    As for daily life, I think that we will be able to 1most of our shopping by 2and this will be taken to our homes, so3there won't be any4to go out to the 5. I'm sure that most of our homes will have a video 6so we will be able to 7the person we are talking to. We will also be8 holovision which will give you three dimensional( 三维的  ) life size picture 9your screen--this will replace television. 10important technology, there will be no more road accidents. Cars will be guided by computers so people will not have to do any more driving.

    I think most of our food will be in the form of pills and liquids which will have all the vitamins and protein(蛋白质 ) 11we need for a balanced diet. Only when we go out for social12 will we eat the same food as today, but we will 13be eating meat.

    About once a year our bodies will go into a health center for a service in much the same way as a car14 be repaired. So, for example, our veins( 静脉  ) will be cleaned out, our blood made pure, our muscles built up and so on. Any part that is15could be replaced by a new plastic part. We will all be much16by then anyway, because there will be more  17for us to use for exercise. Also a safe medicine will have been discovered which will allow people to lose or put on 18as they need. One exciting development will be the possibility of being deep frozen 19a period of time and then20some years later. I would be interested in that myself.

     "Get your hands off me , I have been stolen," the laptop, a portable computer, shouted. That is a new solution to laptop computer theft: a program that lets owners give their property a voice when it has been taken.

    The program allows users to display alerts on the missing computer's screen and even to set a spoken message. Tracking software for stolen laptops has been on the market for some time, but this is thought to be the first that allows owners to give the thief a piece of their mind.

    Owners must report their laptop missing by visiting a website, which sends a message to the model: a red and yellow "lost or stolen" sign appears on its screen when it is started.Under the latest version(版本) of the software, users can also send a spoken message.

    The message can be set to reappear every 30 seconds, no matter how many times the thief closes it. "One customer sent a message saying, 'You are being tracked. I am right at your door'," said Carrie Hafeman, chief executive of the comp any which produces the program, Retriever.

    In the latest version, people can add a spoken message. For example, the laptop's speakers will say:"Help, this laptop is reported lost or stolen. If you are not my owner, report me now."

    The Retriever software package, which costs $ 29.95 but has a free trial period, has the functions of many security software programs. Owners can remotely switch to an alternative password if they fear that the thief has also got hold of the access details.

    If a thief accesses the internet with the stolen laptop, Retriever will collect information on the internet service provider in use, so that the police can be alerted to its location.

    Thousands of laptops are stolen every year from homes and offices, but with the use of laptops increasing, the number stolen while their owners are out and about has been rising sharply.

    ​Other security software allows users to erase data remotely or lock down thecomputer.

    A four­-year­-old boy has become pen pals with Britain's Queen Elizabeth. Tom Stancombe started exchanging letters with the queen after he set free a balloon, carrying his name and address, at a school party and it landed in the grounds of Windsor Castle.

    The queen spotted the balloon and asked her personal assistant, Angela Kelly, to write a letter on her behalf.

    She wrote,“The queen was delighted to find that your balloon had traveled all the way to the gardens at Windsor Castle.”

    Tom, who proudly put the letter on his wall, wrote back to say that his great, great grandfather, the artist Petrus Johannes  Arundzen, had been commissioned (正式委托) to copy Dutch masters' on display at Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace.

    Angela at once replied that she would contact the Royal Collection to find out what had happened to the art works.She kept her word and two weeks later wrote to Tom to tell him what had happened to the etchings, explaining they now form part of the print collection in the Print Library.

    Angela then asked a favor of Tom, writing, "Would you be able to ask your Mummy and Daddy for me if they know anything more about your great, great grandfather.Royal Collection would love to know more about him."

    Along with his parents，Tom wrote back to fill in all the gaps about Petrus Johannes Arundzen.

    Although Tom's parents don't think there will be any more letters exchanged between the pair, they were touched that she had taken time to contact them.

    Tom's father said, "I don't expect we'll get another one, but I think it's incredible they bothered replying at all."
