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.
天气的变化不一定意味着得更换衣服。
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 不仅可以在陆地上空飞行
over the sea or even into 而且可以飞到海上甚至
space. Maybe there’ll be 进入太空。
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.
1. What will life be like in the future 将来的生活会是什么样子？
★What will…be like... 用以询问“……将会是什么样子？”。What be...like 还可以用于询问某人的性格特点。如：
What is he like 他的性格怎么样？
He is very kind and easy-going.
他人很好，也很随和。
2. 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. 不再有昂贵的汽车，乘飞机到处旅行将会变得便宜，不仅仅是在陆地上，还可以在水上或甚至在太空。
★⑴句型结构：it is + adj.+ to do sth，it是形式主语，真正的主语为动词不定式后置。如：
It was wrong for you not to help her.
你当时不帮助她是错误的。(it代替不定式短语）
⑵not only...but also表示“不仅……而且……”，用于连接两个并列的成分，等同于not only...but....as well. 如：
She not only plays well, but also writes music.
⑶若连接两个成分作主语，其谓语通常与靠近的主语保持一致。如：
Not only you but also he has to leave. 不但你而且他也得离开。
3. The sea level will rise as well. 海平面也会升高。
★rise升起，上升，是一个不及物动词。如：
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
太阳从东边升起，西边落下。
★as well意为“也；又”，多位于句尾，和too是同义表达。also和either也表示“也”，但also位于肯定句句中，either用于否定句句尾。如：
The little girl sings, and plays the piano as well.
这个小女孩既会唱歌，又会跳舞。
Listen to the tape and follow it.
Then read it together.
Practice
A change of weather won’t mean a change of clothes.
Machines and robots will do the heavy and difficult jobs.
Every family will have a small plane .
The weather will get hot.
so
We’ll wear a new kind of clothes.
We’ll have more time.
We’ll travel everywhere
We won’t need warm clothes.
5 Complete the passage with the correct
form of the words from the box.

6 Match the words with their opposites. Use the
passage in Activity 2 to help you.

— Yes, but I think there will be traffic
jams in the air.
7 Work in pairs. Talk about life in the future.

8 Look at the sentences.
Working hours will be short. People will have long holidays.

Now complete the sentences with so.

2. The weather will get hot so…

合作探究：
1. be like “像……一样”，指人的时候多用于问性格如何。如：
你的语文老师是什么样子的 What your Chinese teacher
如果要问人的外貌长相则要用“ ”。如：
你朋友长什么样子的？
What your friend She’s tall and thin in the photo.
2. come true意为“ ”。后面不能跟宾语。如：
努力学习，你的梦想就会成真。
Work hard, and your dream will .
3. not only ….but also…，意为“ ”。当连接两个并列主语时，谓语动词的单复数采取“ 原则”即与 后面的主语保持人称和数的一致。如：
不但他而且我也喜欢看书。
Not only he but also I reading books.
= Not only I but also he reading books.
4. It is+形容词+(for sb.)+to do sth. “做某事对某人来说是……的”。
对我来说学好数学太难了。
It is difficult for me maths well .
