minutes, the machine brushes my teeth, cleans my face, combs my hair, helps me get dressed and tells me
that it is time for breakfast.
Bob-my cook robot-is waiting for me in the kitchen with a tester fixed to a scale. I stand on the scale
and put my hand on the tester. Instantly, all values of my health appear on the LCD screen of the machine.
Bob prints out the results on a slip of paper and inserts it into the smart fridge nearby. Pretty soon, a long
beep sound is heard after all my health values have been checked, and my breakfast comes out of an
opening on the left side of the fridge. My meals always been prepared in this way - just keep me in good
health.

radio programming was different from what is it now. Children rushed home to school to listen to Story
hour. Someone read an exciting, or part of the story, while the childrens imaginations provided visual
images to fit the spoken ones. People listen to serials, stories that are broken into one-hour segments.
Because each hour ended with suspense, listeners had to tune in at the same time the next day to find out
what would happen. Families gathered around the radio at night to hear important news and to listen to
favourite programmes. Radio was an important form of home entertainment. However, because of the
television, radio programming has changed.
Radio stories have become a thing of the past because people prefer both to watch and to hear.
Radio is now a medium that is used more often in a car than a home. Because music and news are the
easiest types programmes to listen to in a car, they are the most common. Radio, in fact, has become the
music medium. It provides music for all tastes, from country-western to classical.
