READING COMPREHENSION ACTIVITY

 The world in 2050

Samuel, 27

I think a lot of things will change in 2050. India will overtake China as the first largest economy in the world, but the country will have many problems with its demographics. The world will also have a lot of problems with the pollution and the climate changing. We will need to find other resources, because there will be more than nine billion people on Earth in 2050. We will also need to build spaceships to travel to the Moon and to Mars, because we will have to take resources from these places. 

Lea, 25

Our world won’t be the same in 2050. We will improve our technology and everybody will be able to speak at least five languages. People will live longer and we won’t have health problems, because we will improve our knowledge on medicine. We will also live in peace and the different countries won’t have nuclear weapons anymore. We will also have a single world government as we already have the IMF (International Monetary Fund). I think 2050 will be a great year for mankind!

Steven, 29

I hope that the world countries will be able to overcome the different issues in 2050. We will live in peace and won’t have any wars anymore. We will be able to explore the space and to find other habitable planets. We will perhaps find other intelligent Beings on other planets in 2050.
