| Life in the twenty-first century The World Future Society is a group of people from more than 80 countries who are interested in how modern technology is making our world better, and who write reports about how it will change our lives. The things that we will be able to do in the twenty-first century (since the year 2000) should help us live better lives in many ways, at home and at work, in our own country and around the world. Here are just some of them, put into five groups. People People may live for up to 120 years and use new technology to help when people go blind, deaf and have other problems. The number of people over a hundred years old could go from 135,000 today to 2.2 million people by 2050. By 2015 people think that 100 million workers will be able to work from home for a company in a different country by using the Internet. Money Worldwide e-business will become even more successful with online shops that sell special products for each person, which will be brought to their house the next day. Environment The technology for making energy from wind and the Sun is growing very quickly. In the future wind and Sun energy could become much cheaper and many more countries could use it. This would be very useful in poor countries. The air in big cities would also become much cleaner and healthier as a result. Society and culture The Internet will help to create more worldwide friendships. Families may spend more time together as people will be able to do 24-hour online banking and shopping. Technology The new science of "nanotechnology" (very small robots or machines) will make all sorts of products smaller and lighter. Very, very small machines could take away rubbish, make things in factories, and help inside the human body by taking away fat. By 2012 people will be able to wear these small machines that look like watches, which will give them lots of information about their body and keep them healthy. |

| If you watch the sky about an hour after the sun goes down, you may see some "moving stars". But they"re not real stars. They are man-made satellites. And the biggest of all is the International Space Station (ISS 国际空间站). From now until July is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earth, and people can see it just with their eyes. The ISS is the biggest man-made satellite because scientists want to live on it. They think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there. When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with many of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. The ISS is the most ambitious (雄心勃勃) and expensive space program ever. Billions of dollars are being spent on it every year. Scientists hope that the ISS will be a stepping-stone (垫脚石) for future space exploration."The ISS will help us better understand the human body, explore space and study the earth. It can help us make life on the earth better," said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist. China is not an ISS country, but it has helped with some of the experiments. China sent some rice up to the ISS to find out what space would do to it. The ISS is not finished yet. More than 100 parts need to be put on. Scientists hope it will be finished as soon as possible. After it"s finished, more than 90% of the world"s population will be able to see the Space Station. So keep looking up, and maybe you"ll see it get bigger. |
