Many changes will take place in this century. But what will the changes be? The population(人口)is growing fast. There will be more people in the world and most of them will live longer than people now.
Computers will be much smaller and more useful, and there will be at least(至少)one in every home. And computer studies will be an important subject in school then.
People will work fewer(较少的)hours than they do now, and they will have more free time for sports, TV and travel. Travelling will be much cheaper and easier. And more people will go to other countries for holidays.
There will be changes in our food, too. More land will be used for building new towns and houses for all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep, so meat will be more expensive(昂贵的). Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead they will eat more fruit and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier.
Work in the future(将来)will be different, too. Dangerous and hard work will be done by robots. Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a problem.
