二、阅读理解(B篇)(难度:★★★★)
What will our life be like in 50 years No one knows the answer, but we are sure that it will be very different from the life today. My sister Jill White makes some predictions. Here are some of her ideas.
First, people will have less work to do, and robots will do most work. People will use robots to make cars, do the housework, look after sick people and teach students. People will spend most of their time playing sports and traveling, so they will become stronger and healthier, and they will live to be about 200 years old.
Second, cars will become very small and computers will control (控制)their speed (速度), so there will be fewer accidents (事故)on the road.Planes will be very popular and most people would like to take them to travel.
Third, people will be able to live in the sea, on the moon or on Mars. The earth won' t be crowded or noisy, so there will be much space for people to plant trees. There will be less pollution, and the air will become much fresher.
Finally, water shortage will become one of the most serious problems. If people don' t save water now, we will have no water to drink in 50 years.

What do you think the future will be like No one knows what will happen in the future. Will people have robots in their homes Will people live in the sea Will people be able to go back to the old days Won' t kids go to school and will they just study at home on computers Maybe!
Life is full of many beautiful times, but you may easily forget some of them. Now a man has a way to remember them.
Lucas Rizzotto from the US invented (发明) a personal time machine. The machine lets him relive (再体验) his past. To invent the time machine, Rizzotto used a pair of glasses with a camera (摄影机) inside.
He wore them for one year and the glasses shot many 3D videos of his everyday life during the year. Those videos are about tasting food, climbing trees, dancing, traveling and so on.
“I think the machine is really cool. It' s really hard to describe the feeling of reliving my own past. It doesn' t feel like watching a video,” Rizzotto says. “Although this time machine can' t really travel through time, it makes me look at myself in a new way.”
