Thanks for your attention!

【答案】I’m very pleased to have this chance to tell you something about life on Mars. Life on Mars is really different from that on the Earth. People have more space and robots help them do most of their work. There are lots of shopping malls on Mars as well as online cinemas. The transport on Mars is also very special. The public transport is very comfortable and produces no air pollution. Although there are some disadvantages of living on Mars, like the gravity problem. living on Mars is a very interesting and wonderful thing. With the development of technology, more people would be sent to Mars. I’m looking forward to it and I think it’s worth waiting.
