The film of this week is Life of Pi. Pi has been raised in a zoo in India. When his father decides to move the family to Canada and sell the animals to American zoos, they get on a Japanese ship. The ship sinks, and 16-year-old Pi finds himself alone on a lifeboat with a hyena, an orangutan, a zebra, and a tiger.
Soon, there’s only Pi and the tiger. They spend 227 days in the Pacific Ocean. Pi’s fear, knowledge, and wisdom keep him alive. Finally, they reach the coast of Mexico, where the tiger disappears into the jungle. The Japanese who question Pi don’t believe his story, so he tells a second one --- more normal, less interesting. But is it truer?

What would the future life be like? I think we will be able to travel faster and safer around the world and into space.Maybe one day we can work in Beijing,sleep in Chengdu and visit the moon for a holiday.
We will have new energy(能源)that doesn’t make pollution.Possibly,people will find ways to use cleaner things,such as sea water,to make energy without polluting the earth.
We will have machines that can copy everything in the future.Put a cake on the machine and it makes a new one.If the machine is like a faxmachine(传真机),we can send food and presents to our friends easily.
We will have clever robots that work for us,and then bring us usefulthings and take away our rubbish.Now we have to press a key or type a word to make a machine work.But in the future,if we think of something,the machine can make it for us.The machine can understand our ideas.
We will be able to go into computer games and films,and everything will feel real.We will be able to make our homes like forests or sunny beaches or anything we want.Perhaps,one day we will be able to collect our dreams and put them on DVDs.
