Reading
Long ago, people did not travel far from home. In fact, in the early days, a person might live their whole life in one village.
The first important invention in land travel was the wheel. And then came the wagons. Humans began to have the power to move and carry things across long distances.
The next was the train. After the train came the invention of cars, buses, trucks, and other means of transportation. Humans and goods were able to travel farther than ever before.
Boats and ships provided another important way of travelling. The invention of the compass helped people explore more places. And canal systems made fast waterway transportation possible.
Modern means of transportation, such as high-speed trains and airplanes, help people travel faster and farther. Eco-friendly electric cars are common and self- driving cars are in development. People can even travel to space in spaceships. Who knows what the future holds

分析结构：这是一个含宾语从句的特殊疑问句。Who knows 是主句，疑问代词Who 作主语，knows 是谓语动词。宾语从句what the future holds 由what 引导，作knows 的宾语。what 在从句中作宾语，指代“发生的事”。the future 是从句中的主语，holds 是从句中的谓语。
由特殊疑问词引导的宾语从句也需用陈述句语序(即“主语+ 谓语”顺序) ，即使主句是疑问句，从句也不能倒装。
主句的谓语动词是现在时或将来时，宾语从句的谓语动词按句子意思自由选择时态；主句的谓语动词是过去时，宾语从句的谓语动词一般使用对应的过去时态；若宾语从句表示的是客观真理或永久性情况，通常用现在时。
5. Who knows what the future holds
e.g. Nobody knows what will happen in the future.
没有人知道未来会发生什么。
The police officer stopped us and asked us where we were going.
警官拦住了我们并问我们将要去哪儿。
