scientists are working on other systems, such as knowing you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell! And machines can already tell who you are from your voice or your fingerprint(指紋). But eye-recognition will replace other ways of finding out who you are. It is better, 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 programme can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology is. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，選擇正確答案。

1.Where has the programme for remembering eyes been tested?

2. How does the eye-recognition programme work?

3. Which recognition technology is already in use?

4.What problems could there be with the eye-recognition programme?

5.What is the advantage of the eye-recognition programme?

　　Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes. The program works because everyone's eyes are different. So in the future you won't have to remember the number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You'll just have to look at the machine and it will be able to tell who you are.

　　The eye-recognition (眼睛識別) program is already being tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Soon this technology will take the place of all other ways of finding out who people are.

　　However 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 already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.

　　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 right 51% of the time. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.

　　In the future your computer will be looking at you in the eye. So smile!
