花旗測試掃描視網(wǎng)膜取款技術(shù)
Citigroup is testing new technology that will allow customers to withdraw money using retinal scanning.
花旗銀行(Citigroup)正在測試允許客戶通過掃描視網(wǎng)膜取款的新技術(shù)。
The bank wants to replace PIN codes with biometric scanners that could identify customers using only their eyes.
花旗銀行打算用僅通過客戶的眼睛即可識別其身份的生物識別掃描儀來取代個人識別號碼。
Customers would use a smartphone app to key in the amount they want to draw out ahead of time.
客戶只需在智能手機客戶端上提前輸入他們想取出的金額就可以了。
As they approached the ATM, the app would link up to the machine and use retinal scanning to confirm the customer’s identity.
當(dāng)客戶走近自動取款機時，該客戶端將與自動取款機連接，并通過掃描視網(wǎng)膜確認(rèn)其身份。
The ATM would then release the cash, providing the scanner recognises the individual.
若掃描儀識別出客戶的身份，自動取款機就會吐出現(xiàn)金。
Citigroup said the retinal scans would take 15 seconds to complete compared to 45 seconds for traditional transactions.
花旗銀行表示，傳統(tǒng)交易方式需花費45秒，而視網(wǎng)膜掃描技術(shù)可在15秒內(nèi)完成交易。
It would, they claim, be more secure and would mean that cards could never be skimmed at an ATM again.
該銀行聲稱，此項技術(shù)更加安全，將意味著再也不用將銀行卡插入自動提款機了。
The Wall St Journal reported that Citigroup has not set a date for when the retinal scanners would be introduced.
《華爾街日報》報道稱，花旗銀行尚未確定何時將視網(wǎng)膜掃描儀投入使用。
The bank may have to overcome privacy concerns as some customers may be uncomfortable giving their biometric data to such an institution.
花旗可能需要解決人們對隱私的擔(dān)憂，因為部分客戶可能會對將自己的生物識別數(shù)據(jù)提供給銀行這種機構(gòu)感到不安。
Citigroup says it has been working with cash machine manufacturer Diebold and has confirmed that preliminary scanning tests have been carried out on 30 consumers in a laboratory at its head office in New York.
花旗稱，該銀行一直都在與自動取款機制造商迪堡（Diebold）公司合作�；ㄆ煦y行還確認(rèn)，花旗已經(jīng)在紐約總行的實驗室對30名客戶進行了初步的掃描測試。
The test cash machines do not even need a screen or a touchpad as all the information is loaded by the app ahead of time.
受測的自動取款機甚至不需要安裝屏幕或觸摸板。因為客戶端提前加載了所有的信息。
Citigroup is not the only financial institution testing out cardless cash machines - JP Morgan Chase and Bank of America are working on similar technology.
花旗銀行并非唯一一個測試無卡取款機的金融機構(gòu)。摩根大通（JP Morgan Chase）和美國銀行（Bank of America）也在研發(fā)類似的技術(shù)。
The moves comes in response to US credit scoring firm FICO announcing that in May this year the number of attacks on debit cards used at ATMs had reached its highest level in 20 years.
今年5月，美國信用評分公司FICO宣布在自動取款機上使用的借貸卡遭到攻擊的數(shù)量創(chuàng)20年新高，各個銀行的舉措旨在改善此現(xiàn)狀。
Vocabulary
retinal：視網(wǎng)膜的

preliminary：初步的
head office：(銀行的)總行
touchpad：觸摸板
小測試：吃飯類型揭露性格 你是哪一種？
The Slow Eater
慢食者
After everyone else has finished their meal, you'll find this person plodding along, eating one little bite at a time. When sitting down at the table, the slow eater takes his or her sweet time -- and is always the last person to finish the meal.
大家都吃完飯了，你會發(fā)覺這人還在慢吞吞地進食，每次就吃一小口。慢食者坐下吃飯時，盡享美好時光——也總是最后一個吃完的人。
Slow eaters are usually people who like to be in control and know how to appreciate life. They also tend to be confident and even-keeled. There are some real health perks to being a slow eater. Slow eating has been shown to be associated with decreased energy intake, increased satiety, and higher pleasantness ratings of meals.
慢食者通常喜歡把控，也知道如何感激生活。他們通常自信滿滿、四平八穩(wěn)。當(dāng)個慢食者真真切切有益健康。據(jù)悉，慢食者能量攝入少、更容易滿足，對菜肴評價也更高。
The Fast Eater
快食者
There's a good chance you or someone else in your family fits the description of the fast eater -- and if you grew up with a fast eater, you probably developed a habit of fighting for seconds. This person tends to barrel through meals, cleaning the plate before the rest of the table has finished even half of their meal.
很有可能在你家，你自己或者其他人就符合快食者的形象描述——而且，要是你和一個快食者一起長大，你估計已經(jīng)養(yǎng)成了吃飯爭分奪秒的習(xí)慣。這個人通常就餐時囫圇吞棗、匆匆下飯，同桌人飲食飯菜一半還沒吃完，他就已經(jīng)凈盤了。
Away from the table, fast eaters tend to be ambitious, goal-oriented and open to new experiences, but they may also have a tendency to be impatient.
餐桌之外，快食者更有可能雄心勃勃，目標(biāo)明確，樂于經(jīng)歷新事物，但他們也通常容易急不可耐。
The Adventurer
冒險者
The adventurous eater is always looking for the next gastronomic adventure. When it comes to food -- and probably other areas of life -- this person is a thrill-seeker and a risk-taker.
冒險型食客總是在尋求下一場美食歷險。論及食物，或者生活中其他領(lǐng)域，這樣的人尋求刺激、承擔(dān)風(fēng)險。
Being an adventurous eater shows one's openness to trying new things outside of one's comfort zone.
當(dāng)個冒險食客，顯示出一個人樂于嘗試新事物，敢于邁出自己的舒適地帶。
The Picky Eater
挑食者
This person may never have grown out of their childhood likes and dislikes, or the tendency to turn up his or her nose at an unfamiliar cuisine. This eater can often be found asking a waiter if the dish can be served without sauce or with dressing on the side.
這類人或許從來就沒有走出孩童時代的喜好，容易對不熟悉的.菜肴嗤之以鼻。常常會看見這樣的食客問服務(wù)員這菜可不可以不加醬料就端上來，或者把調(diào)味料加在一邊。
Research on 'food neophobia' -- the reluctance to try new foods -- shows that it is related to certain personality traits, including sensation seeking, anxiety, and neuroticism. Those high in food neophobia appear to associate many avoided foods with a sense of disgust.
“新食物恐懼癥”——即不樂意嘗試新食物是研究發(fā)現(xiàn)：這和特定的性格特征有關(guān)，如尋求感官刺激、易焦慮和神經(jīng)過敏等。新食物恐懼癥高發(fā)人群易于把規(guī)避的食物和嫌惡聯(lián)系在一起。
The Isolationist
孤立主義食客
The isolationist, one of the more unusual eating types, approaches the plate methodically, eating one food item in its entirety before moving on to the next.
孤立主義者是更為鮮見的飲食類型，有條不紊地進食，完全吃完一種食物才接著吃下一種。
This behavior conveys a task-oriented personality versus a multi-tasking individual. Also, it conveys a disciplined and border-line stubborn tendency to complete one task before moving on to another.
這種行為習(xí)慣體現(xiàn)了任務(wù)為導(dǎo)向的性格，而非多任務(wù)作業(yè)的個體性格。此外，這體現(xiàn)出紀(jì)律嚴(yán)明、界限分明、執(zhí)拗固執(zhí)的行為趨向，得完成了一項任務(wù)后才能繼續(xù)下一項任務(wù)。

邊開車邊充電？英國將測試電動車無線充電公路
When the Roman poet Catullus wrote about devouring the road, he meant it as a metaphor for journeying. The prospect of physically extracting energy from the roadway may just become a reality, though, if the U.K. government pulls off the test run of a promising new tool.
古羅馬詩人卡圖盧斯（Catullus）曾在詩中寫下“吞食道路”，作為旅行的隱喻。不過，如果英國政府對一項前景廣闊的新工具的試運行成功的話，從公路汲取能量的想法或?qū)⒊蔀楝F(xiàn)實。
Off-road trials of “dynamic wireless power transfer” technology are expected to start later this year and run for 18 months, Highways England and Transport Minister Andrew Jones announced. The government will install the devices under test roads and in vehicles, and determine if the charging could work on Britain’s busiest roadways. Mobile charging would solve one of the biggest hurdles to electric vehicle use — staying charged on long drives.
英格蘭公路公司（Highways England）和英國交通部長安德魯瓊斯（Andrew Jones）近日宣布，“動態(tài)無線電力輸送”技術(shù)的越野試驗預(yù)計在今年晚些時候開始，測試期為18個月。政府將在測試段公路路面下和測試車輛上安裝相應(yīng)設(shè)備，以確定在英國最繁忙的路面上能否獲得預(yù)期的充電效果。移動充電將消除電動車輛普及的最大障礙之一，就是在長距離駕駛時保持電量充足的問題。
The U.K. has already tested a bunch of different approaches to this technology and identified versions that work and are ready to manufacture. In basic terms, the system has power lines connected to coils under the surface of a road, which then transmit the electricity through the air to a receiver coil in a car. Simply driving down the stretch of road in a properly-equipped electric or hybrid-electric vehicle will power up the batteries.
英國政府已經(jīng)測試了應(yīng)用該技術(shù)的不同辦法，確定了其中行得通的方案，準(zhǔn)備投入生產(chǎn)。簡單地講，這個系統(tǒng)將輸電線和路面下的線圈相連接，通過空氣將電能傳輸給汽車?yán)锩娴慕邮站�圈。安裝了相應(yīng)設(shè)備的電動車或混合動力車只需在這種路面上行駛便可為電池充電。
The power transfer could potentially work for all types of vehicles, the report notes, and since it goes under the road, it won’t require building any contraptions above ground that could increase risks of collision or electric shock. The wireless transfer is less cluttered and invasive than the overhead cables used for city trains, trolleys, and a prototype zero-emission highway in L.A.
報告中指出，這項電力輸送技術(shù)有可能適用于各種類型的交通工具，因為它是安裝在地下的，無需在地面建設(shè)設(shè)施，這也就減少了碰撞和電擊的風(fēng)險。比起城鐵、有軌電車以及洛杉磯的零排放高速公路原型使用的接觸網(wǎng)，這種無線傳輸更加整潔與安全。
If this works for the highways of Britain, it just might change the game for long-distance EV travel. A full charge of BMW’s i3, for instance, lasts 81 miles; it’s 84 miles for the Nissan Leaf and 38 miles gas free for the Chevy Volt. Those ranges are enough to cover most daily commutes, but insufficient for long road trips. Stopping for hours to charge up on the side of a highway isn’t going to make you feel much better about saving the earth. Picking up a charge without stopping, though, is one of the cooler things you could ask for from automotive refueling practices.
如果這一技術(shù)在英國的公路上得以實施，或?qū)⒏淖冸妱悠嚨拈L途旅行。比如，一輛充滿電的寶馬i3可以跑81英里，日產(chǎn)聆風(fēng)（Nissan Leaf）可以跑84英里，雪佛蘭伏特（Chevy Volt）不用汽油能跑38英里。以上這些距離足以應(yīng)付多數(shù)日常通勤，但長距離駕車旅行恐怕就不行了。為了充電停在公路邊上好幾小時，即便是節(jié)約了能源也并不會令你感到多好過。不過，說到給汽車充電這件事，無需停車即可充電是你能期待的最酷的事情之一。
Charging roads could pair well with another developing technology: street surfaces that generate their own power with solar panels. The Dutch SolaRoad bike path does that for a few hundred feet; in the U.S., Solar Roadways technology is planning for tests in sidewalks and parking lots in Idaho. Perhaps the smart roads of the future will not just make their own energy from the sun but transmit it wirelessly to a zippy fleet of EVs.
充電公路可以與另一項開發(fā)中的技術(shù)實現(xiàn)很好的配合，即通過太陽能面板產(chǎn)生能量的路面。荷蘭有一條幾百英尺長的太陽能自行車道使用了該技術(shù)。在美國，太陽能公路技術(shù)計劃在愛達荷州的人行道和停車場進行測試�；蛟S在未來智能公路不僅可以轉(zhuǎn)化太陽能，還可以將電力無線傳輸給一輛輛電動汽車。
