My name is Jack Duncan. I’m an actor. I live in Leeds, a city in the north
of England. I love my job because I do so many different things.

Two years ago, for example, I appeared in a TV soap opera about a

family from the north of England. I played the part of the family’s
neighbour. They filmed the programme here in Leeds. It was great!

Then, last year I was in a play at the city theatre in Leeds. I played the
part of a police officer in a detective story. I did that every evening for
eight weeks. I was really tired at the end!

After that I appeared in another TV programme. This one was different. It

wasn’t a soap opera, it was a drama. I played the part of a criminal. I
enjoyed that, too.

At the beginning of this year, I went to America. It was really exciting! I got
a small part in a film called San Francisco. They filmed it in Hollywood. I
met a lot of famous actors and actresses. It was fantastic!

The world will be a very different place in the year 2050. Some scientists
say that because of global warming, the temperature of the world’s
oceans will rise by two to three degrees. This will mean that sea levels will
rise by more than one metre and cause enormous problems for towns and
cities on the coast.

The world’s population is now 6.7 billion, but this will increase to 9.2 billion
by 2050. There will be less food and water and this could cause serious
problems. If people don’t find new ways of growing food and producing
fresh water, life on Earth will be very difficult.

Some experts believe that by 2050 more than 80% of the world’s
population will live in cities. We will need to build houses and new
transport systems for all these people. All of this will cost billions of euros.

But not all the news is bad. Cold countries like Scotland and Finland will
be warmer. Grapes and oranges will grow in England and people will go
swimming in the North Sea!

a By 2050 most people will live in cities. T/F
