Our future
Scientists give their predictions (预测) about life in the future.
Will there be schools in the future? Yes, children will still go to school, but schools will be very different. There will still be teachers, but computers will teach some lessons. Some students will study at home and learn in virtual (虚拟的) classrooms. Virtual reality will give them an image of a classroom in three dimensions - or 3D. They will see their teacher and their friends, so they will feel like they are really at school. |
Will computers understand what we say to them? Computers will be more intelligent (智能). They will understand what we say, what we think and how we feel. In the future, people and computers will be part of a huge radio network. We will send messages from our brain to our computer and the computer will send messages straight (直接地) to our brain, without using wires. When you want to learn new things. Our computer will send the information straight to our brain. |
What will clothes be like? In a few years there will be clothes with soft TV screens in them. You will be able to change the pattern on your T-shirt. You can show music videos on your clothes while you are dancing. |
Will we have robots to help us? In the future, we will have lots of very clever robots. The robots will be very small, but they will be everywhere. They will clean our homes and make our meals. |
