- I think people might stop using their cars because petrol will be too expensive.
- I think records shops will disappear and everyone will buy their music on the Internet because it will be more convenient and economical.
- I think most people will work from home and will use machines operated by computers.
- I don't think people will watch TV on their mobile phones because the displays will still be too small for watching videos clearly.

When I got home, I knew something was wrong. I walked into the house but I couldn't see anything wrong. I went into the kitchen but nobody was here. Then I heard something - a noise upstairs. Somebody was in the house.

Hi, Helen!
We had a really exciting time at the party last night - in fact at 3 a.m. we were still dancing! If you don't come to the next one you will be sorry! No headache excuses next time, OK?! Anyway, when I arrived, Paul was dancing with Abby! I was so surprised! Why was he dancing with her? Where was Ruth? Just then Ruth was walking with Luke! They were holding hands and I felt a bit disappointed because I really liked Luke. But then I met Luke's brother, Harry, and... WOW! But I will tell you about him tomorrow if I see you. Do you think you will feel better tomorrow? Listen, I must go now because Harry is going to phone in a minute - do you think he will ask me out tonight? Who knows - anything might happen!
Get well soon!
Love,
Emma

A: I don't know, but I'm going to scream!
B: Wait... look! There's nobody out there - it's only Flip!
A: What? The cat was trying to come into the house?
B: Yes, it was. It's embarrassing... Luckily, nobody heard us!
