The Future Library is a project by the artist Katie Paterson. It began with the cutting down of trees in a forest north of Oslo, Norway, in 2014. The Future Library Trust ___________wood from these trees to build a special room—the Silent Room in the Oslo Public Library. In place of the trees that had been cleared, 1,00 new trees were planted. Every year from 2014 until 2114, a different popular author ___________________one original story, and the librarians ____________________all the stories in the Silent Room, where visitors can look at them but not read them. In 2114, the organisers ___________________________the 1,000 trees that were planted back in 2014. They will then use the wood for publishing the 100 books in the Silent Room. So, in 2114, people _____________________books that were made from trees that are growing right now.

Dear Past Bingbing,
Hi! I'm Bingbing, your future self! I know that you are really worried about your future career, so I wanted to write this letter to put your mind at rest.
I'm sorry to say that you won’t become a pilot as you wanted. In the future, large passenger airplanes will fly themselves and won't need pilots. But there is a big problem in the future that you don't have now: no one uses cars anymore—they use personal jet packs. As you can imagine, the skies over the city get pretty busy! Someone needs to control all these people so they don't have accidents. And that's what you do: you're a jet pack air traffic controller!
One really good point about your job is that you don‘t have to leave home. Instead, you’ll use a virtual reality headset and microphone to do your job while you are sitting on the sofa drinking tea. But you will have to work on your people skills, as you will be talking to people all day. The bad point Too many jet packs in the sky! Sometimes it can be kind of tense, and some people don't like to obey the rules or be told what to do.
All in all I think you’ll be happy with this job. But of course you will, because you're me! Stop worrying! Your future is going to be great. Trust me.
Best regards,
Future Bingbing
