Tom walked into a shop. It had a sign（招牌）outside:" Secondhand（二手货）clothes bought and sold." He was carrying an old pair of trousers and asked the owner of the shop. "How much will you give me for these?" The man looked at him and then said, "Two dollars."

　　"What!" said Tom. "I had guessed they were worth at least（至少）five."

　　"No." said the man. "They aren't worth a cent more than two dollars."

　　"Well," said Tom, taking two dollars out of his pocket, "Here's your money. These trousers were hanging outside your shop. The list price（定价）of them was six dollars and a half. But I thought that was too much money, so I wanted to find out how much they were really worth."

　　Then he walked out of the shop with the pair of trousers and disappeared before the shop owner could think of anything to say.

Life in the future will be different from life today. Between then and now many changes will happen. But what will the changes be?

　　 The population (人口) is growing fast. There will be many people in the world and most of them will live longer than people live now.

　　 Computers will be much smaller and more useful, and there will be at least (至少) one in every room. And computer studies will be one of the important subjects in schools then. People will work fewer hours than they do now and they will have more free time for sports, watching TV and travel. Traveling will be much cheaper and easier. And many more people will go to other countries for holidays.

　　 There will be changes in our food, too. More land will be used for building new towns and houses for all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep, so meat will be more expensive. Maybe no one will eat it every day. Instead they will eat more fruit and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier. Work in the future will be different, too. Robots will do dangerous and hard work. Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a problem.
