In my view, the most likely prediction about future life is “robot-supported” . Many people already have robots cleaning their homes at present. A recent report says in the next 50 years, every family will have some sort of a robot servant. So, I believe more robots will be invented to help us in many other aspects in the near future. As far as I’m concerned, the most desirable prediction is “energy-saving” . As we all know, the natural resources on our planet are limited, so I really want to live in a solar-powered sweet dome which needs only a tiny amount of energy to heat and generate power. What else do you think will happen in the future? jobs education environment … home food clothes travel Useful expressions for making predictions • I believe/ think/ guess … • …will/ may/ might … • It is likely/ possible that … • Maybe/ Probably/ Perhaps, … • Ihope that…/ Hopefully, … • be expected to … Make more predictions about the future that you think are both likely and desirable. jobs education environment home food clothes travel I believe future homes will be very safe and environmentally-friendly. Special construction material will be used to prevent flood, fire, radiation and earthquake. What’s more, there won’tbe any formaldehyde (甲醛). So people can move into their homes as soon as they are decorated. Hopefully, every student will have a robot tutor which will help with their studies. The robot tutor will be able to assess the student’s learning level and ability accurately and motivate the student to improve learning efficiency. It is very likely that people won’t have to take the driving test any more. They will travel in driverless cars and all the cars will be interconnected by 10G Internet and there won’t be any traffic jams.
