• This is my school in the future. On the way to
  school, every student can carry a laptop with
  them. No more homework written on paper, it will
  all be in the computer. Lift and electronic stair
  will be seen in the school. And TV screen will
  take the place of the blackboard. Students can
  hand in E-mail instead of pieces of paper which
  is easy to lose. School trips can be out of the
  country. And this is the school in my dream, and
  I believe that it will come true in the future.
