14、having five days off from duty. Unluckily, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left. So I thought I would have to get a lift.I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally, a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said
15、that although he couldnt give me a lift, I could come back to his house for lunch. he noticed me standing for hours in the heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home. When we arrived at his house, he
16、 made us sandwiches. After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day, I saw an elderly man standing in the heat, trying to get a lift. I thought it was another chance to repay someone for the help Id been given over twenty yea
17、rs earlier. I stopped my car and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You havent changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same.”I couldnt remember where Id met him. He then told me he was the m

CWe spoke to Professor John Williams for his expert predictions(预测) on life in the future.“Well, the first thing to say is that I dont believe were all going to be living in tree houses and walking or cycling everywhere. We are going
22、to have to make changes, though.Unluckily, it looks that the weather may change a lot, with hotter summers and colder winters. At the same time, electricity for heating or air conditioning will probably become much more expensive. For these reasons, our houses will have to become much better insulat
23、ed(隔热的). People are already building so called “passive houses”, which have little or no central heating at all, depending on the body heat of the people who live there.Homes probably wont be as big, and so we will need more changeable furniture, such as sofa beds, and when we are not using our furn
24、iture we will be able to fold it away into wall shelves. Houses could have moveable walls so that the same space can be used in different ways.New technology will make us more self-sufficient. Kitchens may have fish tanks which provide fish to eat, and also produce fresh vegetables. The plants will
25、provide oxygen(氧气) for the fish. These tanks will be powered by household waste and create energy, which can then be used to run the family car-though we might not all have cars.Water will be more expensive and the home of the future will probably be designed to use much less. Washing machines and d
26、ishwashers might use sound waves to shake dirt off. We may even take showers using sound waves. What water we do use will be recycled and used again round the houses and private swimming pools will become a thing of the past.We will also certainly have robots in our houses, though they wont look lik
27、e the ones in films. There will probably be small robots designed to clean the fridge or open the windows.

31、ng, listening to music, talking with friends and so on. But studies have found that if we always use digital devices, that can be bad for our sleep, our study and work.To help people take a break from their always-on lifestyles, America set the National Day of Unplugging(拔去插头) in 2010 to encourage p
32、eople to put away their digital devices for 24 hours, and it is on the second Friday of March every year.As a result, many people find that the unplugged day seems longer than a typical day. “Without my phone, my breakfast was too short and I did not know what to do next,” one person of last years unplugging experime
