SMART HOMES TO MAKE LIFE EASIER
Have you ever forgotten to lock the door of your house Or, have you ever forgotten to 1. s off the TV or computer These kinds of things happen to us all the time, waste resources, and can sometimes lead to problems. However, in the not-too-distant future, we will be living in smart homes that will lock the door for us when we are away and remember to switch off the TV when we forget. These smart homes will keep us 2. s , save us energy, and provide 3. more comfortable environment to live in.
Intelligent Controls
Today, we have to use switches for our lights, knobs for our appliances, and remote controls for our TVs and air conditioners. In the future, we will be using advanced technology every day for automatic control of just about everything in our home. The future home will use integrated sensors to tell when you leave home each morning, and then go into an energy-efficient mode all by itself. You will no longer have to think about 4. （turn）switches on and off yourself. Your home will also learn your daily routine and 5. (prefer), so everything will be ready for you when you get home each evening. Your lights will come on the instant you enter the door along with your favourite music or TV programmes, and you will find your dinner already prepared for you. All controls will respond 6. voice commands, so if you want to change your routine, you just say aloud what you want and the home system will obey.
Regular Health Checks
In addition, your smart home will be 7. (monitor) your health for you every day. Your bed, for example, will record how well you sleep every night. It will also be checking your body weight. If you start to have sleep or weight problems, it will send a warning to your phone. It will also give you suggestions on a 8. (health) diet and how to sleep better. Smart toilets will be keeping constant track of your health as well. They can warn you early on if there is something 9. (normal) or if you have a critical illness, such as cancer, and 10. (potential) save your life.
No More Disasters
Smart homes will be able to prevent serious damage 11. accidents. For example, if a water pipe starts leaking, or if there is a short in the electrical wiring, your smart home will detect 12. and provide you with the relevant information. This way, you will be able to fix the problem 13. your home becomes flooded or catches fire.
This smart technology is not a fantasy. Many of these new innovations are already available and being used in some homes. In this sense, the home of tomorrow is already the home of today. Nevertheless, it will take some years before most new homes begin to use this new technology.

Should We Fight New Technology
This morning, I saw the shocking headline: “Passenger Dies When Car Crashes in Driverless Mode”. In the article, 1.______(vary) people said that the public should oppose the idea of 2.______(develop) driverless cars. They said that some advances in technology were 3.______（necessary) and could even be dangerous. Hence, we should cease accepting technology just because it is new. The newspaper reported that the car company had already apologised 4._____ the accident, but the families of the deceased said it was not enough. Nevertheless, the company still claimed that most people would be travelling in driverless cars one day soon.
On the one hand, there are many different groups of people around the world who live happily in the 5.______(absent) of new technology. Probably the most well-known are the Amish, a group of Christians living in rural America. They do not own or drive cars, watch TV, or use the Internet. They have lived mainly as farmers since the 18th century, and they will probably be living the same way in the distant future. They advocate a simple life with an 6.______ (emphasize) on hard work, family, and community. They think that is better than caring about 7. ______(luxury) or following the lives of the rich and famous. It could even be argued that the Amish's quality of life is better since they live in and appreciate the natural environment rather than living in large, polluted cities.
On the other hand, new technology has provided people everywhere with many benefits over the years. For example, the latest weather-tracking computer programmes give people lots of warnings about potential natural disasters, 8.______saves many lives. Moreover, the Internet has made it possible for friends and family to keep in touch easily even if they are on opposite sides of the world. It has also made finding opportunities in life much easier, as it allows people to make larger networks of friends through using social media.
Personally, I have benefited quite a lot from 9._______(technology) advances. I found my career as an Al designer through a social media network. My health monitor, which I wear all the time, has also helped me get into the best shape of my life. Of course, when new technology changes the way we live, it can be a 10._______(scare) prospect. Nevertheless, I will always look on the positive side of change and accept it rather than resist it.
