It can swim for up to 10 hours at once.The CEO of Edge Innovations Walt Conti said, “There are about 3，000 dolphins living in ocean parks around the world. They are showing their talents for visitors every day. And they help these parks make several billions of dollars. And it is possible for robotic dolphins to do the same thing and make as much money as real ones do. ”“The most important is, a lifelike dolphin can possibly take the place of a real dolphin. If there are more robotic dolphins, the real ones will be able to go back home,” according to Daily Mail.In fact, people around the world are trying to help dolphins in ocean parks.

So in the future you won’t have to remember a number 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 programme 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.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 programme can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology is. However, some other programmes may only be 51% correct at present. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.In the future your computer will be looking you in the eye. So smile!( ) 49. Where has the eye-recognition programme already been tested in a few countries?A. shops and banksB. shops and schoolsC. banks and schoolsD. schools and hospitals( ) 50. How does the eye-recognition programme work?A. You look at the machine and type a number.B. You need to speak and then look.C. The machine looks at your eyes.D. You look at the machine and speak.( ) 51. We already have machines that can tell who you are from ______.A. your eyes or your smellB. your voice or the mark made by your fingerC. your face or your voiceD. your face or your hand( )52.
