Do you use WeChat Payment or Alipay to buy things? Now, you have one more choice－Apple Pay. Apple Pay came to China on Feb 18, making China the fifth country to have this service. Apple products, like the iPhone 6 and certain iPads and Apple Watches, support this service.

The customers of 19 Chinese banks will be able to link their bank cards to Apple Pay. When they buy things, they just need to place their iPhone in front of the POS machine and put their fingers on the iPhone.

Last year, did you find that you kept using words like memeda (a phrase to show cuteness and love) and xiaoxianrou (meaning “young and pretty men”)?If yes, you are not alone. The two words were so popular that they were included in 2015’s “most popular cyber* words and phrases” lists in China.

Most of the words and phrases seem funny and playful, but they also show lifestyle changes. The term duoshoudang (meaning “shopping addicts*”) is a good example.Meanwhile, xiasibaobaole (meaning “you scared the pants off me”) is also used for fun.

The opening of Shanghai’s new DisneylandPark has been highly expected since construction began in April 2008. It will be finished in June. When it opens, the park will have the biggest castle of any Disneyland and one of the largest lakes too. There are also new special attractions, especially for Chinese visitors.

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
