Life in the future
By Tony Smith
What will life be like in the future? How will things change? Here are some ideas. Which ones will come true?
A In 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.
B There’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.
C We 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.
D Do you like long holidays? Well, you’re going to like the future because machines and robots will do all the heavy and difficult jobs, and we’ll only do light and easy work. Working hours will be short so people will have long holidays.
