A It's Friday morning in the year 2025, and he is getting late. He gets worried, watching the music video that is playing in the corner of his bathroom while he is brushing his teeth. How will he get to his office on time?
With a quick check, his smart puter tells him that the train which travels up to 400 miles an hour will be a bit late too. So he decides to let his small car, which uses clean energy, drive him. It's designed to know the way, and it will get him there without speeding, getting lost, or crashing.
Getting into his office chair, which changes colour to match what he is wearing, he picks up the morning newspaper of yesterday. Written on special paper which can be used again and again, the newspaper continues to rewrite itself with today's headlines. Now it's time for his big meeting. Oh no! He has left his handwritten notes at home. No problem. The smart pen he uses has copied what he wrote.
His watch which is also the video phone suddenly rings. His best friend's face appears on the screen. His friend asks what he is going to do this weekend.
“Are you going to wear your 3D glasses and play virtual (虚拟地)football with the US Olympic team？”
“No, no, ” he answers.
