Usually people with better education are able to get better jobs,In other words,they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t.It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs.But it isn’t true.

Some people may think that a person spends the best years of his life to get education only to make a living.This was probably one of reasons of education.In fact,if education is just a way of making a living,people don’t need to spend so much time in school. If people just want to make a living,they can get a short-time education.Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone.Even language and math need not be taught in detail(詳細(xì)地),either.It is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.

Education is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write,but also to develop his other abilities.It can make him a wise man and enjoy the achievements of humans.Education is to make a man lead to a better life.Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music,read good books,watch plays and,most of all,take an interest in the world.

I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education,but certainly not the most important one.

1.The writer thinks people with little education usually have more chances to get jobs.

2.People needn’t learn much in school if they only want to make a living from the passage.

3.It is expected that educated people will be able to have a better life in the world.

4.The most important reason for education is to make a good living.

5.The passage mainly tells us that people can get education in a short time.

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 of your credit card 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(shí)別）program has already been 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.

Eye-recognition is a course of recognizing iris（虹膜）, which includes the following steps. First, a kind of machine needs to collect different examples of one’s iris from his eyes and store them. Second, when this person goes to the bank to take out money, this machine will have iris feature extraction（采集）. Then, this machine will compare the examples kept in it with iris feature extraction. Once the examples and the feature extraction are the same, this person will be identified, and he will take out the money from the bank successfully.

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 program can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology is. However, some other programs may only be 51% correct now. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of

eye-recognition.
