we should continuously constrain available resources Malthus cited wars, famines, epidemics and other disasters as in the usual limitations of world population growth With recent advances

in science and technology, including improved agricultural methods and great progresses and

Super skyscrapers, underwater cities, 3D-printed homes, and holidays in space will all be a

reality in 100 years' time, according to the SmartThings Future Living Report The report

presented findings from a survey conducted by Samsung’s SmartThings company with a group

of experts on space, architecture, and urban planners Several futurologists and adults of

different occupations also took part in the survey

The experts suggest that in a century's time humans will be able to live in 'Earth-scrapers',

which will go up to 25 storeys underground They also believe that 'bubble cities' will be created underwater making the depths habitable for humans They say the way we live, work and play will be totally different to how we do these things today The authors of the report say that 25

years ago, people could not imagine how the Internet and smartphones would change our

lives They have revolutionised the way we communicate, learn and do daily things So, it is

understandable that the changes in the next century would be even more unbelievable

Researchers also questioned 2,000 adults about the predictions they thought were most likely

to happen in the future Respondents predict that in the future, few people will go to an office

but will work from home and have virtual work meetings instead People will have advanced 3D printers that will let us download a design for furniture or a food recipe and then 'print' the sofa, table or pizza at home There will also be less need for visits to the doctor We will all have a

home health capsule which will tell us what the problem is and give us treatment We will also

go into space for holidays and to get resources that we have used up on Earth A prediction that was missing was about the popularity of English – whether people would still need to study

Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions

Though called by sweet-sounding names like Firinga or Katrina, tropical cyclones are huge

rotating storms 200 to 2,000 kilometers wide with winds that blow at speeds of more than 100

kilometers per hour (kph)

Weather professionals know them as tropical cyclones, but they are called hurricanes in the

Caribbean Sea, typhoons in the Pacific Ocean, and cyclones in the Indian Ocean They occur in both the northern and southern hemispheres Large ones have destroyed cities and killed

hundreds of thousands of people

Tropical cyclones begin over water that is warmer than 27 degrees Celsius (80 degrees

Fahrenheit) slightly north or south of the earth’s equator Warm, humid air full of water vapor

moves upward The earth’s rotation causes the growing storm to start to rotate around its center (called the eye) At a certain height, the water vapor condenses, changing to liquid and

releasing heat The heat draws more air and water vapor upward, creating a cycle as air and

water vapor rise and liquid water falls If the cycle speeds up until winds reach 118 kilometers

per hour, the storm qualifies as a tropical cyclone

Most deaths in tropical cyclones are caused by storm surge This is a rise in sea level,

sometimes seven meters or more, caused by the storm pushing against the ocean’s surface

Storm surge was to blame for the flooding of New Orleans in 2005 The storm surge of Cyclone Nargis in 2008 in Myanmar pushed seawater nearly four meters deep some 40 kilometers

inland, resulting in many deaths

It has never been easy to forecast a tropical cyclone accurately The goal is to know when and where the next tropical cyclone will form “And we can’t really do that yet,” says David Nolan, a weather researcher from the University of Miami The direction and strength of tropical cyclones are also difficult to predict, even with computer assistance In fact, long-term forecasts are poor; small differences in the combination of weather factors lead to very different storms More

accurate forecasting could help people decide to evacuate when a storm is on the way

13 As stated in paragraph 1, tropical cyclones are storms with winds blowing at speeds of

A more than 100 kph B at least 200 kph

C less than 100 kph D no less than 200 kph

14 The word “they” in paragraph 1 refers to

A sweet-sounding names B wind speeds

C tropical cyclones D weather professionals

15 According to the passage, tropical cyclones are called typhoons in
