Now use your own answer structure to practice the following compare questions.

2. 
   Part Three Question Type 2: Predicting
   

Example:

“What will houses be like in the future?”

“Certainly, I’m sure that most people would agree that there will be a number of major changes related to this. Initially, I guess that we might begin to see houses that are much bigger. At the same time, I suppose it’s quite probable that we may have houses under the sea. And who knows, it could even be possible that we’ll see the arrival of houses on the moon.”

The answer lists 3 different predictions and each prediction is presented with a different future structure:

…I guess that we might begin to see…

…I suppose it’s quite probable that we may have…
…who knows, it could even be possible that we’ll see…


Now build your own “predicting answer structure”. Begin with an opening linking phrase:

Certainly, I’m sure that most people would agree that there will be a number of changes related to this.

I’m sure that in years to come we will see a number of changes related to this.
I reckon that in the not so distant future there are going to be a few imminent changes with regard to…
I imagine that in the near future, we will witness some major changes with regard to…


Introduce your 1^st prediction:

Initially, I guess that we might begin to see…

To begin with, I’d predict that we will most likely have…
Primarily, it looks quite probable that we are going to have…
First of all, I would envisage that we are going to have…


Use a sentence to describe your 1^st prediction:

“Initially, I guess that we might begin to see houses that are made of plastic materials, because there will be much cheaper and easier to construct.”
