32、ants to replace PIN codes with biometric scanners （生物识别扫描仪） that could identify customers using only their eyes. Customers would use a smart phone app to key in the amount they want to draw out ahead of time. As they approached the ATM, the app would link up to the machine and use retinal scanning t

33、o confirm the customer s identity. The ATM would then release the cash, as long as the scanner recognizes the individual.Citigroup said the retinal scans would take 15 seconds to complete compared to 45 seconds for traditional transactions （交易）.It would, they claim, be more secure and would mean tha

34、t cards could never be skimmed at an ATM again.The Wall St Journal reported that Citigroup has not set a date for when the retinal scanners would be introduced.

Instead

41、of the students who wake up late, party all the time, and study only before exams, many colleges are full of students with pressing schedules of not just classes and activities, but real jobs, too.This isn t a temporary phenomenon. The share of working students has been on the rise since the 1970s,

42、and one-fifth of students work year round. About one-quarter of those who work while attending school have both a full-course load and a full-time job.

46、tending classes.There is little reward for attending but not finishing college. Students who wind up leaving school because of difficulty in managing work and class are likely to find themselves stuck in some of the same jobs they might have gotten if they hadn t gone at all. The difficulty of worki

47、ng too much while in school can create a cycle that pushes students further into debt without receiving any of the financial or career benefits.32.
