Read the passage and choose the correct answer in each of the following questions.

1. Students in Rome, Georgia, can now pay for cafeteria food with a touch of the finger. The Rome City School District has a new, high-tech payment system that reads students' fingerprints instead of asking students to punch in codes or swipe their ID cards.

2. Before the new system, students often lost their lunch cards or forgot their codes. In addition, the cafeteria lines moved slowly, often cutting into their mealtimes. The new fingerprint scanner has speeded things up. “Our students have really enjoyed the new system,” Gayland Cooper, principal of Anna K. Davie Elementary School, told WR News. “When the lines move faster, the students have more time to enjoy their meal.”

3. Although fingerprints are an easy way to pay for lunch, some parents aren't happy with the new system. Some students don't use the fingerprint scanner because their parents don't like the idea that their children's fingerprints are being scanned daily. Cooper says that students still have the option of punching in their codes. He adds, however, that students' fingerprint information is secure.
