How Will Life in 2050 Be Like?
What picture of the future do you have? Will life in the future be better, worse or the same as it is now? What do you hope about the future? Scientists predict that life will probably be very different in 2050 in all the fields(领域).
First of all, it seems that channels(频道) will have disappeared by 2050. Instead, people will choose a TV programme from a "menu" and a computer will send the programme directly to the television. And we will be able to smell and feel the things that we see on television.
In transportation, cars will have computers to control(控制) the speed and there won't be any accidents. Today, many cars have computers that tell drivers where they are. By 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to the place where you are going.
In technology, many factories and big companies will use robots instead of people, because they do not ask for pay rises, and they work 24 hours a day. And we will see robots everywhere—in schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.
In medicine technology, we will be able to help blind and deaf people see again and hear again. Scientists will be able to make clones(克隆) of people and decide how they look and how they behave.

【答案】
(1)B
(2)A
(3)B
(4)C
【解析】
(1)细节理解。文章的第三段讲的是transportation交通,第四段讲的是technology技术,最后一段讲的是medicine。故选择B。
(2)细节理解。频道也就是电视频道,在2050前会消失。因为已经存在的东西不可能会出现、呈现,也不是动物,不会灭绝,只能消失。故选择A。
(3)细节理解。选择不对的选项。从第二段的最后一句知道A选项信息是对的,排除A选项。从第二段的第二句看出B选项的信息是错误的,故选择B。
(4)文章主旨。这边文章写得是2050年世界的畅想,肯定是在杂志中,而不是在历史书,广告或者在明信片中,故选C。
