B
What’s going to happen in the future? Will robots control our planet? Will
computers become smarter than us? Not likely. But here are some things that
scientists say are most likely to happen in 10—30 years from now, according to the
BBC.
Bionic(仿生的) Eyes
They are no longer something only in a movie. People who are blind may have a
chance to see things clearly—by wearing bionic eyes. A blind eye can’t see things,
but a bionic eye can use a camera to “see” the environment and send information to
the mind. Now the bionic eye only allows people to see lights and unclear shapes. A
bionic eye with very clear pictures could be just in a few years away.
Digital Money
We used to pay with cash(现金) for everything we bought. Now we can use
Wechat Pay or Alipay to shop. Money is spent without seeing it. That means we are
already using digital money. People only need to take a smart phone wherever they
go. Using these ways is much easier and safer than carrying a lot of cash.
Self-driving Cars
Unlike a human driver, a self-driving car won’t be influenced(影响) by a phone
call or something outside the window. Technology has made it possible for the car to
follow the rules of the road strictly and keep a safe space from other cars. This can
greatly help to get rid of road accidents. You can even take a short rest while the car
drives itself.
