Tapescripts
Host: On today‘s episode (n.一集;插句,插段;片段)
of “Future Changes”, we talk with two experts(专家;能手)
from different fields, Dr Han and Vincent Black, to hear their
predictions about the future. First, Dr Han, could you please tell
our audience what you do?
Dr Han: Certainly. I'm a computer scientist.
Host: And could you please tell us your prediction?
Dr Han: Yes, well, I forecast that computers will be cleverer than us in the
future. I think that people will also be programming computers to
think like humans.
Host: That's very interesting, but aren't you worried
that such computers would be dangerous?
People should be worried that computers would be dangerous.

Dr Han: Not at all. This is because we'll be programming them to not
think in ways that may harm humans. In fact, we'll also be
creating machines to help people internally. For example, I
think scientists will put some small intelligent machines, called
nanobots, inside our bodies to increase our abilities.
Host: Wow! That would make each one of us superhuman! And
Vincent, could you please tell us about your job?
Vincent Black: Certainly. I'm an architect, I design buildings.
Host: And what is your prediction about the buildings
of the future?
Vincent Black: It's about the cities of the future, actually.
I believe that cities floating on water are part of the world's
future.
Host: Oh, really? What might make us want to do that?
Vincent Black: Yes. With global warming causing polar(极地的) ice to
melt(融化), the sea level rising by many meters is a very
realistic prospect. Instead of moving people away from the
sea, I think that people could move into housing in cities that float.
Host: That sounds very innovative. Could you please give us more details?
Vincent Black: Sure. Well, I've developed a plan by designing
a city that borrows many ideas from the giant
water lily, a flower that floats on water.
Moreover...
In groups, brainstorm about the future. Discuss these points.
future events or problems the world might face
future technologies
how these things will change the way we live and help us to solve future events and problems
