When we feel hot, the house will become cool. And the color of the walls can change (变化) as we wish. We won't need to cook meals by ourselves. Robots will do all the cooking for us. They can make delicious food just like the best cooks. They can even learn our favorite recipes (食谱) and make them better.
Transportation (交通工具) will also be different. There will be many flying cars and we can go anywhere we want quickly and easily. We will have more free time to do things we like, such as reading, painting and traveling. Maybe we'll be able to visit other planets for vacations one day!
The life in the future is sure to bring us more surprises and happiness. We can look forward to a more convenient (方便的) and enjoyable lifestyle.

We used to pay with cash for everything we bought. In fact, we are already using one kind of digital (数字的) money when we take a bus or use a credit card (信用卡) to shop online. You have to say that using digital money is much easier than using cash. It is also safer than taking a lot of cash with you.
Blind (失明的) people may have a chance to get their sight back—by wearing bionic eyes (仿生眼). A blind eye can no longer sense light, but a bionic eye can use a camera to “see” the environment and send the message into brain. Although the bionic eye now only helps patients to see lights and unclear shapes, a better and clearer bionic eye could be just a few years away.
Unlike a human driver, a self-driving car won't lose attention (注意) because of a phone call, a radio or something outside the window. Sensors (传感器) and cameras on the car would allow it to keep strictly to the rules of the road and keep a safe distance (安全距离) from other cars. This would greatly reduce (减少) the number of road accidents. Many companies are now planning self-driving cars. By 2045, driverless cars will be the main transport on the road.

Facing Our Future
The face is usually the first thing you notice when looking at someone. Everyone has something about his or her face that's a little different. And that little difference makes facial recognition possible.
You can find this technology in many popular films. In the sci-fi classic 2001: A Space Odyssey, a powerful computer is able to “read” the emotions (情绪) of astronauts by scanning (扫描) their faces. And in the 1987 action film RoboCop, a cyborg (半人半机器) police officer identifies (识别) a criminal by scanning his photo on a computer.
Today, facial recognition tech is no longer just in films. It has been used as a security measure (安保手段) or to identify threats (威胁).
For example, in 2018, facial recognition technology helped identify and catch criminals who were attending concerts by Hong Kong singer Jacky Cheung. And if you use a recent model of Apple's iPhone, you can unlock the phone with your face. But these are just a few of the things we can use facial recognition for. The possibilities (可能性), it seems, are endless (无尽的).
Grab, a ride-hailing (叫车服务) company in Southeast Asia, is developing facial recognition technology that can keep passengers safe. The technology works by scanning both the driver's face and the passenger's face. This way, passengers can be sure that their driver is the correct one.
Retailers (零售商) are also looking to facial recognition technology to drive (促进) business. With the technology, retailers are able to “see” what their shoppers are actually looking at in stores. Later, they use this information to provide suggestions (建议) for customers in the future.
13. A powerful computer can “read” the ______ of astronauts in 2001: A Space Odyssey.
A. emotions
B. information
C. dreams
14. The cyborg police officer identifies a criminal by ______.
A. scanning his ID card
B. scanning his photo
C. searching for his information
15. Grab develops facial recognition technology to ______.
A. keep drivers safe

C. keep passengers safe
16. With the facial recognition technology, retailers can ______.
A. sell more products
B. see daily sales
C. provide accurate suggestions for customers

三、阅读表达(共5小题；每小题2分,计10分)
阅读下面短文,完成短文后的问题。
The world will be very different in 2045. So what's going to happen then It's pretty possible that robots and AI will change the world a lot. Also, self-driving and flying cars will come into our daily life.
However, scientists have even bigger ideas. In the video called Forward to the Future, scientists predicted what the world would be like in 2045.
Dr. Justin Sanchez believes we'll be able to control (控制) things simply by using our mind. “Think about a world where you just use your mind to control your environment,” Justin said. Scientists are working hard to have some progress (进展).
“The future has more than just that. Many other exciting things could change the buildings and other things around us,” says Stefanie Tompkins. “We'll be able to build things that are very strong but not heavy,” she predicted.
Pam Melroy believes we're going to find that we have a very different relationship with the machines around us. “I think we'll be able to control a machine just by only saying some simple words,” she said. For example, right now to land a plane, in Pam's words, a pilot may just need to say the words “prepare for landing”. Then the computer knows the steps it needs to take. Or maybe, a pilot won't even be necessary.
