My uncle Sid is a famous scientist. He likes to make
lots of
predictions about the future. He says that
in
100 years some things will be
better
than now. For example, we won't
have to
do the dishes or sweep the floor because we'll all have robots in our homes. Also, we won't need to use paper money. We'll all use digital money
to buy
things. We'll have more free time, and traveling will be faster and cheaper than it is now. Maybe some people will
spend
their vacations in space stations.
