When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor said, “I’ve noticed that all the nice looking, expensive cups______up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. Although______is normal for you to take only the best for yourselves, that is the root of your problem and stress. You know that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee.

What will life be like in 50 years? A group of experts from the UK have painted us a picture-a report on life in the future. By 2069, according to the report, the digital revolution(電子革命) will have greatly changed the world. It will be like what the Industrial Revolution did 250 years ago. What impossible things will become possible? Let's take a look.

Underwater highways

They will be built under the sea. People will travel in pods(吊艙) through underwater tubes (管道). It will take less than an hour to travel between the UK and mainland Europe.

Flying taxis and buses

To stop traffic jams, people might take flying taxis and buses .For long-distance travel, they might take super-fast rockets.Travel time between London and New York could be just 30 minutes.

Space hotels

Don't know where to go during the holiday? Outer space might be a good place. People will have fun in space hotels. These hotels will be built near the moon or the planets of our solar system.

Self-cleaning homes

Future homes might clean themselves while you're at school or work, or while you sleep. It could be as easy as pressing a button.

Insect-burgers昆蟲(chóng)漢堡

Insects will become our main food: They are rich in protein(蛋白質(zhì)) . People can make them into burgers and biscuits. People can breed more insects in their kitchens.

Underground skyscrapers

You could call them“earth-scrapers”. They are underground buildings . During an earthquake, these buildings would not fall over like normal skyscrapers.
