Question

【題目】 Everyone knows what a bank is. But do you know that there is an “eye bank” in China?

“Eye bank” is a database of iris information (虹膜信息數(shù)據(jù)庫) of Chinese children. Zhaobao Technology started it to help police identify (鑒定) children.

Iris is a part of the eye. It is very special because people have different irises. We all know that no two people have the same fingerprints (指紋). Although people have different fingerprints, the Irises work better than fingerprints. Because they won’t change much as long as you are 18 months old. That sounds cool, right? So this is your special ID card. And that’s why iris information can be useful in identifying lost children and help people to find the lost children.

Now there is over 93,000 Chinese children’s iris information in the database. The Zhaobao Technology says writing iris information into the eye bank only takes a few seconds and will not bring any harm (傷害) to the children. But still, the company is now facing a few problems, because some parents worry that their children’s information can be in danger, and it will bring some harm to their family.

【解析】

本文是一篇說明文。文章主要了介紹虹膜信息數(shù)據(jù)庫的特別之處，虹膜為什么特別，以及建立虹膜數(shù)據(jù)庫的主要作用。

【1】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第二段““Eye bank” is a database of iris information (虹膜信息數(shù)據(jù)庫) of Chinese children.”可知“眼庫”是中國兒童的虹膜信息數(shù)據(jù)庫。故選C。

【2】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第三段“Iris is a part of the eye. It is very special because people have different irises.”虹膜是眼睛的一部分，它非常特殊是因為人們擁有不同的虹膜。故選A。

【3】

詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文中第三段“Although people have different fingerprints, the Irises work better than fingerprints. Because they won’t change much as long as you are 18 months old.”可知即使人們擁有不同的指紋，但虹膜比指紋更有效。因為只要你18個月大，虹膜將不會有什么變化。所以“they”指“Irises”。故選B。

【4】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第四段“Now there is over 93,000 Chinese children’s iris information in the database.”可知目前數(shù)據(jù)庫中有93000多個中國兒童虹膜信息。故選B。

【5】

細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第三段“…the Irises work better than fingerprints.”可知虹膜比指紋更有效。所以選項A錯誤。根據(jù)文中第四段“The Zhaobao Technology says writing iris information into the eye bank only takes a few seconds and will not bring any harm (傷害) to the children.”可知招寶科技稱只將虹膜信息寫入眼庫僅需幾秒，不會對兒童帶來任何傷害。所以選項B錯誤。根據(jù)文中第三段“…So this is your special ID card.”可知虹膜是人們特殊的身份證。故選C。
