C
Many scientists think that life may be very different by 2050.
First of all, TV might not be used by 2050. People will choose music, films, programs and newspapers on the computer. And they can smell(闻) and touch things on the Internet. That sounds really interesting.
Water pollution(污染) will become the most serious problem by 2050. Human beings will need more water than today. There will be less fresh water on the earth.
Cars will not only run on the land but also fly in the air by 2050. That can help to alleviate the heavy traffic. There won’t be any accidents, because computers will control the traffic. What’s more, the speed of the plane will be much faster. It’ll take only 2 hours for people to fly from Los Angeles to Tokyo.
Robots will become very popular by 2050, because they don’t ask for money and can work 24 hours a day. We’ll see robots everywhere—factories, schools, hospitals, shops and homes.
By 2050, medicine will be improved a lot. Cancer and AIDs won’t be serious diseases.

My parents and I went to visit the Great Wall yesterday. It was sunny. We all had a good time there! The Great Wall is very beautiful! It looks like a big dragon. I met a lot of foreigners there! They liked the Great Wall very much. They thought Chinese people in ancient times were great, and the Great Wall was a great present for the whole world. We talked about the history of the Great Wall together. That’s a lot of fun. But it’s a pity that many people wrote their names and some words on the wall. I felt sad about that. As we know, the Great Wall is a symbol of the Chinese nation. We should protect it.

How to Save the Water
Water is important to all living things. All animals and plants need water. Without water, there will be no life on the earth. So we should do our best to save and protect our water. We must turn off the tap after we use it. We must save every drop of water in everyday life and tell our parents and friends about it. I think it’s our duty to save water.
