Over the next 50 years, it will become hard to tell the difference between the human and the machine. All body parts will be replaceable. Computers will be able to recognize feelings and respond in a feeling way as the human brain does. They will then produce false people exactly like originals. We will then be able to create a machine duplicate of ourselves, so we will appear to be alive long after we are dead. We can also choose to live for as long as we want.

By 2070, once one of you is copied, you will just have to press control “D” and you will have two of you. If you want 500, select 500. Naturally, when duplicates are running around all over the place, there will be a food problem. Corrections will have to be made with how you eat. Your duplicates will have to combine vitamins with something we have in abundance(丰富). The most practical choice would be junk. Your corrected duplicate will be designed to eat junk like a goat. But don’t worry, your taste changes and sense of smell will be adapted, so you will really enjoy it. You will want to eat lots of junk. When it becomes possible to do a spirit move, they will figure out how to do them automatically. So you will be able to live within whichever duplicate you want, whenever you want and as long as you want.

Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country’s economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the well-being (health and happiness) of local inhabitants.

Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country’s economy can suffer.

On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel will lose money.

Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.
