Time travel could result in
a paradox – an event that
contradicts itself. For example,
if a person travelled back
in time and prevented an
event, that event would never
have happened; there would
therefore be no reason for the
person to travel back in time to prevent it.

Discussion: Describe other planet’s future by using subject-verb agreement.
Here are some words for some planets:
Venus: 金星
Mercury: 水星
Mars: 火星
Jupiter: 木星
Saturn: 土星
I think it’s also fair to say that we can get our hopes upwhen it comes to finding cures for serious diseases, such as cancer. I reckon that nanorobots that can eliminate cancerous cells are just around the corner. Some of these ideas may sound far ahead of their time, but I’m
sure they’re bound to
happen sooner or later!
Besides time travel, we have much to look forward to in the future, thanks to advances in technology. One area that is likely to change dramatically within our lifetimes is medical care. Although I wouldn’t bank on patients feeling confident about seeing a robot doctor any time
soon, I’m sure that AI
doctors are on the horizon.
