Transcript
Hi, name’s Jason. When I grow up, I want to be an astronaut, because I like reading about different planets and space travel. At school, favourite subject is science and I often go to the Space Museum near home. When I leave school, I think I’ll go to university and I’ll learn to fly a plane. Later, I think I’ll travel into space.
I don’t want to get married too soon, so I think I’ll wait until I’m twenty-seven. I hope partner will be a kind and friendly woman. I don’t want to be rich or famous, but I want to be important. I also want to live in a big city, not in a village or a small town.
I don’t think that the world will change very much. We’ll probably have electric cars and bigger, faster planes. I think that life will be easier and people will live longer. We’ll build space stations on other planets, but people won’t live there or anything like that.
