The City Life in the Future
What will happen in our city in the future? No one knows for sure. I think our city life will be more convenient and interesting. Perhaps people will go to work by plane, so there will be fewer traffic jams. Perhaps there will be more robots doing housework in people’s homes and doing other work in offices and factories. Then people will have more free time to enjoy their lives. They will travel to other planets in spacecraft, or spend their holidays under the sea. It will be interesting to do these things, so I am looking forward to the life in the future.
