You wait in a long queue in the supermarket, but when it’s finally your turn to pay, you can’t find enough money in your purse. 1. While you are bending down to look for them, the people behind you are getting angry. The cashier is pounding her fingers impatiently on the counter.

2. But the good news is: scientists have thought of a way to make queues shorter and paying for things easier. They have invented an eye scanner. In the future, when you pay for food at the supermarket, an eye scanner will take a picture of your eyes and a computer will identify you. 3.

Students at Venerable Bede School, England, have already got an eye scanner in their cafeteria. After the students choose the food they want, the scanner looks for their information and sends a list of the food to their parents. 4. Also, parents pay for the meals at the end of the week, so the students don’t have to take money to school and wait in long queues to pay for their lunch.

If all shops had eye scanners, shopping would be easier. 5. So, it seems that it will be a while before most of us get our eyes scanned at the cashier.

A. Sometimes shopping can be unpleasant.

B. You take out your credit cards, but they fall on the floor.

C. If students aren’t eating a healthy diet, their parents will know.

D. Stores are trying several new ways to get shoppers to spend more.

E. Parents are urging the government to introduce better security safeguards.

F. However, eye scanners are very expensive and many shops can’t afford them.

G. As soon as the machine finds your information, it will send it to your bank which pays for your food automatically.

“Thank you” is the most under-appreciated and under-used phrase on the planet. It is appropriate in nearly any situation.1.Let’s cover some common situations where we say all sorts of things, but should say “thank you” instead.

1. When you are receiving praise.

We often ruin praise by acting overly humble(謙遜的). The problem is that by devaluing the praise, you don’t acknowledge the person who was nice enough to say something.2.

2. When you are running late.

It is stressful for the person who is running late and it is disrespectful to the person who is waiting. It might seem strange to thank someone for dealing with your late arrival, but that’s exactly the correct response. Most people stand in the door and say “Sorry, I’m late.”3. Saying “Thank you” turns the table and acknowledges the sacrifice the other person made by waiting.

3. When you’re comforting someone.

When someone comes to you with the bad news, it can be awkward. You want to be a good friend, but most people don’t know what to say. What we fail to realize is that it doesn’t matter if you don’t know what to say.4.

4. When you are receiving helpful feedback(反饋）.

Feedback can be very helpful, but we rarely see it that way. Whether it is an unflattering performance review from your boss or an e-mail from an unhappy customer, the standard reaction is to get defensive(防御性的). 5.

A. Thank them for what they did despite your error.

B. You can win the argument in the way you live your life.

C. Besides, it is a better response than most of the things we say.

D. All you really need is to be present and thank them for trusting you.

E. The problem is this response still makes the situation embarrassing.

F. Simply saying “Thank you” fully acknowledges the person who made the promise.

G. That’s a shame because the correct response is to say “Thank you” and use it to improve.
