At the mment, it may be difficult t imagine, but many peple believe that, by the year 2100, weˈll live n the planet—Mars. Our wn planet, the earth, is becming mre and mre crwded and plluted. Luckily, we can start again and build a better wrld n Mars. Here is what life culd be like.
First f all, transprt shuld be much better. At present, ur spaceships are t slw t carry large numbers f peple t Mars—it takes mnths. Hwever, by 2100, the spaceship can travel at half the speed f light. It might take us tw r three days t get t Mars!
Secndly, humans need fd, water and air. Scientists shuld be able t develp plants that can be grwn n Mars. These plants will prduce the fd and air that we need. Hwever, can these plants prduce water fr us? There is n answer nw.
There is a prblem fr us t live n Mars. The gravity n Mars is much less than the gravity n earth. This will be dangerus because we culd easily jump t high and fly slwly away int space. T prevent this, humans n Mars have t wear special shes t make themselves heavier.
Life n Mars will be better than that n the earth in many ways. Peple will have mre space. Living in a large building with 10 bedrms is highly pssible. Many peple believe that rbts will d mst f ur wrk, s we have mre time fr ur hbbies.
There will prbably be n schl n Mars. Every student will have a cmputer at hme which is cnnected t the Internet. They can study, d their hmewrk and take exams in nline schls. Each student will als have his r her wn nline teacher called “e-teacher”.
Hwever, in sme ways, life n Mars may nt be better than that n the earth tday. Fd will nt be the same—meals will prbably be in the frm f pills and will nt be as delicius as they are tday. Als, space travel will make many peple feel ill. The spaceship will travel fast but the jurney t Mars will prbably be very uncmfrtable.
26.Accrding t the passage, by the year 2100, sme f us will pssibly live ________.
A. n MarsB. n the mnC. under the seaD. n the sun
27.S far, hw lng will it take us frm the earth t Mars by spaceship?
A. Tw r three days.B. A few mnths.
C. A few days.D. A few years.
28.In the future, the students n Mars ________.
