Chinese athlete Liu Xiang,winner of gold medal in the men's 110m hurdles at the Althens Olympics,published his book,I'm Liu Xiang,recently in his hometown of Shanghai.

It seems that many people can't help comparing Liu Xiang with another Shanghai native,basketball giant(巨星)Yao Ming,who also recently published his book,A Life in Two Worlds.Manager Dai,the editor of the book I'm Liu Xiang,explained the differences between the two books as he saw them.Firstly,Yao's book was written mainly for Americans,while Liu's readers will be mainly Chinese.Secondly,A Life in Two Worlds was written in the third person singular(單數(shù))by an American writer who recorded Yao Ming's stories.I'm Liu Xiang was written in the first person and included many articles from his diaries.Lastly,according to Dai,Yao enjoyed the advantage of being born in a sporty,rich family,unlike Liu,who came from a working class family and therefore had to go through greater hardship(艱難)before becoming a world-known athlete.So if you enjoy reading about mental(精神上的)suffering and physical pain,read I'm Liu Xiang.If you want to practice your English,read A life in Two Worlds.

閱讀短文, 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容回答問題。(共10分,每小題2分)

It's March, 2050.
Frank and Mary Smith wake up in their comfortable house in the morning and switch on the bedroom computer to get the latest news. They used to read the Times, but changed to electronic newspapers many years ago.                                                
There is the usual news about space: another space flight has returned from Mars and scientists have discovered a new planet. Then they turn to business news: the US dollar has risen greatly in Shanghai, one of the world's leading business centers. Mary tells the computer to buy 5,000 dollars, and there is a quick response that it has been done.
As they watch the screen, Mary orders one of the household robots to make coffee for them. Frank disappears into the study to join a video conference with his partners around the world. He is a computer engineer, working for several companies. This is his third job: he used to be in marketing and then television.
Mary has a quick look at the shopping channels - the usual selection of electric cars, household robots and cheap travel offers - before picking up the video phone to talk to her assistant. She also has a job and she is doing medical research. Both she and Frank used to have an office desk in London, but in 2014 they decided to move to the seaside and work from home.
Frank and Mary have one daughter, Louise, who also has her own workstation at home. She goes to school only one day a week, mainly to play with other students. Classrooms disappeared in 2030 because there was no longer any need for them: communications systems have made it much easier to learn at home.
Louise, now thirteen, is studying Chinese at present, which has become a world language as
important as English. Louise has many Chinese friends. They communicate by computer.
According to the family doctor, Louise will live to at least 130. Her wish is to work for a
few decades (十年) and then spend her time on music and painting.
【小題1】Do Frank and Mary get the latest news on the computer in the morning?
【小題2】Who makes coffee for Mary and Frank?
【小題3】What does Frank do?
【小題4】What are the two world languages in 2050?
【小題5】What do you think of Louise's life in 2050? Why?
