The Christmas holidays are a time to give. These charities in America are looking for

volunteers and donations. Read on to learn more about them.

American Red Cross

All you need is a pen and a piece of paper. The American Red Cross Holiday Mail

is collecting handwritten cards to send to members of the US Armed Forces during the holidays.

The charity has also set up a Holiday Giving Catalog where you can buy personal gifts.

Make-A-Wish Foundation

The goal of Make-A-Wish Foundation is to make the wishes of children with life-threatening

illnesses come true. Through support and donations, the foundation has made dreams come true

for thousands of children.

will donate $1 to Make-A-Wish for every letter received.

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 has already been tested in shops and banks in the

USA, Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Soon this technology(技术) will take the place of all other

ways of finding out who people are.

However, scientists are also 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,

and don’t get dirty like hands or fingers, and even twins have different eyes. So the eye-

recognition programme can be up to 94% correct, depending on( 取决于 ) how good the

technology is. However, some other programmes may only be 51% correct at present. 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 you in the eye. So smile!

( )1. Where has the eye-recognition programme already been tested in a few countries?

A. shops and banks B. shops and schools

C. banks and schools D. schools and hospitals

( ) 2. How does the eye-recognition programme work?

A. You look at the machine and type a number.

B. You need to speak and then look.

C. The machine looks at your eyes.

D. You look at the machine and speak.

( )3. We already have machines that can tell who you are from ______.

A. your eyes or your smell

B. your voice or the mark made by your finger

C. your face or your voice

D. your face or your hand

( )4. Which of the following doesn’t belong to the advantages of the eye-recognition programme?

A. Your eyes don’t change as you grow older.

B. Eyes don’t get dirty like hands or fingers.

C. Everyone’s eyes are different, even twins have different eyes.

D. We can’t see anything without eyes.

Reading is the key to school success and，like any skill，it takes practice. A child learns to

walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other.

An excellent sportsman practices until he can play quickly, correctly and without thinking.

Educators call it “automaticity (自动性)”.

A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and finding the meaning of the words.

With practice, he stumbles less and less, reading by the phrase. With automaticity, he doesn’t

have to think about the meaning of words, so he can give all his attention to the meaning of the

text.[来源:学。科。网]

It can begin as early as the first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools, Alan

Rossman of Northwestern University found that automatic readers in the first grade not only read

almost three times as fast as the others, but also got better results in exams.
