　     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(眼睛识别) 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 hands or even your smell! And machines can already tell who you are from your voice or your fingerprints(指纹). 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 the people said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.

      In 1826, a Frenchman named Niepce needed pictures for his business. But he was not a good artist, so he invented a very simple camera（照相机）. He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his garden. That was the first photo. The next important date in the history of photography（摄影术）was in 1837. That year, Daguerre, another Frenchman, took a picture of his reading room. He used a new kind of camera in a different way. In his picture you could see everything very clearly, even the smallest thing. This kind of photo was called a Daguerreotype.

Soon, other people began to use Daguerre's way. Travelers brought back wonderful photos from all around the world. People took picture of famous buildings，cities and mountains.

      In about 1840, photography was developed. Then photographers could take picture of people and moving things. That was not simple. The photographer had to carry a lot of films and other machines. But this did not stop them, for example, some in the United States worked so hard. Mathew Brady was a famous American photographer. He took many pictures of great people. The pictures were unusual because they were very lifelike（栩栩如生的）.

      Photography also became a kind of art by the end of the 19th century. Some photos were not just copies of the real world. They showed ideas and feelings, like other art forms.

      Do you still get free plastic bags from the supermarkets? Things have changed.

      China has banned（禁止）free plastic bags at shops and supermarkets, and people have to pay for using plastic bags. The rule started on June 1, 2008. It came because our country tried to make litter less. Making super-thin（超薄）plastic bags has also been banned.

      The Chinese once used about 3,000,000,000 plastic shopping bags a day, and they have caused pollution of the environment (环境污染). The bags have become a main cause of plastic pollution because they are easy to break and people throw them away here and there. So the Chinese people are encouraged to bring their own bags for shopping.

      What kind of shopping bag is the best to bring? Some students in Chongqing have a good idea. They make their own shopping bags. They use old clothes to make cloth bags（布袋）, and send them to their parent s as presents. They also ask their parents and friends to use cloth bags instead of plastic ones. They think it is their duty to protect（保护）the environment.

        Tony Wheeler was born to travel. His father worked for an airline. For the first 16 years of his life, Wheeler and his family lived in many different countries.

        In the early 1970s, Tony met a young woman named Maureen. They soon married. Before getting jobs, Tony and Maureen wanted to travel. They took a year-long trip from England, through Asia, to Australia. On the trip, they visited places like Iran（伊朗）and India.

When Tony and Maureen arrived in Australia, people asked many questions about their trip. To answer these questions, Wheeler wrote a book calledAcross Asia on the Cheap. The book told people about different countries' weather, customs（风俗）, and places to see. But unlike other travel books then, Tony Wheeler's book also talked about places most tourists did not go. He also wrote about unusual things to see and do. The book was very popular.

        Tony and Maureen started a company called Lonely Planet. They continued travelling. They wrote books for each place they visited. Today, 800 people work for Lonely Planet. The company has over 650 books. Tony Wheeler, the great traveler, still writes about travels to many places and will bring us more surprises.
