VI. Read the passage and answer the following questions
I find it absolutely fascinating thinking about the future, as technology is rapidly advancing and in
40 years time, who knows what we’ll be able to do with it. Scientists have recently predicted that by 2050
the population of the world will be over ten billion and technology will have advanced so greatly that we
will have far more information about all known diseases (and possibly cures), we will all be living in eco
houses and will no longer face sky high electricity bills and we may even be able to take a holiday to
Mars.
Our daily lives will most definitely be littered with all kinds of new technologies that help us do
the things we hate the most in 2017! House Robo’s will be a likely feature in all homes and will help run
the family home, take out the rubbish, prepare food and hoover the house from top to bottom. Our kitchen
gadgets (such as your fridge, cooker, microwave and dishwasher) will also be ‘robotic’ and will email or
text us, users, when a food item has gone out of date or has been used up. Similarly, the fridge has a built
in camera so that when you are at the supermarket, you can log in to your fridge and check what you need
to stock up on.
It is predicted that by 2050, we will all have ‘weekly digital health checks’ in our homes, which
run sensors over our bodies to check for signs of ill health and any abnormalities. Conditions can instantly

be recognized by the ‘virtual doctor’ inside the health machine and treated immediately, and if you need a
prescription – it will be ordered and sent out automatically. If the digital health check picks up on a person
being overweight, they will send a signal to the domestic house computer to modify their diet and book in
for gym sessions. Because of all this immediate treatment, people will live far longer and won’t be wiped
out by disease or forms of cancer. Medical conditions that are considered rare today, will be far more
known about and will be able to be cured quickly and efficiently.
