    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!

Zhou Yan is a middle school student in Sichuan Province. She has got a new mobile phone (手机)! It's a gift from her parents. They want her to use it to learn English during the coming winter holiday. But Zhou uses it to watch videos (视频) and send messages (信息). She plays with her mobile phone all the time, even after going to bed! Her parents get very angry about that.

This morning, when she gets up, Zhou finds that she can't move her hands. Her parents take her to a doctor right away. After checking her carefully, the doctor says Zhou Yuan has got "mobile phone disease (疾病)". She'd better stop using her mobile phone right away, or she will have more problems (问题). Now Zhou uses her mobile phone for 30 minutes a day.

So, if you've just got a phone, watch out! Don't use it too much. Or you will get mobile phone disease. Remember if you find your arms and fingers start to hurt (疼), go to see a doctor right away. That's important.
