— It's {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (relax).

    When I was little, my grandpa looked after me because my parents were both busy {#blank#}2{#/blank#}their work. At that time, only a few people {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(have) cars. Most people usually got around{#blank#}4{#/blank#}bike. And how did I go to the school then? Yes, I went there on Grandpa's bike! {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the bike was moving forward, it made some funny sounds that made me {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(laugh). I always clapped my little hands and sang {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(happy). Grandpa turned back over and over again to make sure my little feet would not get caught in the wheels. Grandpa was so careful {#blank#}8{#/blank#} I never got hurt in his care.

    {#blank#}9{#/blank#} a sweet memory it is! Now, I am studying in a boarding school and I miss my grandpa a lot. I wish I could relive those old {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(day).

    We live in a small town and almost everyone knows each other. It used to be very quiet. Nothing much ever happened around here. However, these days something unusual is {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(happen) in our town. Victor, a teacher at my school, is really nervous. When he was interviewed {#blank#}2{#/blank#} the town newspaper, he said, "Every night we hear strange noises outside {#blank#}3{#/blank#}(we) window. My wife thinks that it could be {#blank#}4{#/blank#}animal, but my friends and I think it must be teenagers having fun. My parents called the policemen, but they couldn't find anything strange. They think it might be the wind. I don't think so!"

    Victor's next-door neighbor Helen is {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(worry), too. "At first, I thought that it might be a dog, but I couldn't see a dog or anything else, either. So I guess it can't be a dog. But then, what could it be?" One woman in the area {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(see) something running away, but it was dark so she is not sure." I think it was too big to be a dog," she said." Maybe it {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(be) a bear or a wolf."

    Everyone in our town is feeling{#blank#}8{#/blank#}(easy), and everyone has his or her ideas. There must be something visiting the homes in our neighborhood,{#blank#}9{#/blank#}what is it? We have no idea. Most people hope that this animal {#blank#}10{#/blank#}person will simply go away, but I do not think that is going to happen. The noise-maker is having too much fun creating fear in the neighborhood.

    A new report showswhat life might be like in 100 years from now. Experts on space and architecture(建筑),and city planners gave their ideas on life in 2116. Twenty－fiveyears ago, we could not imagine how greatly the Internet would change our lives.Now the Internet hasrevolutionized the way we communicate and learn. Theysaid the changes in the next century would be even more unbelievable.

    The way we live,work and play will be totally different from today. There will be many tall buildings,underwater cities, and holidays in space. People will work at home and have virtual(虚拟的)work meetings. People will have 3D printers to "print"everything they need at home, such as food, clothes and so on. There will also beless need for doctors. Our home health robot will tell us what the problem is andgive us treatment. We will also go into space for holidays and get resources thatwe have used up on the Earth. Researchers interviewed 2，000adults about the predictions, and most of them thought they were most likely tohappen!
