What will man be like in the future? We can only make a guess, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today.

In the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain’s capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change too the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.

Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weak and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger.

On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.

But what about hair? It will probably disappear from the body altogether in the course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, both sexes are likely to be bald（秃的）.

Perhaps all these give the impression that future man will not be attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.

Title: Man in the future

Once upon a time, there lived many doves in the jungle. One day they went out in search of food. They flew long distances   41  did not get anything to eat. All of them were now completely   42.
A young dove asked the King Dove, “Your Majesty, please   43  us to take some rest.” The king replied, “Be  44 , my dear young fellow. We shall   45  get something to eat very soon.”
The young dove started flapping his wings with   46  and soon left everyone else behind. After some time, he   47  and spoke to others,  “Hey, I see lots of   48 down there.”
Hearing this, all the doves started   49  the scattered grains under a banyan tree.  50   the King Dove said, “It is too good to be true. There is something wrong. Don’t rush towards the grains. It may be a 51 .Some hunter must have laid a trap.”
But the doves were extremely hungry. The   52  of the grains was too tempting (诱惑人的). Without giving a(n)   53  to the king’s advice, they swooped down and started eating the grains. After having a big   54  , they tried to fly away only to   55  that they were caught in a net.
The King Dove said, “I told you before that it is a trick of some hunter.”
All of them felt ashamed and   56  . One of them said to the King Dove, “Oh, Your Majesty, please save us.”
So the King Dove said, “All of you must try to fly with the   57  at the same time and in the same   58, all of you.”
Just then they saw a(n)   59  show up. The King Dove said, “Now all of you, fly together.”
So all the doves flapped their wings together and flew with the net. The hunter stood dazed. He couldn’t   60  what he had just seen.

What will man be like in the future — in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.
Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time, so we may suppose that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain’s capacity(容量). As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and finally we shall need our brains more and more, and finally we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring a physical change too: the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.
Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over long period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger.
On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.
But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.
Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and motions similar to our own.
