A
Life in the year 2060 will be different from life today. Between then and now many changes will take place. But what will the changes be
The population is growing fast. There will be more people in the world and most of them will live longer than people live now.
Computers will be much smaller and more useful, and there will be at least one in every room. And computer science will be one of the important subjects in schools then. People will work fewer hours then they do now and they will have more free time for sports, watching TV and travel. Traveling will be much cheaper and easier. And many more people will go to other countries for holidays.
There will be changes in our food, too. More land will be used for building new towns and houses. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep, so meat will be more expensive. Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead they will eat more fruit and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier.
Work in the future will be different, too. Dangerous and hard work will be done by robots. Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a problem.

B
It seems that school children all over the world complain about their school food. Cherie Blair, the wife of former Prime Minister Tony Blair, said that she would prepare a packed lunch for her son if school dinners do not get better. So what do students of your age eat for lunch at school
Japan
Most high schools have canteens(餐饮部), which serve everything from noodles to rice, but not burgers and chips. Other children bring food from home such as cold rice balls, meat or fish, pickles (泡菜)and vegetables.
The United States
A typical menu from a US school is made up of a hamburger with fried potatoes, roast chicken, lettuce and pickles, fruit and cookies. School lunches must also provide at least one third of the daily dietary allowances(定量)of protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, calcium, and calories(卡路里).
Australia
Meat pies, sausage rolls and hot dogs are all traditional dishes in Australian school shops. But as the nation pays more attention to children’s health, healthier foods have started to find their way onto school menus.
Many schools have used a traffic light system. The sale of red-1abelled foods, including pastries, chocolate and soft drinks, is served only twice a week. Green-1abelled foods such as sushi, sandwiches, corn and watermelon, however, are served every day.
In some schools, students have a choice of up to 89 foods to choose from, including popcorn and rice.
South Africa
Most of South Africa’s schools do not serve meals at all. Classes end at 1:30 pm and students get their own lunches. Many students bring food from home, usually sandwiches.
Fast food and fried food sell the best among students, which has led to a rise in obesity among children. But as more people began to realize the fact that being too fat may cause different diseases, some schools in towns have led the way towards better nutrition(营养). Now students at these schools are provided with lunches of porridge with vegetables, such as cabbages, onions, beans, carrots and tomatoes.
( ) 5. Cherie Blair thought __________.
A. her son should enjoy his school dinners

A. All traditional dishes in Australian school shops are very healthy.
B. Australian schools have started to serve healthier foods to students.
C. There are a lot of traffic lights in most Australian schools.
D. Chocolate and watermelon are regarded as healthier foods in Australia.
( ) 8. What does the word “obesity” in the last paragraph probably mean

Do You Think You Will Have Your Own Robot
When we watch movies about the future, we sometimes see robots. They are usually just like human servants. They help with the housework and do jobs like working in dirty or dangerous places.
Today there are already robots working in factories. For example, they can help to build cars, and they do simple jobs over and over again. Fewer people will do such jobs in the future because they are boring, but robots will never get bored.
Scientists are now trying to make robots look like humans and do the same things as us. Some robots in Japan can even walk and dance. These kinds of robots are fun to watch. But scientist James White thinks that it will be difficult for a robot to do the same things as a person. For example, it's easy for children to wake up and know where they are. Mr. White thinks that robots won't be able to do this, but some scientists disagree. They think that robots will even be able to talk like humans in 25 to 50 years.
Some scientists believe that there will be more robots in the future. However, they agree it may take hundreds of years. New robots will have many different shapes. Some will look like humans, and others might look like snakes. If buildings fall down with people inside, snake robots will be able to help look for people under the buildings. That may not seem possible now, but computers and rockets seemed impossible 100 years ago. We never know what will happen in the future!,
