Lesson 13 : Making Prediction and Future Development

A. Making Prediction
 We can use “will” and “be going to” to make prediction about things we are confident
will happen. “will” and “be going to” are called as “simple future tense”.
(Untuk membuat suatu prediksi yang kita yakini akan terjadi, kita bisa menggunakan
“simple future tense”, yaitu dengan menggunakan, “will” dan “be going to”.
1. Making prediction by using “will”
The pattern : S + will + V1
Example :
a. Many more people will join the Internet
b. Everyone will have his own PC
2. Making prediction by using “be going to”
The pattern : S + Be (is, am, are) + going + to + V1
Example :
a. Many more people are going to join the Internet
b. Everyone will have his own PC

B. Future Development
1. Smart Cards
 A smart card, typically a type of chip card, is a plastic card that contains an
embedded computer chip–either a memory or microprocessor type–that stores and
transacts data. This data is usually associated with either value, information, or both
and is stored and processed within the card's chip.
2. Robotics
 Robotics deals with the design, construction, operation, and use of robots, as well as
computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing.
These technologies are used to develop machines that can substitute for humans.
3. Virtually Reality
 Virtual Reality (VR) is the use of computer technology to create a simulated
environment. Unlike traditional user interfaces, VR places the user inside an
experience. Instead of viewing a screen in front of them, users are immersed and
able to interact with 3D worlds.
How do virtually reality work:
Seeing is believing. Or not, virtual reality tricks your brain into believing you are in a
3D world. The first way VR does this is with the stereoscopic display. This works by
displaying two slightly different angles of the scene to each eye, simulating depth
