Maybe you're wondering how we spend our free time in the year 2059, so I, ll tell you what I did last weekend.
On Saturday morning, I stayed in bed until 11 o’clock, when my mother woke me up. “Wang Mang! Get out of bed, you lazy little pig!” she said. “You can’t lie in bed all day, and you’ve got homework to do, haven’t you?” Were mothers so annoying fifty years ago?
Anyway, I got out of bed and asked the robot to make me a quick brunch—hamburger and French fries. But the robot said, “Sorry, Mang. Your mother says I can only give you hamburgers 3 times a week, and you had 2 hamburgers yesterday. Fast food is not healthy. I suggest you have some of the dumplings I made yesterday. Or perhaps some fruit salad” You see, my mother has programmed the robot to stop it giving me the things 1 really want to eat. I feel like a prisoner (囚犯)!
After finishing my brunch, I got out my homework pad. The pad looks like a piece of paper, but it’s actually a computer. We don’t use paper much any more. Paper books are really expensive, so we usually buy cheap computer books.
I had to do my math homework on Saturday. We never need to use math in our daily lives—computers solve all the math problems for us. But our math teacher says that if people stop studying math, they’ll forget how to think and become like vegetables. Well, I want to be a vegetable. I hate math!
56. The underlined word “brunch” in the third paragraph means .
A. breakfast and lunch B. breakfast with milk
C. lunch with coffee D. lunch and dinner
57. Wang Mang says he feels “like a prisoner” because .
A. he is completely controlled by the robot B. he has to get out of bed too early
C. he doesn’t know how to use the robot D. he isn’t allowed to eat what he likes
58. One difference between the year 2059 and today is that .
A. computer books are cheaper than paper books
B. children aren’t allowed to eat fast food
C. students have to do homework at the weekend
D. there is no paper in the year 2059
59. Wang Mang thinks that studying math is .
A. interesting B. useless C. too hard D. too easy
60. Which can be the best title for the article?
