Facial recognition technology (人脸识别技术) is widely used today. For example, police use it to search for bad guys. It's also used to unlock phones or doors.
Now, a similar technology,known as facial detection(探测),is entering a new field:the business of advertising(广告).
Such systems are going through tests in a small number of stores.One facial detection system can judge a person's "happiness" or "fear" level. That helps businesses see how people feel as they look at products or advertisements in the store. Another system can detect whether someone is wearing eyeglasses.If so,sores can send advertisements for new glasses to him.
Facial detection technology is also placed inside some large advertising boards.Cameras in those boards can detect information like people's ages and five levels of feelings﹣from "very happy" to "very unhappy".
Supporters of the technology say it could improve buyers' experience by showing products they might like or by offering them products at lower prices.
Some are against the idea of using such systems.Pam Dixon,the head of a privacy(隐私)group,is one of them. She thinks__▲__. For example, a business could raise the price of a product according to a person's age and feelings.
However, one store testing the technology explained they wouldn't store people's information like names or ages. And the advertising board system maker said it didn't keep any personal information or record any videos.

Last year, I went to Italy as an exchange student. Before leaving,I asked my mother what gifts I should take to the teachers and the students there. Mom said that the Chinese fan was a good choice,for China is praised as"the Fan Kingdom".I couldn't agree more,because it is more than a tool for cooling. It's also an important part of Chinese culture.
I went shopping and bought three kinds of Chinese fans. The first kind was the feather (羽毛)fan for the teachers, which was made of bird feathers. It was the symbol of Zhuge Liang, a very smart man in ancient China. The fans I bought for the girls were silk fans. They were also called "round silk fans". Fans of this kind were made of silk with paintings of beautiful women, birds or flowers. They were very popular with women of all ages. As for the boys, I picked the folding fans from Rongchang , a place in the west of Chongqing. The folding fans were made of paper and bamboo and there were great paintings and calligraphy (书法) on them.
At the welcome party in Italy ,my new teachers and classmates were all excited to get the wonderful fans. And they were even more excited after learning about the stories and culture behind them.
