1. 听下面一段独白，根据所听内容选择最佳答案

Hello, I'm Alice. What will the life be like in the future? Will the environment be better<br />or worse? I think the environment will be better, because people will plant more trees<br />to save the earth. Then will more people go to work by car? I think so. But the cars won't<br />pollute the environment. As for education, I don't think there will be schools in the<br />future. Children will study at home on computers. Besides, parents will have more time to be<br />with their children, because they will go to work three days a week. At home, robots<br />will help them do the housework. Don't you think that would be so cool?<br />Hello, I'm Alice. What will the life be like in the future? Will the environment be better<br />or worse?
