Life in the future will be different from life today. But what will the change be?
The population is growing fast. There will be more people in the world and most of them will live longer than people live now.
Computers will be much smaller and more useful and there will be at least one in every home. And computer studies will be one of the important subjects in school then.
People will work fewer hours than they do now and they will have more free time for sports, watching TV and travel. Traveling will be much cheaper and easier. And many more people will go to other countries for holidays.
There will be changes in our food, too. More land will be used for building new towns and houses for all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep, so meat will be more expensive. Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead they will eat more fruits and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier.
Work in the future will be different, too. Dangerous and hard work will be done by robots. Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a problem.
Here is a report from Xinghua Daily Newspaper. Computer games are very popular not only with the young people but also the adults. In some ways, they will take the place of (代替) the traditional games such as cards, chess and so on, because you only need a computer to play computer games. But in the past, if a man wanted to play chess, he must look for another one. In fact, computer games themselves are so interesting and exciting for us that the games can bring you happiness and excitement. They have been used in too many places such as schools, business, hospitals and so on.
Now there are many educational games for the students. They are helpful to the students. They can make the students learn more and better by changing the study ways. When the students play the educational games, they use their brains (大脑), eyes, ears and hands. The students will be active (积极的) to get knowledge while playing. But now the students shouldn't spend too much time on the computer games. Otherwise (另外), it may affect their study.
We have gone into the computer age. And learning too much knowledge through the computer is becoming true.
Liu Wei is very famous in China because he can play the piano with his toes(脚趾).
One day when Liu Wei was only 10 years old, he played a game with some friends. He lost both his arms because of electricity(电).
Liu Wei was very sad when both his arms were cut off after the accident.(事故) But soon he had to make a choice. (选择) "For people like me, there were only two choices. One was to give up(放弃)all the dreams. The other was to work hard without arms to live an excellent life." says Liu Wei.
Liu's dream was to be a pianist. He had a wonderful performance(演奏)on China's Got Talent. He played the beautiful Marriage D'amour(《梦中的婚礼》)with his two feet on the piano.
Liu Wei learned to play the piano with his feet. And teaching himself to play the piano with his feet was very hard. Many times he wanted to give it up, but his parents went on encouraging(鼓励) him and he kept playing the piano.
Maybe you can not believe that Liu Wei is able to play well only with his toes. Many people were deeply touched and very excited when they watched his performance.
