What do you want to be?
What will the future be like? Experts say that
in 2050 people will get much older, robots
will do a lot of work and the climate may
change. Jobs in the future will change
too. We will need more doctors, more
care workers for elderly people and more
robot engineers. And we will also need
people who can stop the climate change!
Maybe in ten years time, there will be many
new jobs. You can still become a policeman,
a pilot or a movie star. But you could also
be a space pilot, a robot engineer or a
climate expert.
What’s your dream job for the future? Would
you like to make body parts for robots? Or
travel through space with a time machine?
Whatever job you’d like to do in the future,
we’ve got one advice for you. Choose
something you really love to do!!
