【妙笔成篇】 Life in 2020 What will our life in 2020 be like? No one knows for sure but it’s certain that it will change a lot. In my opinion, in our life, mobile phones and computers will be more and more popular but they will be powered by solar or wind energy because more energy should be saved. Besides, we will wear clothes made of special materials, which can change into the colour and temperature we like. In 2020, I think some super-speed bikes will appear and cars using solar energy will be more popular. People will be likely to be living underground or on other planets. 　 In conclusion, life in 2020 will not be quite like what it is now. 【名师点评】 语言特色：①高级词汇主要使用了for sure, in conclusion, power等。 ②高级句式结构使用了过去分词作定语、动词-ing作定语以及be likely to等。 ③复合句主要使用了主语从句、状语从句和宾语从句。 整体评价：本文第一句说明了想象的时间和事情；中间部分描写了具体想象的内容；最后一句总结。简单句和复合句交替使用，使文章充满节奏感。想象也以现在的科学为依据，给人感觉在将来这些想象的事情会实现。 【要点拾遗】 1. predict v. 预言；预料 【语境领悟】 *Some people predict that China will be stronger in a few years. 一些人预测几年后中国将更强大。 *Unemployment is predicted to increase to 700, 000 by the end of the year. 有人预测到年底失业人数将上升到70万。 【归纳拓展】 prediction n. 预测，预言 make a prediction 预测 predictable adj. 可以预测的 【即学活用】用predict, prediction, predictable的适当形式填空。 ①The expert _________ that the talk between the two countries would succeed. ②Changes in the stock market are not, of course, __________. ③Making __________ is sometimes risky. predicted predictable predictions ④It is almost impossible to ______ the future accurately． A．speak B．predict C．warn D．say 【解析】选B。考查动词辨析。句意：精确地预测未来几乎不可能。speak说，后面接语言之类的词；predict预言，预测；warn警告；say说，强调说的内容。 ⑤Some economists ______ that the dollar will remain weak as economies abroad are expected to grow faster than that of the US.
