According to Ian Pearson, a futurologist, these are among the developments scheduled for the first few decades of the new millennium, when supercomputers will dramatically accelerate progress in all areas of life.
Pearson has【C1】______together the work of hundreds of researchers around the world to produce a【C2】______millennium technology calendar that gives the latest dates when we can expect hundreds of key【C3】______and discoveries to take place. Some of the biggest developments will be in medicine, including an【C4】______life expectancy and dozens of artificial organs【C5】______into use between now and 2040.
Pearson also【C6】______a breakthrough in computer-human links. "By linking【C7】______to our nervous system, computers could pick up【C8】______we feel and, hopefully, simulate【C9】______too so that we can start to【C10】______full sensory environments, rather like the holidays in Total Recall or the Star Trek holodeck," he says.
But that, Pearson points【C11】______, is only the start of man-machine【C12】______: "It will be the beginning of the long process of integration that will【C13】______lead to a fully electronic human before the end of the next century."【C14】______his research, Pearson is able to put dates to most of the breakthroughs that can be predicted. However, there are still no【C15】______for when faster-than-light travel will be【C16】______, or when human cloning will be perfected, or when time travel will be possible.
But he does【C17】______social problems as a result of technological advances. A boom in neighborhood surveillance cameras will, for example,【C18】______problems in 2010, while the arrival of synthetic【C19】______robots will mean people may not be able to【C20】______between their human friends and the droids. And home appliances will also become so smart that controlling and operating them will result in the breakout of a new psychological disorder-kitchen rage. [br] 【C6】
