Question

【题目】 Someone says the world would be no more in 2012, but our scientists' ideas are not the same. And they are sure to see the future: by the year 3000, this world is going to have different kinds of private machines. They will make the work much easier for us. I even can't give any guess how many people will be living to use them. However, Odd Stuff Magazine has got some new inventions for the year 3000. Take a look and have fun.

In the future you can save time by having a robot make you exercise while you sleep. The future advancement in the toilet(洗手间) can make people surf at home instead of on the sea. Professional sportsmen can make so much money. And they will hire(雇) people to play for them.

The four-legged jeans of the year 3,000 will make sure you have a place to sit everywhere you go. To save on gas, circus(马戏团) performers will take the place of the school bus drivers. And the helicopter(直升飞机) cap can get you around faster and easier than your bike.
