I.阅读小报模板完形填空
What will man be like in the future? How about in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make a 1 , of cour, but we can be sure that he will be different from 2 he is today, for man is slowly 3 all the time.
Let us take an example. Man, even 500 years ago, was 4 than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. 500 years is a relatively short period of 5 , so we may guess that man will 6 to grow taller.
Again, in modem world we u our 7 a great deal. Even so, we still 8 only about 20% of the brain’ s capacity (容量).As time 9 , however, we shall have to u our brains more and
more --and finally we shall need even larger ones! This is likely to 10 a physical change, too. The head, 11 , the forehead, will grow larger.
Nowadays our eyes are in 12 u. In fact, we u them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear 13 . But over a very long period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger.
On the other hand, we 14 to make less u of our arms and legs. The, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, 15 our fingers will grow more nsitive (敏感的) becau they are ud a great deal in modem life.
But what about hair? This will probably 16 from the body altogether in cour of time becau it does not 17 a uful purpo any longer. In the future, then, both xes are likely to be bald(无发或少发的).
Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very 18 creature to look at! All the same, in spite of all the changes, future man will still have a lot in 19 with us. He will still be a human being, with 20 and emotions similar to our own.

We often think of future. We often wonder what the world would be like in a hundred years’ time.
Think of space，perhaps a permanent(永久的) station on the moon will have been t up. Perhaps people will be able to visit the moon as tourists. Cheap rockets for space travel will have been developed，permitting long journeys throughout the solar system(太阳系). When that time comes，people will be taking holidays in space and visiting other planets. Great progress will have been made in medicine，too. Perhaps a cure will have been discovered for the most terrible of all dias—cancer. Pollution is a problem we must solve. In a hundred years’ time it will have been controlled.
All the world will have been developed — even Antarctica. There will be large cities in Antarctica. We already have supersonic(超音速的) flight，but in a hundred years’ time we will have supersonic land travel as well.
We will have ud up most of earth’s land to build our cities， so floating cities will have been built. The Japane already have plans for cities of this kind. And there will be cities
under the a. The first of the will have been completed.

Cloud computing will be in u by about 80 percent of about 600 companies. The trend suggests that data management and storage are moving to cloud computing llers on a large scale.
Touting(兜售)cloud computing as a way to get rid of the costs of buying and maintain in on-site information-technology equipment, llers offer it in the form of Software AsA.Service(SAAS), a delivery model in which software applications are delivered to cust
omers over a web-bad network. SAAS can rve the needs of entire companies through huge, web-bad platforms. As cloud computing rapidly becomes the delivery channel for software developers of all shapes and sizes to get their products to market, offering applications in a cloud is now the rule not the exception. A.relatively small number of llers are able to offer SAAS to big companies that want company-wide cloud computing, and only the llers need apply. Although market-share data are hard to come by, the list of company’s large enough to offer cloud-computing on this scale is short: Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Salesforce, Rackspace and not many others.
