It was quite late last night. While I was reading a newspaper alone in my    1    , a young man came to my house. He said that he was a friend of my brother’s and wanted to talk     2     him. I didn’t know if my brother had such a friend,     3     I let him in.

As we talked, I found that he knew     4     about my brother. After a while my brother came back home. The young man was so surprised that he didn’t know    5     to do. We caught the man and called the police at the same time.

The Smiths decided to have a yard sale     1     money for a children's home.Tom was quite sad at     2    .He found a lot of toys he doesn't play with     3    ,but he still wants to keep them.     4    ,he's owned a toy horse since his     5     birthday,and he     6     with it almost every week until about eight.And he didn't want to lose the toy monkey,     7    .When he was young,he would never go to bed     8     it.Jane was more     9    ,although she also felt sad to part with certain toys.As for Mr.Smith,he didn't want to give up his football shirts,     10     he hasn't played football for a while now.

It’s the year 2050 now. Life is very different from life in 2007. There are more people and cars in the world. It’s more     1    for people to find a job. And it’s also more difficult for people to ride in the streets. Most people live     2     because they eat healthier food. Nobody eats meat very often    3     more and more people know it’s important to have a healthy diet. They eat more     4     and fruit. They don’t have to work long hours. They have more free time for sports and     5    for a trip. They can also surf the Internet. Every family has more than one computer.

What will     1     be like in 200 years? Teachers won't     2     on the blackboard with     3     in the future. Students won't do their homework on     4    , and we won't draw a line with a     5    . At that time, every student will study     6     the computers. And at the weekend, students can go cycling with their friends—robots. That would be very     7    . There will be many     8     on the farms, and they do lots of work. What about the climate then? There won't be much     9    . That     10     bring people many problems.

What will people look like in the future? Someone made a prediction. In the future, people         1     larger heads and bigger eyes. The larger heads will be able to store larger   brains (脑). People will become smarter. Why will people have.    2     eyes? That’s because people may go and live on other     3     . They may be farther   from the sun than the Earth is. Then people will need bigger eyes to see    4     in the darker environment.     5    UV radiations (紫外线) are stronger on other planets than on the Earth, people’s skin (皮肤) won’t be so white as before. What’s more, people will not need to open their mouths to speak. They will communicate by chips in their heads.
