Picture this: You wake up in the morning. A soft light (灯光) turns on in your room. You go into the bathroom and the shower starts. The water is warm. After your shower, you go into the kitchen. Your favorite breakfast is already on the table. How are all these possible Welcome to our future houses.
Our houses in the future will be “smart”. Appliances (家用电器) will be able to talk with each other and with you. For example, your refrigerator (冰箱) will know what you have in it and tell you what dishes you can make with the food. When you need more food, your refrigerator will tell you to buy it. This will be possible thanks to information-storing tools (信息存储工具) called RFID chips. They can store the information about all the food in your refrigerator.
Our future houses will also be able to “think”. If you are tired of the color of your walls, you won't have to paint them again. The walls will be able to change colors because of a special kind of technology (科技)—OLED. In fact, OLED walls will be screens. A computer will join the walls and the other things, and this computer will “rule” your house. Your house will learn about your likes and dislike. It will then use that message to run the environment. It will also darken the windows at night and lighten them when it's time to wake up. What do you think of our future houses

C.The future. D.The color.
( )70.What can RFID chips do
A.Cook meals.

C.Store the information.
D.Clean the refrigerator.
( )71.Which of the following is TRUE about OLED walls
A.They will be screens.

One Possible Version:
My Future Life
In twenty years, I think I'll be a policeman. I will work in my hometown, because I love it and I want to protect it. Being a policeman will be dangerous, but it will also be meaningful. I'll do my best to help people who are in danger and make them feel safe. I will live in a small but comfortable apartment with my family. When I'm free, I will travel to other cities with my family. That's my dream life in the future. I hope it will come true.
