    Spring Festival is our Chinese people's festival. There are twelve names. We call it the year of sheep, the year of dog… and the year of monkey. Before the day of the festival, people are very busy(忙于 ) shopping and cleaning their houses. On the Eve, there is a big family dinner. After dinner, all the family stay up late( 守夜 ) to welcome the new year. It is the middle of the night. We have some dumplings and watch many good TV programs( 节目). On the first day of the New Year, people wear their new clothes to go to their friends' houses. They say “ Happy Spring Festival” to each other. Children will get some money from their parents or other people. So people especially( 特别) children like Spring Festival very much.

The future

    In the future, everything will be different. I think the future will be fun.

    Cars will fly. We won't drive on the roads. There won't be traffic-jams. Children will fly to school in a flying school bus. Or they will fly to school on a flying bicycle.

    Work will be different. People will have more leisure time. They will only work three days a week. The weekend will be four days long. Lots of people will work online from home. Everyone will go on vacation five times a year.

    Food well be different. We won't eat the same things we eat today. We won't buy food at the supermarket. We will buy our food online. A truck will deliver food to our houses.

    Lots of people won't cook. They will eat at a restaurant every day.

    Yes, thing will be different in the future!
