II. Reading
2 Match the titles (a—g) and the texts (1—6).There is one title you don’t have to use.
a) The Future Devices to Explore Space b) The Probable Future Changes in Humans’ Bodies c) The Future Habitat for Humans d) The Future Ways of Education e) The Future Technological Revolution in the Fastest Growing Industry f) The Future Ways to Secure Your Kid g) The Future Environmental Disasters
1. Scientists are learning more than ever about the Moon. The Moon was formed billions of years ago. But no one is sure just how. Space was full of dust and rocks in those days and these came together to form the Earth. Perhaps when the Earth was first formed, a part of it broke and became the Moon. Astronauts have travelled to the Moon. They have brought back information that helps us to understand the Moon better. Nowadays research is carried out and projects of colonizing the Moon are being discussed. Who knows, it can become our future home some day.
2. The next generation of computers, scientists predict, will be able to talk and even think for themselves. Of course, they’ll be still a lot simpler than human brains but it will be a great Step forward. Such computers will help diagnose illnesses, they may help to find minerals, understand and control the world’s money markets, identify criminals and control space travel.
3. The results of the future climate change can be really scary. It is quite probable to have streets of big cities buried under hundreds of metres of snow as now we are having the same streets under torrents of water.
The Earth can become dangerously polluted. People will suffer from food and fresh water shortages. In the end sea levels can rise so much that people will hardly be able to find appropriate places to live.
4. Kids’ thumbs are getting bigger and stronger because they spend much time texting and playing computer games. Young people use their thumbs much more often than adults do. They use their thumbs to type on a keyboard and play video games. Using thumbs is so common in Japan that the Japanese call teenagers the “thumb generation”. Scientists think that this shows that modern technology can make the physical structure of people different.
5. Microchips can usually be found in computers, but nowadays some children have them in their arms. Is microchipping children a good idea? Why do certain parents agree to microchip their daughters and sons?
Those who do it say that they want their children to be safe. They always know where the young members of the family are and can help them if they feel there’s any danger.
But there are many people who are against this idea. They say it’s better to teach children about the possible dangers of talking to strangers than to treat them like robots or pets.
6. Ever since the Russian Sputnik was launched in 1957, satellites have got steadily larger and heavier. Sputnik weighed 84 kg, its modern successors usually weigh several tones. Today it is possible to do more with less.
Just as mobile phones and laptop computers get smaller yet more “intelligent” every year, researchers are now building small experimental satellites. Some of them have already been launched. Each is the size of a cigarette packet and weighs 250 grams.
