A car that will be like in 50 years will be very different from present cars. Firstly, they will have various designs. They can be invisible and people can take then in a little bottle or pocket. So people will not use parking lots. And cars will change their shape, so if there is traffic they will change their shapes to be small or thin to fit in and go easily. It will prevent a lot of traffic problems. Secondly, they will use a lot of new technology. They will not use gasoline or other gases. Cars will be able to go with hydogen power, solar energy, and wind power. These cars will be better for the environment than any gasoline or other gases that make smoke. And they will have an automatic repair system. If they get in a car accident or have any problems, the car’s system will recognize that and repair it right away. And they will have automatic speech recognition, so people can talk with their own car. With this system, people can drive automatically and use all the equipment that is in the car easily. And if they are bored, they will be able to talk with their car. Thirdly, they will be free from some restrictions that are placed on corn cars. They will be able to go through water and the sky. And they will carry more people. They will make more seats if needed. A car in the future will be very different so much so that we cannot imagine it. 

In my opinion, a serious problem that teens face today is drinking alcohol. First of all, if they drink alcohol, they cannot control themselves well. They make mistakes, and they don’t realize what are they doing. They cannot walk, or they sometimes are violent. A second reason is that they get in accident easily when they are under the influence. In the book ‘Tears of a Tiger’, A group of teens got in a car accident and lost one of friends, because they drove the car after they drank. In the book ‘Chain Letter’, they also got in a car accident and killed someone, because they drove the car after they drank. Another issue is they influence other teens. After they drink, they recommend drinking alcohol to their friends. They encourage other teens and that teens are drawn in. So the problem spreads. Overall, there are many problems because of drinking alcohol, so we need to help teens say no to alcohol solutions to this problem.
