Earth in 3000

A woman wearing a white plastic suit and strange shoes got out of the car and asked him if he was right. Her name was Glynis, and she was a doctor. James didn’t know what year it was, and when he heard it was the year 3000, he could hardly believe it. He told Glynis he was from 21^st century. She thought perhaps he had hurt himself and asked him to come to her office for an examination.

Glynis found nothing wrong with him. James explained what happened to him, and he asked if any sort of time machine had been developed so that he could get home. Glynis suggested they look up his name on the computer to see what information it might have on him. They found that the computer only had information on him up to the day he had begun traveling through time. Next to that

day it said “presumed dead”.

He asked Glynis if she could take him to his home town. Perhaps he could find where Dr. Applebaum used to live. Maybe there was a secret passage under his house. Glynis looked at him sadly. “That’s impossible, - she said – the world as you knew it has been destroyed.” She drove him to a place where he could find the old world. During the drive, she told him what happened. The Sun had melted most of the ice in the Earth’s polar areas, causing worldwide flooding. The Earth temperature had risen, and thousands of people had died. Finally, in 2300 the world government had helped build glass shields around the highest areas of the Earth to protect people from the sun and the water.

She took him to the edge of the glass shield where he could see miles and miles of water. There were video screens set up along a walkway which showed the Statue of Liberty, the Eiffel Tower, Big Ben and the Acropolis, all underwater. There was a large circular hole full of water nearby. There were pipes taking water out of it to a nearest factory. Every few minutes, the water was sucked out, then refilled from below. Glynis explained that this was how they got water from outside and changed it into clean, usable water. James went close to edge to look down into it….

1. When James heard it was the year 3000, he was

A. thrilled

B. amazed

C. horrified

D. sad

2. The information on the computer stated that James

A. was alive

B. had left the country

C. had been found dead

D. was thought to have died

3. The old world was underwater because

A. there had been an earthquake

B. the sea level had risen

C. there had been a rainstorm

D. the earth’s temperature had dropped

4. A large hole in the surface of the new world was used to

A. take water to nearest factory

B. send water to the old world

C. refill the pipes with water

D. communicate with the old world

Activity 8. WRITING.

Complete the sentences using prepositions for, at, of, in, of, with+the

verb in brackets as per example (1).
