著伯恩斯的詩以及其他一些書。故答案選C。BImagine you’re standing in line to buy an afterschool snack at a store. You step up to the counter and the cashier scans your food. Next, you have to pay. But instead of scanning a QR code(二維碼)with your smartphone, you just hold out your hand so the cashier can scan your fingerprint. Or a camera scans your face, your eyes or even your ears. Now, this type of technology might not be far away. As technology panies move away from the traditional password biometric(生物特征識別的)security, which includes fingerprint, face and voice ID, is being increasingly popular. In 2013, Apple introduced the iPhone 5s, one of the first smartphones with a fingerprint scanner. Since then, using one’s fingerprint to unlock a phone and make mobile payments has bee monplace, bringing convenience to our lives. And since last year, Samsung has featured eye scanning technology in its top smartphones, while Apple’s new iPhone X can even scan a user’s face. But despite its popularity, experts warn that biometrics might not be as secure as we’d imagined. Biometrics are ideally good, but in practice, not so much”, said John Michener, a biometrics expert. When introducing the new iPhone’s Face ID feature, Phil Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president, said, “The chance that a random person in the population could look at your iPhone X and unlock it with their face is about one in a million. ” But it’s already been done. In a video posted on munity website Reddi, two brothers showed how they were each able to unlock the same iPhone X using their own face. And they aren’t even twins. “We may expect too much from biometrics, ” Anil K. Jain, a puter science professor at Michigan State University, told CBS News. “No security systems are perfect. ”Earlier this year, Jain found a way to trick biometric security. Using a printed copy of a thumbprint, he was able to unlock a dead person’s smartphone for the police, “It’s good to see biometrics being used more, ” Jain told CBS News, “because it adds another factor for security. But using multiple security measures is the best defense. ”【文章大意】本文是一篇議論文, 近年來生物識別技術(shù)被廣泛運用, 如指紋眼部掃描以及臉部掃描, 人們認(rèn)為這些系統(tǒng)非常安全, 但實際情況并非如此, 生物識別安全系統(tǒng)并不是完全安全, 文章中列舉了很多人對生物識別技術(shù)的觀念。4. What is the latest technology to unlock a smartphone according to the article? A. QR code scanning. B. Face scanning. C. Fingerprint scanning. D. Eye scanning. 【解析】選B。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第三句And since last year, Samsung has featured eye scanning technology in its top smartphones, while Apple’s new iPhone X can even scan a user’s face. 可知, 蘋果公司運用了臉部識別技術(shù), 這是最新的生物識別方法, 故B項正確。5. What’s a major problem of the iPhone X’s Face ID system? A. It takes too long to unlock the phone. B. It often fails to recognize its owner’s face. C. Face data could be used for other purposes. D. Different faces could be used to unlock the same phone. 【解析】選D。細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段最后兩句In a video posted on munity website Reddi, two brothers showed how they were each able to unlock the same iPhone X using their own face. And they aren’t even twins. 可知, 有兩個兄弟用自己的臉解開了同一個蘋果手機, 而且他們不是雙胞胎, 故D項正確。6. What does Anil K. Jain think of biometric security? A. It’s as secure as traditional measures. B. It has caused much trouble for the police. C. It should be used with other security measures. D. It is perfect without any room for improvement. 【解析】選C。推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段可知, Anil K. Jain認(rèn)為人們對生物識別期望太高了, 沒有一種安全系統(tǒng)是完美的。再根據(jù)最后一段最后兩句可知, Anil K. Jain認(rèn)為我們應(yīng)該使用多樣化的安全防范保證安全, 也就是說, 他認(rèn)為, 生物識別技術(shù)應(yīng)該同其他的安全措施結(jié)合使用, 故C項正確。7. What is the author’s purpose of writing this article? A. To describe the popularity of biometrics. B. To show how biometrics has changed our lives. C. To point out various problems with biometrics. D. To discuss the security problems of biometrics. 【解析】選D。主旨大意題。本文是一篇議論文。近年來生物識別技術(shù)被廣泛運用, 如指紋、眼部掃描以及臉部掃描, 人們認(rèn)為這些系統(tǒng)非常安全, 但實際情況并非如此, 生物識別安全系統(tǒng)并不是完全安全, 文章中列舉了很多人對生物識別技術(shù)的觀點, 故D項正確。Ⅱ. 閱讀填句(2021長春高二檢測) Choosing a major is a very important thing in our life.
