Speaking Assignment

(Impression of the future presentations in class)

I was interested that other groups have written like same ideas about the environment of ten years from now.
Though the assignment was vague, it is a wonder that many groups have written like same ideas.
And also, I was interested in many various ideas besides about idea of the environment.
For example, the car will fly in the air, robot will help us and so on.
Their ideas are surprised me, and I admire it.

Each of our group members thought about ten years from now, and we discussed it.
Then, we published our ideas.

I was tense up as usual, but audience were very tender, so I could publish peacefully.

Speaking Assignment

(what do you think the world will be like 10 years from now? Think about different aspects like the environment, technology, popular culture, etc.)

Ten years later, I think that technology will be advancing more than now.
For example, we invent high- end medical instrument, and we will find cure of disease.
We need identification card on various occasions now, but it may prove with cellular phone.
The television may has special function.
For instance, when we watch cooking program, the television may give off smell of cooking.
I think that the world become liable to live in ten years .
But, on one hand, I think oil price rise, and the environment will be broken.
Then, I think that global warming may advance.
In Japan and in the world advocate energy saving, and people in the world trying to protect the environment.
But movement like this began in recent years.
The environment will not be improve more then years.
Of course, even now we shouldn't give up it.
We should continue to protect the environment forever.
