Kaitlin Riffel’s dream to end poverty(貧困) started when she was visiting her father, who worked for the homeless.

“I never realized there were people in the world who didn’t have a home or food before,” said Kaitlin, who is now sixteen. “I knew there was something I had to do about that.”

At age eight, she started raising money to build a playground. "It took me two years," Kaitlin said. "We started small. We wanted to do something to make a difference.”

In 2014, When Kaitlin was thirteen, she visited Central America, and saw people going hungry and families living in houses made of cardboard. That year, we set Kids on a Mission, which has helped hundreds of people there.

“The rooms were smaller than my bedroom, but there would be eight people living in each one," Kaitlin said. “We also got to see the dirty rivers that those people were drinking out of.”

You don’t need to get in a time-travelling machine to see how technology will change our lives, such as the way we shop. Several new technologies that are to change your buying habits already appear. Let’s see what’s in store for your future shopping.

Try it on, virtually(虛擬地). Want to shop online for a new pair of glasses? You don’t need to guess which pair looks best on you—use the eBay Fashion iPhone app to try a pair of glasses you’re checking out on a picture of your face. But what about buying something bigger? Thanks to Microsoft Kinect’s action tracking(跟蹤)camera, you can cover clothes on your screen body. You can even choose the background of your virtual fitting room to improve your shopping experience.

Get a perfect, custom fit. Everyone’s body is shaped differently. To get a perfect fit, you sometimes have to get your clothes changed. But by using 3D scanning technology, all the clothes you buy will fit your body perfectly. Some companies scan(掃描)your body using High-tech to get the real sizes, so they can make special clothes just for you.

High-tech shopping carts(推車(chē))and checkout counters(收銀臺(tái)). High-tech shopping carts could be common in malls and supermarkets in the future. Microsoft Kinect-enabled carts are under test. The cart can follow you along the aisles(通道), controlled only by your movement and your voice.

In the United States, several supermarkets use a certain set called “Scan It” that gives buyers the freedom to scan products on their own while they shop. If we don’t want to wait in line before the checkout counters, we can use Toshiba’s new object Recognition Scanner. The machine identifies(辨認(rèn))a product as soon as it’s placed in front of a camera just by its shape and color, even if it has no bar code.

1.According to Paragraph 2, the eBay Fashion iPhone app can ______.

A. only make pictures of our faces B. help us sell more clothes online

C. create us a virtual dressing room D. choose suitable glasses for us

2.Which of the following can help get the correct shape of our body?

A. Object Recognition Scanner. B. The eBay Fashion iPhone app.

C. 3D scanning technology. D. Microsoft Kinect-enabled carts.

3.What can we infer from this passage?

A. Checkout counters will disappear from supermarkets in future.

B. High-tech shopping carts will be widely used in malls and supermarkets

C. “Scan It” cannot be used by buyers themselves.

D. The new technologies are only dreams that are impossible to come true.

4.This passage mainly talks about ______.

A. a new time-travelling machine B. the influence of new technology

C. some inventions to change habits D. the ways for future shopping
