Forget about them!In 2030, some of the most popular jobs could be a vertical farmer, space pilot or body part maker, according to a new report. A report was recently commissioned by the U.K.government. It was conducted by asking a unique group of future thinkers to list what science and technology jobs they think would be most popular by the year 2030. They were asked to consider advances and developments which may be achieved between now and then. As you may expect, the results are quite intriguing. For example, computers and robots are expected to transform the fields of medicine and farming. In medicine, the invention of machines that grow limbs and organs will allow for new jobs in professional sports and the military. On the microscopic level, “nanomedicine” would allow scientists to treat cancer and other diseases at the cellular level.Listed below are some of the more interesting occupations you or your future children may be interested in pursuing.Space pilots, tour guides and architects: Space tourism will allow for space pilots, tour guides and the architects that will allow them to live on the moon.Vertical farmers: The future of farming leads straight up into the sky. Vertical farms in densely populated areas could significantly increase food supply.Classroom avatar manager: Intelligent avatars will replace classroom teachers andprofessors. Human interaction will still be needed, but only to properly match “teacher” to student.46. Why does the writer suggest forgetting about careers in law and engineering?a. They will become more difficult in 2030.b. They will totally disappear by 2030.c. There might be better careers available in 2030.d. A government job will pay well in 2030.47.

I love to pump my tunes whenI have guests round for parties, but I would never make anyone listen to my music if they saidthey didn’t like it. There’s quite a lot of bad language in the rap music I listen to, but there’s also a lot of eloquence. People hear the violent lyrics and imagery and think that gangster rap is just mindless gibberish. But many of the best emcees are highly literate and greatstorytellers. It’s really no different from Hollywood. You don’t hear people saying Robert De Niro or Al Pacino are bad guys in real life just because they play gangsters on the big screen.So why does everyone assume the rappers are thugs and criminals just because they paint these pictures of urban life?17.

Reality TV show is a genre of television programming that documents real-life situations and often features previously unknown people as the cast of characters. The genre usually

It then became a social phenomenon in the late 1990s and early 2000s with the global success of the series Survivor and Big Brother. These shows and a number of others became global franchises, giving rise to local versions in dozens of countries. Reality
television as a whole has become a permanent part of television programming. In the United States, various channels have set up themselves to focus on reality TV. Most notably, MTV, which began in the 1980s as a music video channel, changed to a nearly all-reality format beginning in the early 2000s.
