Hi, Yan! I hope you've found the photo album and eve-
rything is going to be ok with your school project. The pho-
tograph I'm sending was taken four years ago. Of course we
look very different today, but I haven't changed much. As
you can see I used to have longer hair, but I've had it short
since my 10th birthday. I think I used to look like a little girl,
but now I'm much taller and stronger.
Rosie has changed a lot! She used
to be short and fat. Now she looks
much fitter. Her hair used to be curly
and she used to have it shoulder-
length and now it's longer. And she
didn't use to have freckles, too. Now,
when she gets sun-tanned millions of
them appear. She used to be a lovely girl
and behave really well, but two years ago,
after she took up playing hockey, things
have changed. She used to be an ideal sis-
ter – so amusing and fun, but now she's
really boring. We used to go roller-skating
and watch horror films together. All she can
talk about now is boys and shopping And

What Life Will Be Like in 2100

Here is what I think about life in 2100.

Scientists believe that by 2100 the population of our planet will have increased by 3–4 billion people. Besides, life expectancy will probably reach 125, especially if we learn to make synthetic hearts, livers and other organs and find cures for all diseases. So the most important problem to solve will be the problem of food supply. In my opinion people will have to turn the oceans into huge farms where there will be plenty of fish and seaweed. Another significant problem will be controlling the weather. I hope people will be able to invent technology to stop hurricanes and tornadoes and to send rain where it is needed. I also think there will be fewer languages spoken in the world and all educated people will speak English and Mandarin.  I am sure humanity will find reasonable solutions to global environmental problems. For example, all industrial enterprises could be hidden underground far beyond city boundaries. Thick forests will grow above the plants. Workers will go there by high-speed electric trains daily.  

Perhaps my vision of the future is too hopeful, but I believe it is better to look to the future with optimism instead of negative ideas.
