Cathy’s life in the future

Cathy never wakes up in the morning because she never sleeps. In fact, no one needs to go to sleep. Cathy can play
games all night, and she never feels tired. The first thing she does in the morning is to give her pet a food pill. Pets
are very important to our lives because they can be used to cure diseases*. After feeding her pet, Cathy studies by
herself. There are no schools. At lunch, she always flies a rocket* to her friend's home. She always stays there until
dinner.

* Vocabulary: diseases enfermedades; rocket cohete
