Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 1 to 7.

I find it really exhilarating to think about the future. Technology is advancing so quickly that in 40 years, who knows what amazing things we’ll be able to do? Scientists say that by 2050, there will be over ten billion people in the world, and technology will have improved so much that we’ll have a lot more information about diseases and maybe even cures. We’ll all be living in eco-friendly houses, no longer burdened by exorbitant electricity bills. And can you imagine? We might even be able to go on vacations to Mars!

Our daily lives will be filled with new technologies that help us with things we hate doing now. We'll probably have robots in our homes called "House Robots" that will help us with household chores like taking out the trash, cooking, and cleaning the house. Even our kitchen gadgets like the fridge, cooker, microwave, and dishwasher will be "robotic” and send us emails or texts when food is expired or running low. The fridge will even have a camera inside, so when we're at the store, we can check what we need to buy.

They say that by 2050, we’ll have regular health check-ups at home using digital devices. These devices will scan our bodies to check if we're sick or if anything is wrong. If they find something, a "virtual doctor" in the machine will figure out what it is and give us treatment right away. If we need medicine, it will be ordered and sent to us automatically. If the health check shows that someone is overweight, it will send a message to the household computer to change their diet and schedule gym sessions. With such swift intervention, people will live significantly longer, as diseases and cancers will no longer pose existential threats. Moreover, rare medical conditions of today will be better understood and readily curable.
