根据短文内容,完成下列表格,每空一词。

The home of the future won’t be completely different and we will be living in houses and flats as we do today. But people will want to shape their homes to match their dreams. No two homes will be the same. People will be able to buy “house materials” containing moveable walls, doors and windows. They will put together the different parts to create the home they want.

Many jobs that we do today will disappear, others will still be done but will change and new jobs will be created. Skilled workers such as builders, gardeners and electricians won’t disappear because machines can’t take the place of them. We will still have teachers because students need human contact. But they will be using modern technology in class more and students will be working more from home.

Space holidays will develop in the future, but these holidays won’t be for everyone because they won’t be cheap. Short space trips will develop first, then hotels will move around the earth where it will be possible to have a longer vacation. By the end of the next century, there will be holiday centers on the moon with things needed for families.

There will be no paper in the future. Instead, there will be e-paper which people will be able to use over and over again. This will develop in order to protect nature. E-newspapers and e-magazines will take the place of traditional newspapers and magazines and we will download information and news articles from the Internet every day onto our re-useable paper.

As we know, the earth is going to disappear sometime in the future. This isn’t going to happen tomorrow but scientists say that it will happen in five billion years. We will have to find another home. At sometime in the future far away, either we stay on the earth and die with it, or we leave and move to another plant. There won’t be any other choice.

What will the home of the future look like? A team of architects (建造师) in Hong Kong say that city homes will be tiny, as populations continue to grow and space becomes more expensive. They have designed “space flats”. 83它们只有30 平米大。These flats have three small rooms, a living room, a bathroom and a bedroom, as well as a balcony (阳台),but everything is carefully planned to make good use of the limited space.

The living room is the main room of the flat. It can be used as an office, a kitchen or even a second bedroom. There is a sofa that can be changed into a bed. The dining table can be changed into a computer desk. And, if not needed, both the sofa-bed and the table can be folded away and stored into a small apace in the wall. There is a flat-screen TV, which can also serve as a computer monitor. In one corner of the room, a small cooker, a microwave oven and a miniature refrigerator are hidden out of sight.

The other rooms are small but useful. The bathroom contains a toilet and a shower. The double bed in the bedroom can also be a sofa, if necessary, The balcony has enough room for two people to sit and enjoy the view from the block of flats. All the rooms have high ceiling to provide as much storage space as possible, while the flat has large windows to let in plenty of sunlight.

“Space flats “are now being tested in a building in Hong Kong. “It’s wonderful,” said one resident(居民) “84. The flat is so well designed that you feel that there is plenty of space”

How do you imagine the future? Will life in the future be better, worse or the same as now? What do you think of the future?

People think that life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all, planes will be very small, so flying will be very cheap. Everyone will have a small car. Fuel(燃料) will be new and clean but expensive. We will see robots everywhere. And space planes will take us around the world in two hours. Houses will be warm in winter and cool in summer, so they will be very comfortable. We’ll use the sunshine to heat our houses. Computers will be very small, so they’ll be very light. People will do many things on the Internet.

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

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

Most of us want to make more friends. The following steps will help you.

Be friendly. You need to be friendly so that people feel good when they stay with you. You should often use body language to make them know that you are friendly. Often smile and laugh, and make eye contact(交流).

Be a good listener. Listen carefully to what people say, remember important things about them (their names, their likes and dislikes), ask questions about their interests, and just take time to learn more about them.

The steps above are great for making new friends, but how about making lifelong(一生的) friends?

Be trustworthy(可信赖的). The key to being a good friend is to keep secrets. If other people ask you to keep a secret, you shouldn’t tell anyone about it. When you say you’ll do something, please do it.

Be there. If a friend needs help, or if he just needs a shoulder to cry on, be there.

Be true to yourself. You should never do anything that you think is wrong. Keep true to yourself.

One of the most famous scientists to study adaptations (适应) was Charles Darwin. He was born in England in 1809. He wasn’t the best student in his school, but when he was 16, his father sent him to a medical school. Charles liked spending time outdoors observing nature more than attending medical classes. He dropped out without graduating.

Next, Charles’s father sent him to school to become a minister (牧师). This time he made it to graduation. But he didn’t want to do the work of a minister. His friends encouraged him to follow his interest in science.

After graduation, Charles was invited to sail on the Beagle as an unpaid scientist. He wasn’t the first choice, but he was the lucky one to go. The Beagle was to travel to South America and then around the world. The crew's task was to make maps of the places they visited.

On December 27th, 1831, Charles Darwin sailed from England on the Beagle. The trip was planned to last two years. In fact, it lasted five. During this time, he saw many amazing things. He collected lots of plants and animals and took them back to England to study.

Twenty-three years later, Darwin published an important scientific paper with another man named Wallace. Darwin described how some animals have adaptations that help them survive. They are passed on to offspring (后代). Darwin’s ideas about adaptations are still very important to the study of living things.

Dear sir,

I’m writing to introduce myself, with the hope of getting the job you advertised in the newspaper.

When I was a child, I liked English and always got good grades. In 1995, after six years of hard work in No.4 Middle School, I entered People’s University of China. I studied English there for four years.

Luckily, I got my first job when I graduated. I taught English in No.4 Middle School from 1999 to 2002.Then I got a chance to receive further education in University of Hawaii in the US. That was a precious (宝贵的) experience in my life. I learnt a lot during those two years, especially the differences between Eastern and Western cultures.

I came back to People’s University of China in 2004. I worked as an assistant professor for 2 years and then a professor. So far I have got 8 years of working experience.

Thank you for reading my letter, and I’ll be glad if you can reply soon.

Yours sincerely,

Wang Tao
