:


Listen and check your guessing
Mai:
Wow! Driverless cars already exist. I can't believe it.
Veronica: Yes, they look so cool! What will be next ?
Phuc:
I'm sure there'll also be flying cars.
Mai:
Does that mean we'll still have traffic jams... in the sky ?
Veronica: Ha ha, yes, maybe there will be!

Phuc:
No, I think they'll have SSS. It's a sky safety system. It'll stop everyone
from crashing. It'll help them avoid traffic jams too.
Mai:
I'd prefer to have a jet pack. I'll wear it on my back. It doesn't take up lots
of space, and I'll use mine to fly anywhere easily.
Phuc:
Do you think you can use it in bad weather ?
Mai:
No, I don't think it will be pleasant.
Veronica: Then perhaps a teleporter is the best. It makes you disappear. Then you
reappear in another place seconds later!
Phuc:
Wow, your idea is really imaginative, Veronica!
Veronica: Haha, yes. That programme really got me thinking.
Mai:
I do worry about one thing. How much fuel will these means of transport
use ? Will pollution be much worse ?
Phuc:
Don't worry, Mai. The future is green! Solar energy will power
