In a classroom, Garry Golden is sharing his ideas with some university students. Golden is a futurist. Futurists are scientists who study the world today and use that information to make predictions about the future. Some futurists study the environment. Some study human society(社 会 ) . Golden studies transportation—the science of how to move people from place to place. Golden says there will be fewer cars in cities in the future.

"Cars take up a lot of space," Golden says." We have to build lots of parking lots(停 车 场 ) for them , but having so many parking lots is not efficient. Much of the time the parking lots are empty." Golden says cities will make new laws to limit(限制) the number of cars in the future.

"Buses have the same problem as parking lots," Golden says. Sometimes they are full, and sometimes they are empty. Golden says in the future people can use phones to send messages when they want to take the bus. And buses can change(改变) their ways to pick them up.

"Traffic is a big problem for cities today," Golden says." But there are so many things we can do to improve it. I believe that in thirty years we will live in a very different world."

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项

Many people believe that, by the year 2100, we will live on the planet—Mars(火星). Here is what life could be like.

First of all, transport should be much better. By 2100, spaceships can travel at half the speed of light. Secondly, humans need food, water and air to live. Scientists should be able to find plants that can grow on Mars. These plants will provide us with food and air. We could easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space. To prevent this, humans on Mars have to wear special shoes to make themselves heavier. Life on Mars will be better in many ways. It is possible to live in a large building with many bedrooms. Then, robots will do most of the work, so we can have more time for hobbies. Every student can study, do their homework on the computer and take exams in online schools. Each student will also have their own online teacher called "e－teacher".

However, in some ways, life on Mars may not be better than that on the earth today. Meals will probably be in the shape of pills(药片) and will not be as delicious as they are today. Also space travel will make many people feel ill.

A. There will probably be no school on Mars. B. It might take us two or three days to get to Mars. C. There is a problem for us to live on Mars. D. Food will not be the same. E. First, people will have more space. F. Life on Mars will be interesting.
