What picture do you have of the future? Will life in the future be better, worse or the same as now? What do you hope about the future?

People predict that life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all, it seems that there won’t be TV channels (频道). At that time, people will pick up a program from a “menu” and a computer will send the program to the TV set at once. By 2050, music, films, programs, newspapers and books will come to us by computers.

In that time, water will become one of our most serious problems. In many places, farmers are in great need of water to grow fruit and vegetables.

In transportation, cars will run on new, clean fuels and they will go very fast. There won’t be any accidents because of robots. We will see robots everywhere. And space planes will take people around the world in two hours.

By 2050, we will be able to help blind and deaf people see again and hear again. At that time, people’s life will become better and better.
