What will life be like in the future? How will things change? Here are some ideas. Which one will come true?
In the future, a change of weather won’t mean a change of clothes. We’ll wear a new kind of clothes. They’ll be warm when we’re cold, and cool when we’re hot.
There’ll be no more light rain (小雨) and cold wind in spring. The weather will be quite warm or even hot all year, with heavy rain and wind. The sea level (海平面) will be much higher.
We won’t travel by bus or by bike any more. Every family will have a small plane. No more expensive cars—it’ll be cheap to travel everywhere by plane, not only over land, but also over the sea or even into space. Maybe there will be traffic jams (交通拥堵) in the air.
Do you like long holidays? Well, you’re going to like the future because machines and robots will do all the heavy and difficult jobs, and we’ll only do light and easy work. Working hours will be short so people will have long holidays.
24. According to this passage, we will wear ________ clothes in different weather in the future.
A. warm B. cold C. the same D. different
25. We learn from this passage that maybe traffic jams will happen ________.
A. everywhere B. in space C. on the sea D. in the air
26. Why will people have long holidays in the future?
A. Because they will have no jobs. B. Because robots will do all the easy jobs.
C. Because they won’t need to work for a long time. D. Because people will be lazier.
27. Which is the best title?
A. Life in the Future B. Work in the Future
C. Clothes Change in the Future D. Traffic in the Future
C
Before I begin my story, I would like to tell you a little about myself.
I was born in the year 1632, in the city of York in the north of England. My father was German but he came to live and work in England. Soon after that, he married my mother who was English. Her family name was Robinson, so when I was born they called me Robinson after her.
My father did well in his business and I went to a good school. He wanted me to get a good job and live a quiet comfortable life. But I did not want that. I wanted adventure and an exciting life.
“I want to be a sailor and go to sea” I told my mother and father. They were very unhappy about this.
“Please do not go,” my father said. “You will not be as happy as you know. Sailors have a difficult and dangerous life.” And because I loved him and he was unhappy I tried to forget about the sea.
But I could not forget and about a year later I saw a friend in town. His father had a ship and my friend said to me, “We’re sailing to London tomorrow. Why do not you come with us?”
And so on September 1st, 1651, I went to Hull and the next day we sailed for London. But a few days later there was a strong wind. The sea was rough and dangerous and the ship went up and down, I was very ill and very afraid.
“Oh, I do not want to die!” I cried. “I want to live. If I live, I will go home and never go to sea again!” The next day the wind dropped and the sea was quiet and beautiful again. “Well Bob,” my friend laughed. “How do you feel now? The wind was not too bad.”
“What?” I cried. “It was a terrible storm!”
“Oh that was not a storm” my friend answered. “Just a little wind. Forget it. Come and have a drink”
After a few drinks with my friend I felt better. I forgot about the danger and decided not to go home. I didn’t want my friends and family to laugh at me. I stayed in London for some time but I still wanted to go to sea. So when the captain of a ship asked me to go with him to Guinea in Africa I agreed. And so I went to sea for the second time.
To be continued......

You can buy lots of things during a livestream (直播), such as food and clothes, and now even a ticket to space.
On Oct 24, Deep Blue Aerospace, a Chinese space company (公司), sold two space travel tickets in a live stream. This was the first time space tickets were sold in China. The tickets were priced at 1.5 million (百万) yuan each. But during the stream, they were sold for 1 million yuan each.
The space trip will last about 12 minutes. According to the company, passengers will sit in a spacecraft (航天器) that is about 4 meters tall and 3.5 meters wide, with six big windows and space for six people. The spacecraft will go 100 kilometers above Earth. Travelers will experience weightlessness (失重) for at least five minutes and see Earth from above before coming back down safely.
Passengers must be between 18 and 60 years old. They need to be healthy. They also have to take some security training before the trip. The trip will use the company’s Nebula-1 rocket. It runs on oxygen and kerosene (煤油) and can be reused. This makes the launch (发射) cheaper. As this technology gets better, space tickets might become less expensive, said Huo Liang, CEO of Deep Blue Aerospace.
The company plans to do lots of tests in 2026 to make sure the space trip is safe. They hope to begin the trip in 2027.
32. What did Deep Blue Aerospace do on Oct 24?

34. How can the company make the trip cheaper?
A. By reusing its rockets. B. By stopping using kerosene.
C. By working with other companies. D. By increasing the number of travelers.
35. What can we infer (推断) from the passage?
A. Space travel will become popular in 2027.
B. Space travelers are more likely to be rich people.
C. The company can keep travelers safe in space now.
D. The first group of space travelers will be five people.
