What Will Our Life Be Like in 2040?
Welcome to your future life!
You get up in the morning and look into the mirror. Your face is young-looking. In 2040, medical science is better than ever. Many people of your age could live to be 150, so at 40, you’re not old at all. And your parents just have an anti-aging nanotechnology (纳米技术) treatment. Now, all three of you look the same age!
You say to your shirt, “Turn red.” It changes from blue to red. In 2040, “smart clothes” contain particles (粒子) much smaller than the cells (细胞) in your body. The particles can be programmed to change your clothes’ color or shape.
You walk into the kitchen. You grab the milk, but a voice says, “You shouldn’t drink that!” Your fridge has read the small computer chip (芯片) on the milk’s label (商标), and it knows the milk is old. In 2040, every food item in the grocery store has a small chip.
It’s time to go to work. In 2040, cars drive themselves. Just tell your “smart car” where to go. On the way, you can call a friend using your jacket sleeve (袖子). Nano-sized “smart technology” is all around you. “Your whole body and surroundings will become part of the same network,” says scientist Ampy Buchholz.
“So will all these predictions come true? For new technology to succeed,” says futurist Andrew Zolli, “it has to be so much better that it replaces what we have already.” The Internet is one example—what will be the next?

5G network will allow more people to get information. Big companies like China Mobile and China Unicom will start to offer 5G network. It is said that 5G promises download speeds 10 to 20 times faster than 4G.
Underwater cities will provide more space. The earth is becoming more and more crowded. We may turn to underwater homes, which will be built as low as 15 kilometers below the sea.
Space tours will be a piece of cake. For us common people on the earth, the dream of traveling around space will come true. In the coming years, spacecrafts will be as popular as buses, trains and planes. We can leave our home and enter space to take a trip. And we will even get used to living there.
A robot will be a part of life. Robots can do many of the same things as we humans do, like driving cars. But they will be used in other areas as well. They will be able to think and even tell the difference between right and wrong.
In a word, just as Jules Venne said, “Anything one man can imagine, other men can make real.”

Life in the Future
I believe there will be big changes in our daily lives in the future.
For example, when we’re hungry, we don’t need to cook in a hurry. Just take some pills, and everything will be OK. When we’re free, we can go anywhere by spaceship. It’s easy to be a visitor then. And of course, if we want to see what it’s like under the sea, just travel down there with a new machine. Maybe there are lots of cities and people there. I think it’ll be very easy to travel anywhere, not only in our world but also in space and in the deep sea.
