6 Work in pairs. Imagine yourself and your city in 2050 CE. Share ideas about things that you think will have happened. Choose from the topics in the box.

education       career  home     friends and family

transport      healthcare         technology

Suggested answer

I expect life in 2050 to be completely different from what we live in now. I expect that in every house there will be a robot doing all the housework.

Transportation will be high-speed, and flying cars and amphibious cars will spread, and I expect that there will be new cities to solve the problem of congestion. Technology will have controlled most aspects of our life. Healthcare centre will have spread to most populated areas by then. There is no doubt that the future will require us to prepare ourselves well, in order to be able to find jobs.  I expect that technology will have a greater role in completing the work, and there will not be many job opportunities. Jobs will be reduced to some specializations, and a large number of jobs that can be performed by robots will be dispensed with.
