Life in the future
①What will life be like in the future? How will things change? Here are some ideas.
②In the future, a change of weather won’t mean a change of clothes. We’ll wear a new kind of clothes. They’ll be warm when we’re cold, and cool when we’re hot.
③There’ll be no more light rain and cold wind in spring. The weather will be quite warm or even hot all year, with heavy rain and wind. The sea level will rise as well.
④We won’t travel by bus or bike any more. Every family will have a small plane. No more expensive cars—it’ll be cheap to travel everywhere by plane, not only over land, but also over the sea or even into space. Maybe there’ll be traffic jams in the air.
⑤Do you like long holidays? Well, you’re going to like the future because smart robots will do all the heavy and difficult jobs. They will lift heavy things with bionic arms(仿生手臂), fix tiny machines with micro-tools. We’ll only do light and easy work. Working hours will be short so people will have long holidays.
A. Match the pictures with the paragraphs ②-⑤.

B. Complete the table with the information from the passage.
| Topic | Idea |
| --- | --- |
| Clothes | We’ll wear a 1. kind of clothes. |
| 2. | It will be quite 3. or even 4. all year. |
| Travel | Every family will have a small 5. . |
