”

This scene takes place on Tomb Sweeping Day, also known as Qingming

D

What ’ s going to happen in the future? Will robots control our planet? Will computers become smarter than us? Not likely. But here are some things that scientists say are most likely to

happen in 10 to 30 years from now, according to the BBC.

Digital money

We used to pay with cash( 现金 ) for everything we bought. Now when we use a credit card( 信用卡 ) to shop online, money is spent without us seeing it. That means we are already using digital money. Using a card is much easier than searching our pockets for change. It is also safer than carrying a lot of cash.

When ATM cards were first introduced, they were not accepted everywhere. But now it ’hards to live without them. It ’reporteds that people in Sweden completely stopped using cash last year, and the US might be next.

Bionic(仿生的 ) eye

It ’ s no longer something only in a science fiction movie. People who are blind may have a chance to get their sight back---by wearing bionic eyes.

A blind eye can no longer sense light, but a bionic eye can use a camera to “ see ”the environment and send data(数据 ) to the mind. Now the bionic eye only allows patients to see lights and unclear shapes. A high resolution( 高清的 ) image could be just a few years away.

Self-driving cars

Unlike a human driver, a self- driving car won

’distracted(get分神 ) by a phone call, the radio

or something outside the window. Sensors( 探测器 ) and cameras on the car would allow it to stick strictly to the rules of the road and keep a safe distance from other cars. This would greatly reduce

the number of road accidents. You could even take a nap while the car drives itself. In the future, driverless cars would be widely accepted.

46. ______ has stopped using cash completely.

A. Sweden

B. ATM

C. BBC

D. America

47. What does the writer mainly tell us about digital money?

A. We use digital money to shop online without paying money. B. Digital money is most likely to be used instead of cash. C. Using cash is easier and safer than a credit card. D. ATM cards are always popular.

48. Which of the following statements is TRUE ?

A. Bionic eyes only appear in the science fiction film.

B. Human drivers won't get distracted by something outside. C. The blind wearing bionic eyes may see clearly in the future. D. There will be no road accident at all if self-driving cars are used. 49. From the report, we can learn some information about ______.

A. culture and Art

C. science and technology

B. industry and farming D. traffic and journey

50. Which of the following can be predicted( 预测 ) from the passage?

A. There would be a number of self-driving cars on the road B. The blind could use cameras to see things around. C. We would live a hard life with digital money. D. Robots would control the world.

Have you ever thought about one question: why do we need to learn math?

It is an interesting question. Kids around the world have been asking it for years. For US

students, they may get the answer from a new exhibition called

47“activitiesMathAlivare!\" (1)

designed to teach kids how math is used in everyday life. For example, at one exhibition station, visitors can test that a person's arm span( 臂展 ) equals their height. At another station, visitors can control the robot with the help of math skills.

The exhibition will visit 15 US and international cities in the next five years. Organizers say they want more kids to learn why math is important in daily life. Think of simple things, like clocks. They tell time, but only if you know how to read them. That means using math. How much longer until school ends? How long did you sleep last night? That's all math, too.

(2)When you go ______, you also do lots of ______. How much change would you get if

you paid for a 25. 99-yuan sweater with two twenties? How would you calculate a 30% discount? Even when you're not doing math, it's all around you. The computer you use to surf the Internet is a machine to do binary( 二进制 ) math very fast.

So enjoy math, not for exams, but for the wonderful world it helps to build.
