What will city life be like in the future? Some people think that life in the cities is going to be horrible. They say that cities will become more and more crowded. As the number of people increases, there will be less space for each person. This overcrowding will cause other problems — more crime, dirtier streets , and worse problems with traffic than we have now. How will people find enough drinking water, energy (such as gas and electricity ), and housing? Because life will be hard, people who live in cities will worry more, and they may become sick. For these reasons, some say that nobody will want to live in city areas.

How can we deal with such problems as overcrowding, crime, and traffic? In some cities, thousands of people are already sleeping in the streets because there is little suitable housing — and because houses are too expensive. The crime rate isn’t going down. Instead, it is increasing so fast that many people are afraid to go out at night. Traffic is also getting worse. More and more often, traffic jams are so bad that cars don’t move at all for several streets. These problems have been getting worse, not better, so many people see no hope for the future of the city.

Los Angeles, California, for example, has no subway system and buses are slow. Instead, many commuters (乘、开车上班族) drive many miles from their homes to work. Many of these drivers spend several hours each day on busy freeways. New York, however, has a big transit system — buses, commuter trains, and subways. Because the public transportation is crowded and dirty, many people drive private cars, and the traffic jams are worse than that in Los Angeles. A taxi driver complains, “I was driving home, but in forty-five minutes I moved only two miles! Finally, I turned off the engine and just sat there. A lot of people left their cars where they were in the middle of the street and went into a bar for a few beers!”

On the other hand, some cities have clean, fast and pleasant public transportation systems. In Paris, France, and Toronto, Canada, for example, anyone can use buses or subways to move quickly from one part of the city to another.

1.What do some people think is the main problem of the future city like?

A. Poor housing.                    B. Overcrowding.

C. Environmental pollution.           D. Traffic jams.

2.The best way to work out the traffic problem in Los Angels might be _________________.

A. cutting down the number of private cars

B. providing more buses in the freeway

C. building a subway system

D. persuading people to live nearer to their workplaces

3.Which of the following sentences is NOT TRUE?

A. Thousands of people are already sleeping in the streets.

B. The crime rate isn’t going down.

C. The traffic jams are so bad that cars don’t move at all for several streets.

D. Many people have a positive attitude towards the future of the city.

What will man be like in the future——in 5000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.

Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain’s capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.

Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over very long period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger.

On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.

But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.

Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.

1. The passage mainly tells us that____.

A. man’s life will be different in the future

B. future man will look quite different from us

C. man is growing taller and uglier as time passes

D. the functions of man’s organs(器官) will function as well as today

2. Which of the following serves as the evidence that man is changing?

A. Man’s hair is getting thinner and thinner.

B. Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had.

C. Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.

D. Man’s arms and legs have become lighter and weaker.

3. The change in man’s size of forehead is probably because__________

A. he makes use of only 20 % of the brain’s capacity.

B. the other 80% of his brain will grow in due（预定的） time.

C. his brain has grown larger over the past centuries.

D. he will use his brain more and more as time goes on.

4. Which of the following is true about a human being in the future?

A. He thinks and feels in different way.

B. He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.

C. He is hairless because hair is no longer useful.

D. His fingers grow weaker because he doesn’t use them.

5. It can be inferred from the passage that __________.

A. future life is always predictable（可预测的）

B. human beings hope for a change in the future life

C. human beings will become less attractive in the future

D. Less use of a bodily organ may lead to its degeneration（衰退）
