We don’t know how different our future will be in the future. We can only try to imagine it.
At first we think about human relationship. In the year 2050, we will use computers almost every day. We will be making new friends through the Internet----even our husbands or wives will be met in this way. It will be much faster and easier for us. On the other hand, our relationships with people won’t be as important as they are today----we will feel a little lonely.
Computers will also help us in many other activities in 2050. For example, they will be used by the children at school to make their learning easier. In addition, there will be much more other machines which will play a similar role as computers, like robots which will do the housework for us.
Spending holidays will also be completely different. Traveling to other planets or to the moon will be available for everyone. Means of transport will, of course, change, too. We will be using solar-powered cars, which will be much more environmentally friendly.
We could expect that the faster technological progress would lead to a more polluted environment. But it isn’t true. We will pay more attention to protecting the environment. And, scientists will probably find cures for many dangerous diseases, like cancer or AIDS. Therefore, our surroundings as well as our health will be in a better condition.
Although we can’t predict the exact changes which will be made in the world, we often think about them. We worry about our and our children’s future; we have expectations, hopes as well as fears. But I think we should be rather sanguine about our future. We should be happy and believe good things will happen.
1.Why will people probably feel a little lonely in 2050?
A. Because the number of people will become much smaller.
B. Because people won’t communicate with each other much often.
C. Because people won’t like making friends with each other.
D. Because there will be less face-to-face communication.
2.According to the passage, which of the following will happen in 2050?
A. It won’t be difficult for people to travel to other planets.
B. The way of spending holidays will be the same as that of today.
C. The relationship between people will be more important than today.
D. Our environment will be much more polluted with a growing number of cars.
3.The underlined word “sanguine” in the last paragraph most probably means ______.
A. disappointed B. optimistic
C. curious D. surprised
4.What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. How people will communicate in the year 2050.
B. What high technology will appear in the year 2050.
C. How people will travel and spend their holiday in the year 2050.

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 a 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 too: 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 a 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 (光秃的).
Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. But 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.humans needn't wear glasses in the future.
B.man's life will be different in the future.
C.future man will look quite different from us.
D.man is growing taller and uglier as time passes.
2.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A.future life is always predictable (可预测的)
B.human beings will become less attractive in the future
C.less use of a bodily organ (器官) may lead to its degeneration (退化)
D.human beings hope for a change in the future life
3.Future man will be similar to us in ________.
A.Colour and height B.size and appearance
C.thought and observation D.thought and emotion
