Name the technologies that are changing everyday life, such as robots, smart homes and clean energy.
Talk about the future with will, be going to and the present continuous.
Express possibility with might, may and could, and use the first conditional for results.
Compare today's devices with future ones and give reasons for your answers.
Explain how technology can help the environment, for example with solar panels and electric vehicles.
Discuss online safety, passwords and personal data in clear and simple sentences.
Read a short text about future technology and identify the main idea, the reference words and the writer's opinion.

'Will' is used for predictions, opinions, promises and sudden decisions that are made while speaking.
'Be going to' is used for a plan you have already decided on, or for a prediction based on evidence in the present.
The present continuous is used for a fixed future arrangement, especially with a time expression such as 'next week'.
'Might', 'may' and 'could' describe a possibility in the future, and all of them are followed by the base form of the verb.
In the first conditional the if-clause uses the present simple and the result clause uses will plus the base form.
Use less with uncountable nouns and fewer with countable nouns: less noise, fewer cars on the road.
Personal data is any information that identifies a person, so strong passwords and careful sharing always matter.
Renewable sources such as wind, water and sunlight are naturally replaced, unlike coal, oil and natural gas.

will + V1 (prediction, opinion, promise): People will use less paper.
be going to + V1 (intention or evidence-based prediction): We are going to recycle more.
Present Continuous for a fixed future arrangement: I am visiting my cousins on Saturday.
might / may / could + V1 (possibility): Robots might do dangerous jobs.
First conditional: If + present simple, will + V1: If we cycle more, the air will be cleaner.
Zero conditional: If + present simple, present simple: If you heat water, it boils.
too / enough + adjective: The screen is too bright for my eyes.
less + uncountable noun, fewer + countable noun: less noise, fewer cars

Adding 'to' after will, might or could. We say 'People will travel more' and 'Robots might replace us at work', because a modal verb is always followed by the base form of the main verb.
Using will inside the if-clause of a real condition. The condition must be in the present simple: the version with the present simple is correct, while the one with will is not.
Confusing fewer and less. Say 'less noise' because noise cannot be counted, and 'fewer cars' because cars are countable nouns in the plural.
Using the present perfect for a future plan. A future arrangement needs the present continuous or be going to; a sentence with the present perfect and next week is wrong.
Forgetting the -s with a singular subject. Write 'A robot is helpful' and 'Robots are helpful', because the verb must agree with its subject in every time.
Overusing a very strong modal. A sentence that says people definitely will ride flying cars is too certain for the future; might or may expresses the idea far more accurately.

Look for a time expression first; if you see 'next Friday' with a fixed plan, use the present continuous.
If there is evidence in the sentence, such as 'Look at those clouds', choose 'be going to' rather than 'will'.
After will, might, may and could, never use 'to' and never add -s; write 'will travel', not 'will to travel'.
In reading questions, underline 'This', 'These' and 'It', and then look for the noun in the sentence before the pronoun.
For an article about the future, mix predictions and suggestions so that your ideas sound balanced and realistic.
Check that the verb agrees with a singular subject: one robot is useful, but several robots are useful.
