Question

Live On Mars

Our planet (星球) ,the earth,is becoming more and more crowded and the environment is badly polluted. Some people think that we will have no places to live in the future. Don ’t be panic (驚慌的). Recently some scientists believe that we will live on Mars (火星) by the year 2100. Here is what life will be like on Mars in 2100.

Transport (交通) will be much better. It takes months to get to Mars today. But in 2100,the spaceship can travel at half the speed (速度) of light. It might take us two or three days to get to Mars.

Because none of us can live without food,water or air,scientists will develop plants that can be grown on Mars. These plants will produce (生產(chǎn) ) food and air that we need. However,can these plants produce water for us? There is still no answer now.

Life on Mars will be better than that on earth in many ways. Living in a large building with 10 bedrooms is even possible for people. Many people believe that robots will do most of our work,so we will have more spare (空閑的) time.

There will probably be no schools on Mars. Every student will have a computer to study at home. Ev-ery student will also have their own online teacher called “e-teacher”. It ’s really interesting,isn’t it?
