Can you imagine what the human body in the future will be like? Our class had a discussion about it. Tiantian, an AI (artificial intelligence人工智能) robot, also joined us. Here are our guesses.

{#blank#}1{#/blank#} Humans are now ten centimeters (厘米) taller than 150 years ago. So, in the future, people will probably be even taller. Why? Because most of us today have much better food than those in the past.

You must say that people will be stronger according to the first guess. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} With the development of science and technology, we won't have much physical work to do. If people get used to this kind of lifestyle, we will probably lose most of our muscles (肌肉).

Next, let's come to our hands and feet. We are already using our feet less, and our hands more. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} At the same time, our fingers and our eyes will both get better because they'll have to do more work together.

Here comes the most interesting one—it's very possible that people will have four toes (脚趾), not five. The little toe really isn't needed anymore. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} Let's wait and see.

Last but not least—people won't have as much hair on their bodies as now, since we don't need it to keep ourselves warm.

What do you think of our guesses? {#blank#}5{#/blank#} With the rise of AI, will we lose the ability of thinking independently?

A. But you're wrong.

B. Will all these things happen?

C. Let's start with people's height.

D. Will it still be there in the future?

E. So we can expect our legs will get shorter and our feet smaller.

 阅读短文, 从每小题所给的四个选项中, 选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。

Ben could hear strong winds outside his home in Alabama. Black clouds were making the sky very dark. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} The news on TV reported that a heavy rainstorm was in the area.

{#blank#}2{#/blank#} Ben's dad was putting pieces of wood over the windows while his brother was making sure the flashlights (手电筒) and radio were working. He also put some candles and matches on the table. Ben was helping his mom make dinner.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#}After dinner, they tried to play a card game, but it was hard to have fun with a serious storm happening outside. The family went to bed at 10 o'clock. {#blank#}4{#/blank#} He had to listen to some music to calm himself down. He finally fell asleep when the wind was going down at around 3:00 a.m.

When he woke up, the sun was rising. He went outside with his family and found the neighborhood in a mess. {#blank#}5{#/blank#}The family joined the neighbors to help clean up the neighborhood together. Although the storm broke many things apart, it brought families and neighbors closer together.

A. With no light outside, it felt like midnight.

B. Everyone in the family was busy.

C. Ben could not sleep at first.

D. Fallen trees, broken windows and rubbish were everywhere.
