What will life be like in 2050
Life will probably be
very different in 2050 in all the fields, from entertainment to technology.
TV channels will
disappear in 2050. People will choose a programme from a "menu" and a
computer will send the programme directly to the television.
Water wilt become one of our most serious
problems. Today in many places, agriculture is developing and people are
growing fruit and vegetables to export(出口). This needs a lot of water. Need for water will increase ten times
between now and 2050 and there will be serious shortages(短缺).
In transportation,
computers will control the speed of the ears and there won't be any accidents.
Today, many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are. By
2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to where you want to go.
Besides, space planes will take people halfway around the world in two hours.
Nowadays, the United States Shuttle can go into space and land on Earth again.
By 2050, space planes will fly all over the world and people will fly from Los
Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours.
In the field of
technology, robots will replace people in many fields. Today many factories
have already used robots. Big companies prefer robots because they do not ask
for pay rises or go on strikes, and they work 24 hours a day. By 2050, we will
see robots everywhere—in factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and
homes.

19．阅读理解
Have you ever thought
about what our food will be like in the future As the population is growing
fast, there must be changes in our food.
More land will be used
for building houses for people. Then there will be less space for cattle and chickens,
so meat will be more expensive. Instead, people will eat more fruit and
vegetables.
Scientists are always
trying out new ways of growing food. Only one third of the Earth's area is land
and the rest is sea, so some think maybe we can get more food from the sea.
Besides, though rice
supports more than half of the world's population, it needs a lot of water to grow.
Scientists predict(预测) the climate
will get drier during the next century. Therefore, it might be impossible to
grow rice in the future. Some farmers are experimenting with new crops. Farmers
like to grow beans because they don't need much water, and beans also improve
the quality of the soil. The soybean (黄豆) makes a good
substitute(替代品) for rice and meat.
（1）Why won't some people eat meat every day in the future according to the passage
A．Because meat makes people fat.
B．Because meat may be more expensive.
C．Because people want to be healthier.
D．Because people want to eat more vegetables.
（2）Where can we get more food according to the passage
A．From the sea. B．From the land.
C．From the rivers. D．From other planets.
（3）Why might it be impossible to grow rice in the future according to the passage
A．Because growing rice is hard work.
B．Because people will eat less rice.
C． Because rice needs much water to grow.
D．Because it takes too much time to grow rice.
（4）Which of the following about beans is NOT true
A．Beans may be popular for farmers to grow.
B．Beans need as much water as rice to grow.
C．Beans improve the quality of the soil.
D．Beans can take the place of rice and meat.

Have you ever thought
about what our food will be like in the future As the population is growing
fast, there must be changes in our food.
More land will be used
for building houses for people. Then there will be less space for cattle and chickens,
so meat will be more expensive. Instead, people will eat more fruit and
vegetables.
Scientists are always
trying out new ways of growing food. Only one third of the Earth's area is land
and the rest is sea, so some think maybe we can get more food from the sea.
Besides, though rice
supports more than half of the world's population, it needs a lot of water to grow.
Scientists predict(预测) the climate
will get drier during the next century. Therefore, it might be impossible to
grow rice in the future. Some farmers are experimenting with new crops. Farmers
like to grow beans because they don't need much water, and beans also improve
the quality of the soil. The soybean (黄豆) makes a good
substitute(替代品) for rice and meat.
