Life
in the future will be different from life today. Between then and now many
changes will take place. But what will the changes be?
The
population is growing fast. There will be many people in the world and most of
them will live longer than people live now.
Computers
will be much smaller and more useful, and there will be at least one in every
home. And computer studies will be one of the most important subjects in
schools then. People will work for fewer hours than they do now and they will
have more free time for sports, watching TV and travelling. Travelling will be
much cheaper and easier. And many more people will go to other countries for
holidays.
There
will be changes in our food, too. More land will be used for building new towns
and houses for all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep,
so meat will be more expensive. Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead,
they will eat more fruit and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier. Work
in the future will be different, too. Robots will do dangerous and hard work.
Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a
problem.
