What’s going to happen in the future? Here are some things that scientists say is most likely to happen 10 to 30 years from now.
1. Digital money
We used to pay with cash(現(xiàn)金)for everything we bought. In fact, we are already using one type of digital money, when we swipe(刷)our bus pass or use a credit card(信用卡)to shop online.
You have to admit that using a card is much easier than searching your pocket for change. It is also _________ than _________a lot of cash with you. You needn’t worry about your cash being stolen. People in Sweden completely stopped using cash last year and the US might be next.
2. Bionic(仿生的)eye
(1)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 into the brain.
Although the bionic eye that’s out now only allow patients to see lights and unclear shapes, a high resolution(高清的)version could be just a few years away.
3. Self-driving car
Unlike a human driver, a self-driving car won’t be distracted (分神)by a phone call, the radio or something outside the window. Sensors(探測器)and cameras on the car would allow it to keep strictly to the rules of the road and keep a safe distance from other cars. This would greatly reduce the number of road accidents. Many vehicle companies are now planning self-driving cars. By 2040, driverless vehicles will be the main vehicles on the road.

Taking part in charity is not just for grown- up people. Children can do it too! Melvin Sheppard, 14, an American student, has done charity work for eight years. He has also encouraged his classmates to join him.
Melvin studies at William Allen Middle School in Philadelphia. Recently, he collected $1,500 by himself and $487 from his classmates to donate to Cooper University Hospital.
Melvin was born nine weeks premature (早產(chǎn)) in Cooper University Hospital, weighing 2.6kg. His father told him how Cooper saved his life, so he felt thankful to the hospital.
Melvin's classmates joined him as soon as they found out about his kind behavior. Their teacher, Michael Berner, also held a class with them about helping others. “It wasn’t really about the money,” Berner said. “It was about the face that they were doing something good.”
“It is great, helping someone that I know,” said Jordan, Melvin's classmate. Melvin's neighbors also helped out.
Since Melvin was 8, he and his parents have given money to Cooper University Hospital every year. This year, Gary E. Stahl, the head of Cooper's division of neonatology (新生兒科), went to Melvin's school to accept the money.
The money goes to a part of the hospital that helps about 500 young patients every year. “When they leave, we call them graduates,” Stahl said, “We are pleased when our graduates and their families do well, like Melvin and his family.”

Every year, thousands of students choose to study in another country for a term, or a year. Studying overseas can be an exciting experience for many people.
Why do it
Living in another country can help you to learn another language, and
about another culture. You will see the world in a new way, and learn more
about yourself. Overseas study may also look good on your future resume
(求職簡歷). Many companies today want employees who speak a second language, or have experiences living or working in another country.
Making the right choice
Once you decided to study overseas, you have to make some choices. To choose the right
country or school, ask yourself: Where do I want to go and why? How much do I want to pay? How
long do I want to study abroad? Do I want to live with roommates, alone or somewhere else?
Getting ready to go
Get your passport and visa early! Before you go, learn some of the language, and read about
some common customs in the country that you are going to. Learn about the money. Bring some of it and a credit card with you.
Once you are there
After the first few weeks overseas, many students will feel a little homesick. They may miss their family, friends, and familiar ways of doing things. Remember that it takes time to get used to a new place, school and culture. When you feel sad or homesick, try to talk to others, or write your feelings in a notebook.
小題1:Studying overseas can bring many people an exciting experience.
小題2:The experiences of living or working in another country can help you find a good job.
小題3:If you decide to study abroad, you should make the right choice first.
小題4:You have to get a passport and visa after you go abroad and learn English well.
小題5: Try to talk to your parents or return home when you feel sad or homesick.
