Writing Task II: The 21st century has begun. What changes do you think this new century will bring? Use examples and details in your answer.


Man, through the ages, has undergone many changes from the time when he
depicted a herd of mammoths on the walls of his cave to these days when he
can create beautiful pictures and even make coffee by use of computer
technologies without leaving his favorite chair. The 20th century made huge
steps in developing computer technologies and reached many goals that
made our life much easier. What should we expect in the 21st century?
First of all, I think that the pace of our life will speed up: we will move faster
from one place to another, from one continent to another using high speed jet
airplanes. Second of all, I believe that we will be able to do many things that
take much time now without leaving our house. Computers will be everywhere
including out clothes. Many people will have chips and mini computers
inserted in their heads to hold huge amount of information and have a quick
access to it.

But what will be the most amazing thing in the 21st century is the flights to the
outer space and Mars that will be available to all people. Scientists say that
Mars has many things similar to the Earth's. Moreover, they say that with the
help of modern technology people can artificially create conditions that will
allow people to live there on the constant basis.

To sum up, I am sure that many amazing changes will be brought by the 21st
century. Furthermore, I think that with the help of the contemporary
technologies people can do many things that were even difficult to imagine a
century ago. So, nowadays it is rather difficult and even impossible to imagine
all changes that will happen in the next decades.
