Q2. Children of the future will never be able to complain that there’s no one to play with. Equipped with 
virtual reality headsets, they will be taking part in global games, for example, in medieval jousting 
tournaments. Their opponents, selected by the computer, will probably live on the other side of the world. 
 
Q3. Cars of the future will take much of the strain out of driving. The intelligent navigation system will be 
able to choose the best route for you by monitoring an online traffic database for holdups, while the cruise 
control keeps a constant distance from the car in front. And if you exceed the speed limit, the speedometer 
will give a polite warning to you. 
Q4. Holographic conferencing and virtual reality meetings will allow people to interact with colleagues 
and clients via computer, without needing to leave the comfort of their own homes. This will also mean 
that a lot more people will either work freelance from home, or on flexible short-term contracts. The old 
concept ‘jobs for life’ will be a thing of the past.
Q5. In the future it will become harder to tell the difference between the human and the machine. All body 
parts will be replaceable. A computer will function like the human brain with the ability to recognize 
feelings and respond in a feeling way. We will then be able to create a machine duplicate of ourselves and 
transfer our spirit so we will be able to live for as long as we want. 
Q6. There will be great changes to the environment particularly because of the rising sea levels. Global 
warming is expected to cause oceans to rise by one meter, which will increase the risk of flooding. It will 
happen regardless of any future actions to curb greenhouse gases. Projected climate change will also tend 
to degrade water quality through higher water temperatures. 
 
Q7. We will not rely so much on cash as we do now. It will mainly be digital money, the inevitable 
medium of exchange for an increasingly wired world. We will no longer need to carry a wad of bills or 
fumble for exact change. Supermarkets will have iris recognition systems so the money for our groceries 
will automatically be transferred from our bank accounts as we’re standing at the checkout.
