（2022·宁夏固原·八年级期末）What will the world of the future be like? There are plenty of people who are happy to give their opinion of what we will be doing in 2050. Here are two predictions about the world of tomorrow.
When we dream about the future, many like to think of owning a personal flying car. It has many advantages. We could fly at 480km per hour, avoiding traffic lights and busy roads. However, some people believe there will be problems with traffic. If the cars become popular, there is likely to be an air traffic jam. What will happen if the cars stop working? These are problems we must expect if flying cars become true.
Three-dimensional(3D) printing is another new technology. 3D printers are used to build an object. They build the object until it is complete. Car companies already use 3D printers to make life-size models of car parts, and medical companies use the technology to make man-made body parts. As we move into the future, 3D printing will change the way we shop, the way we treat sick people. The disadvantage is that it will be very expensive.
So, in the future, we might be able to fly to work or print out new shoes. Although there are some probl
ems to solve before this will be possible, we can certainly dream of a world where technology makes life easier and safer for millions of people.
