We use the Internet a lot every day. We learn English through online lessons. We watch online videos. We talk to friends through WeChat. But that is not all.
In the future, we are going to connect everything around us to the Internet, not only computers and smartphones. We might connect the refrigerator, the car, the house and even whole cities to the Internet. It is a big idea called the "Internet of Things"(IoT) or the "Internet of Everything".
How do we connect things to the Internet We do it by putting built-in sensors (内置传感器), chips and software(软件) into them.
In the world of IoT, we can "talk" to our car and house through the Internet. The car and house can also ''talk" to each other. It makes our life easier and helps us save money, time and energy.
IoT was a hot topic at the Second World Internet Conference. It took place in Wuzhen, Zhejiang, earlier last month. Experts said that in recent years, 30 to 50 billion things would connect to IoT.
Your house knows when you are at home and when you are not. So in the summer, it makes rooms cooler when you are home. And after you leave, it stops cooling down the rooms.
Water and gas pipes (天然气管道) can tell your town when there is a leak.
Your refrigerator can "remember" things, such as what you put in and pull out of it. So it can send you e-mails with dinner ideas. Or it will shop online for you when things run out.
You drive your car home. The car tells your house that you live five kilometers away. So the house turns on the lights and warms up.
You may fall asleep on the sofa while watching TV. Don't worry, your smartwatch can feel this. It will turn off your TV and lights for you.

What will our life be like in 50 years No one knows the answer exactly (确切地), but we are sure that it will be very different from the life today. My brother Jim Green makes some predictions. Here are some of his 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 people 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. So there will be fewer accidents 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 more 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, there will be water wars in 50 years.
