   Travelling in the future will be much easier and safer.

   People may travel in a driverless car. Even old or disable people will be able to use it because the car can drive itself. However, a driveless car will be expensive.

   People can choose to go on foot on moving pavements. A Swiss company has invented a system of high- speed moving pavements. People will go through the streets at up to 15 km per hour just by standing on the pavements. This will reduce travelling time of pedestrians and traffic jams effectively. Therefore, more people will leave their vehicle home.

Will people still read books 100 years from now? A few years ago, many people would have said no. It seemed likely that computers and the Internet would replace books. Now, however, most experts think that books are here to stay.

There are a number of reasons why computers will not replace books entirely. One reason is that books on paper are much cheaper than computers. And books do not need a power source. You can read a book for as long as you want and wherever you want. You never have to worry about losing power. Also, many people feel more comfortable reading woeds in a book than reading woeds on a computer screen because it is less tiring to the eyes.

Will books in the future be exactly the same as the books you can buy today? The answer to that question is no. In the future, you may only need to buy one book. With this one book, you will be able to read novels, plays, and newspapers. It will look like today's books, but it will be electronic.

One of the people working on the book of the future is Professor joseph Jacobson from Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Professor Jacobson's electronic book will have a small button on the side. When you oress the button, woeds will instantlu appear on the page. When you want to read a different story, you can push the button again and a new story will quickly appear.

I’m Brian. My future house will be a modern villa on the moon. It will be surrounded by many trees and flowers. There will be an automatic door so I can get in easily. There might be 10 rooms in my house: a living room, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, two toilets, a kitchen, a dining room and a room full of books. It will have robots to do household chores. The robots will clean my house, wash the dishes and clothes, cook meals, etc. It will be comfortable to live in that house.

Question: Brian’s house in the future will be a big penthouse.

A. True

B. False

Well! I´m good at Mathematics, Art, exploring or discovering new things… I like English, socializing and Science... I don´t have a special hobby, but in my free time (if this can be considered!!) I like singing, writing lyrics in English, searching for information about many things, taking photos and travelling.

With so many things I like, I think that every job can be “acceptable”, except jobs where the employee has keep himself imprisoned in an office all day long… But the funniest thing is that I’m a little bit lazy and I would like to be a singer ever since I know myself…

But right now I would like to be a doctor! I know that the bad part is that doctors have to keep themselves in an office, but who cares?!… I like helping people very much and I enjoy learning all I can about everything! I only hope that my future job will bring me lots of success!!!

It´s obvious that when we go to a job interview we shouldn´t chew gum, come unprepared, look down onto the floor, put our leg up or play with items on the desk, slap the interviewer on the hand, be late and talk fast or speak in slang. We should answer all the questions clearly and directly, bring an extra copy of our CV and references, continuously keep eye contact with the interviewer, display sense of humor and self-confidence, dress appropriately for the interview, get ourselves a strong knowledge of the company, industry and position, give a firm handshake, know the company that is interviewing us, look attentive and sit properly and upright in your chair.

I am very worried with the unemployment because if right now there is no work for everybody, in the future this will be even worse … I think that part-time jobs are good, because young people can get some work experience… And when people want some extra money this could be heaven, just joking!!!

Maybe later I will look for one part-time and yes if I could, I would already have one (to buy important things). But part-time jobs have advantages and disadvantages, too! When we´re studying part-time jobs can take us precious we need to study and our concentration…
