Mandy is an English girl. She has a dream one day. In her dream, people's life in the future won't be the same as it is today.
In the dream, Mandy sees many airports on the roof（楼顶）. It is easy for people to go to other countries by plane. Mandy also sees many underground stations in the dream. Lots of people take the underground to work or to school. Because the underground runs fast and there's no traffic jam. It helps people save much time.
In Mandy's dream, many people are busy with their work. They don't have lots of time to do exercise. It's difficult to stay healthy. But there is a new way to help people be healthy.
People can take the small exercise equipment with them and they can exercise everywhere when they want.
Mandy also sees some robots at schools, in shops and at people's homes in her dream. These robots help people do many things. But some people may lose their jobs because of those robots. Their life will be more difficult.
All in all, the new changes in Mandy's dream help people a lot, but not all the changes are good.
Usually in school or in clubs, children can't ride a horse. But in Brixton, south London, there is a special club. There students are welcome to ride a horse.
The Ebony Horse Club is a riding school for children from poor families. It opened in 2011. Now, the club provides（提供）140 rides per week for children. A four-day riding trip in Wales costs £70 per person, but horse riding lessons at the club are only £7 for children. This is a lot cheaper.
"If the parents can't afford（承担得起）to pay, we still let the children ride," says Naomi Howgate, the manager of the club. Naomi is also a horse riding teacher. She spends two days a
week looking after the stables（马厩）and giving the children riding lessons". I teach them how
to tell if a horse is feeling happy or sad, how to walk up to a horse safely and how to build a good relationship（关系）with the horses. Anyone over 12 can be a young volunteer（志愿者） here," says Naomi. "Working here helps children with their horseback riding and life skills."
12-year-old Omari is a member of the club. "The lessons have taught me a lot. They've taught me to be caring, kind, and to be ourselves around horses," he says. Shaddai Mcleod is one of the club's youngest riders. The 9-year-old boy often rides after school. On Sundays, he likes coming to the club to look after the horses and clean the stables. His sister Zion is 13 years old. She works as hard as him. She says she is lucky to be a member of the club.

When I had something difficult to do, I liked to ask my mother for. But she always said, "Do it yourself, dear." I was not about this at all. I thought she was the laziest mother I had ever seen!
For example, one day, I decided to some friends to my home. My bedroom was not in order. Books were and I didn't make the bed. I asked my mother to help me clean it, but she still said, "Do it."
Because of my "lazy mother", I had to wash my clothes and my room. I had to help my parents do. I even had to go to the doctor by myself. It was difficult for me to do a good job, but I have learnt a lot.
As time goes by, I to understand my mother. She made me clever and hard-working. A good mother is worth 100 ! Do you think so?
Shopping is one of my pastimes（消遣）. My classmates and I usually go shopping when we finish our homework on Sundays. I like shopping, not because I want to buy something, but because I want to know what the new products are in the markets. I am the so-called"window shopper". Window shopping is full of a lot of fun. I don't need to spend any money and just enjoy the moment of looking at new fashions（时尚）.
When I need to buy some food and school things, I usually choose the supermarket, I can buy almost everything I want in the supermarket. The problem is that I have to go to every shelf to look for what I need and I always buy something I don't need.
Another way of shopping that I like is online shopping. It is becoming more and more popular in China. I usually pay by WeChat Pay or Alipay（支付宝）. If you want to buy the things, scan the barcode（条码）and type in your password. Then the shop owner will get your money. You don't even need to bring a wallet with you. Your mobile phone is your"wallet".
