What will your future life look like? Let’s have     1     look.

In 3000, medical technology will be     2    (good) than ever. When you get up in the morning and look into the mirror, your face will be beautiful and young-looking. Many people at your age could live to be 120, and your parents will just have an anti-aging (抗衰老的)     3    (treat). All of you will look the same age!

Besides, “smart clothes” will contain special particles (粒子),     4     will be much smaller than the cells in your body. They can     5    (design) to change your clothes’ color or pattern. When you say to your shirt, “Turn red”, it will change from blue     6     red.

There will also be a great change in your house. If you get into the kitchen, you     7    (find) a special food machine that will tell you what your body needs and help you eat     8    (healthy).

In 3000, cars will drive     9    (they). You can just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way, it will be possible     10    (change) the color of cars at the flick of a switch.

Such “smart technology” will be all around you, and let’s look forward to it.

What will our cities be like in 2050? How much will artificial intelligence advance? Some scientists    1     (make) different predictions recently.

Joel E.Cohen from the The Rockfeller University says    2    is likely that by 2050 the majority of the people in the world will live in urban areas, and will have a    3    (significant) higher average age than people today. Cities will be    4    only realistic solution to housing a population that is expected to expand    5    9.7 billion by 2050.

And the technology will keep    6    (advance) rapidly. According to Bill Michell, the late director of MIT Media Lab’s Smart Cities research group, cities of the future won’t look like “some sort of science-fiction fantasy” or “Star Trek” ,but virtual reality will change    7    we live. Self-driving cars will make the roads    8    (secure), driving more efficient, and provide faster transport.

Charles Ebinger at the Brookings Institution thinks that by 2050 we will also have a so-called “smart grid” where all of our    9     (appliance) are linked directly to energy distribution(分布) systems,    10    (allow) for real-time pricing based on supply and demand. Such a technology would greatly benefit most people and reduced the consumption(消耗) of fossil fuel energy.
