Future or Fantasy
What do you think the world will be in the future
a voyage to the moon
move to other planets
robot waiter
pilotless automobile
Before you watch
While you watch
Task 1 Watch and Answer
What predictions about the future were made Were they correct
Correct predictions: flying machines, organ transplantation, “perpetual light” , the atom bomb, space stations would broadcast television signals all over the globe
Incorrect predictions: a world market for maybe five computers, nuclear-powered vacuum cleaners
What predictions about the future were made Were they correct
Check your answers.
Flying machines
Perpetual light
Organ transplantation
The atom bomb
Space stations broadcasting television signals
A world market for maybe five computers
Nuclear-powered vacuum cleaners
Not all predictions have turned out to be quite so accurate. These two haven’t come true.
Task 2 Watch and Think
What is your understanding of “the future has unlimited possibilities”
Something unimaginable will happen in the future.
Answers may vary.
Task 1 Read the passage carefully.
Future or Fantasy
Not so very long ago, the idea of flying across the Atlantic Ocean in just a few hours would have been pure fantasy. The American aviator Orville Wright even declared in 1908 that “No flying machine will ever fly from New York to Paris...”Yet，today, we think little of hopping on a plane to take such a journey.
Looking back at some of the predictions throughout history, what is perhaps most remarkable is that they were made decades or even centuries before becoming reality.
After you watch
More than 300 years ago, the world’s first scientific body, the Royal Society, was founded in London. Its motto Nullius in verba, meaning “take nobody’s word for it”， reflected its founders’ spirit of investigation—a spirit that led them to predict flying machines, organ transplantation and “perpetual light” with extraordinary accuracy.
But it’s not only scientists who have looked into the future. Predictions have also been made by writers. At the start of the twentieth century, H．G. Wells predicted the invention of the atom bomb in his novel The World Set Free. And in the 1940s, author Arthur C．Clarke proposed that space stations would one day broadcast television signals all over the globe.
Not all predictions, however, have turned out to be quite so accurate. Thomas Watson, chairman of IBM, was quoted as saying in 1943 that “there is a world market for maybe five computers”．As for the 1955 prediction in The New York Times that “nuclear-powered vacuum cleaners will probably be a reality in 10 years” —well, even today that sounds rather a lot like science fiction.
Correct and incorrect, the great number of insights into the unknown indicates that the future has unlimited possibilities. Who knows what we will be able to create tomorrow Only time will tell.
Task 2 Look at the pictures and answer the questions.
1. Have you watched any of these films
2. What stories do they tell about the future of our world
Interstellar 《星际穿越》
Avatar 《阿凡达》
Ready Player One 《头号玩家》

Earth is coming to an end through disasters, famines and droughts. A team of astronauts board a spaceship, travelling through a newly discovered wormhole to find another planet that may have the right environment for humans to settle.
1. famine [ f m n] n.饥荒
2. drought [dra t] n.旱灾
3. wormhole [ w m h l] n.虫洞(宇宙中连接两个不同时空的假设隧道)；虫眼；蛀孔；蛀洞
Interstellar 《星际穿越》
This film is set in the 22nd century. Earth is suffering a severe energy crisis. Scientists have found another planet called Pandora, which is inhabited by the Na'vi. It is rich in natural resources, yet its atmosphere is poisonous to humans. To explore Pandora and exploit its resources, scientists use a new technology, creating “avatars” operated by genetically matched humans.

1. harsh adj.粗糙的
2. virtual reality 虚拟现实
In this film, humans abandon Earth because there is too much rubbish on it, leaving behind some robots to do the cleaning up. Over time, the robots break down one by one, until WALL· E is the only robot left working on Earth. One day, he meets another robot from space which has returned to Earth. In the end, they find a way to save the planet.
1. abandon vt. 抛弃
2. rubbish n. 垃圾
3. break down (机器或车辆）出故障；坏掉；被搞垮；垮掉；使分解
