Now write your own text (150 words) with the title:

What will life be like two hundred years from now?

In two hundred years, it would be 2 centuries later. I think the world will be quite modern two hundred years later, as we are progressing very quickly. This could have it’s own flaws as well. Mostly dependant on technology and similar things related to that. Pollution will double up, and global warming will get worse. Obviously, this isn’t very good, but what can we do about it? We can’t help ourselves, after all. The human population will also increase, which is also bad. Food will get more expensive (it technically already is) due to overpopulation or other reasons. In general, I don’t really know any good things that will probably happen in two hundred years since I’m not a fortune teller or anything similar, I’m just saying all of this as a prediction, as things that are very likely to happen to us in the future. That’s my prediction.

My prediction will probably happen very far into the future, but these are my thoughts.

I think that global warming will worsen a lot, and tons of animals will be either extinct or endangered. The human population will will double in size, and well, thats.. bad. The earth will eventually get closer and closer to the sun. AI’s will get smarter, and they’ll probably do most of the jobs and chores that humans are supposed to do, and there’s a flaw in that. They might turn against humanity due to overload of information, this is quite unrealistic and stereotypic. I also believe that Armenia won’t survive after a few centuries since its already crumbling apart by Azerbaijan and most likely Turkey will join in too. Slowly but surely, Armenia will be gone. We’re all supposed to be hopeful and fight for our country, but it’s not like all this hope will make us stronger. 80% of Armenians will most likely be in an entirely different country. We’ll have many more machines and modern technology.

how and what I eat

In the morning, around 7:20 AM to 7:30 AM, I try to have a small breakfast, I usually eat chocolate pudding then take my medication. But sometimes, I don’t have enough time so I don’t eat in the morning. When i’m in school, I try to buy food outside in the 20 minute break with my friends since it is the longest break we have in school. Sometimes if i’m hungry, we’ll buy something after school ends as well. I eat when I get home too, if my mother made anything of course. But if it’s not a school day, then I don’t really eat that much, maybe once or twice.

How do I relax after school?

When classes end, I stay at school until 4:45 PM, and my bus moves at 4:55 PM. I reach my house at 5:55 PM. I don’t have a routine, so I just sit somewhere to calm down after a long day. I help my family with chores, I easily get tired but I try my best.
