Welcome to our future life！

You get up in the morning and look into the mirror, you look young. In 2035, many people can live to be about 150 years old. So at the age of 40, you're not old at all. And your parents look the same age as you！

You say to your shirt, "Turn red." It changes(改变)from blue to red. In 2035, "smart clothes" can change the color or style(样式; 款式)as you like.

You walk into the kitchen. You pick up the milk, but you hear the voice, "You shouldn't drink that！"Your fridge(冰箱)remembers the information about the milk. It knows that the milk is not fresh. In 2035, every household appliance(家用电器)is like your secretary(秘书).

It's time to go to work. In 2035, cars drive themselves. Just tell your "smart car" where to go. On the way, you can call a friend with your watch. Such "smart technology(科技; 工艺)" is all around you.

So can these things come true? "All these can come true, even better, "says a scientist. I am looking forward to the new life.

More and more people around the world are joining in dangerous sports. Some people climbed the highest mountains; some traveled into unknown parts of the world; some sailed small boats across the largest sea. Now some people begin to look for new excitement.

Bungee jumping(蹦极) and motorcycle racing(摩托车赛) are quite dangerous sports. Bungee jumping only lasts(持续) a few minutes or even seconds. You jump from a high place, 200 meters above the ground, and there is a rubber band(橡胶带子)on your legs. When you jump down, the rubber band pulls you up. About 2, 000, 000 people around the world have tried bungee jumping.

Why do people join in these dangerous sports? Some scientists say that it is because modern life has become safe and it is not interesting. In the past, people lived in danger. They had to go out and look for food, and life was like a fight but was interesting.

Many people think that there is little excitement in life. They live and work in safe places, buy food in shops, and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill.

阅读下面短文, 按要求回答问题。

Giving gifts is a way of showing thanks or love, and it helps to build friendship. The rules of accepting gifts are different in China and in the West.

When Lucy, from the UK, gave a gift to her Chinese friend for the first time, he couldn't understand it. "He refused to accept it twice, and when he finally accepted it, he didn't open it. He just took it and put it away. After that, I never heard about it again. He never said he liked it or not.

In the West, it is polite(有礼，貌的；客气的)to open it in front of the giver and say thanks. When you get a gift, the giver hopes that you are excited and really like it. But it is different in China.Usually, people don't open the gift until the giver leaves. If they open the gift in front of the giver, the giver will think of them as impolite or greedy(贪婪的). For the same reason, the Chinese will refuse a gift twice or three times before acceptingit.If you are the giver, give it again until it is accepted after the third time.

Today, more and more young people in China are turning to Western(西方国家的)rules of accepting gifts. That's OK, but it would be better to follow Chinese people when it comes to getting gifts from elders.
