Life in the future will be different from life today. Between then and now many changes will happen. But what will the changes be?
The population(人口)is growing fast. There will be many people in the world and most of them will live longer than people live now.
Computers will be much smaller and more useful, and there will be at least(至少)one in every room. And computer studies will be one of the important subjects in schools then. People will work fewer hours than they do now and they will have more free time for sports, watching TV and travel. Traveling will be much cheaper and easier. And many more people will go to other countries for holidays.
There will be changes in our food, too. More land will be used for building new towns and houses for all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep, so meat will be more expensive. Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead they will eat more fruit and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier. Work in the future will be different, too. Robots will do dangerous and hard work. Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do.
This will be a problem.

【推荐1】Some people don’t like storms, but I think they are very exciting.
There are often storms at the end of a hot summer day. The clouds are small and white at first.
However, they get bigger and bigger until they make one large black cloud. The sky gets dark and it starts to rain hard. And then the streets are like swimming pools. There is a flash of bright light in the sky and then, after a few seconds, you can hear the loud “bang” of thunder.
Light travels very fast, so we always see the lightning (闪电) before we hear the thunder. If the clouds are one kilometer away, you can count to three, between the lightning and the thunder.
Lightning is very beautiful but it can also be dangerous. Lightning is electricity (电流) “jumping” to the ground from a cloud. It usually hits tall things, so if you are outside when there is thunder and lightning, don’t stand under a tree or tall building. You’d better stay in a car.
1. The streets are like swimming pools because ________.A.the cloud is large and dark | B.the sky gets dark |
C.it rains hard | D.it’s a hot summer day |
A.three | B.six | C.nine | D.twelve |

C.Stand under tall things. | D.Stay in a car. |
