While she may be best known for her role as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films,Emma Watson would rather be known for something else—her mind.

The 18­year­old British actress intends to put her acting career on hold to pursue higher studies at a university after she finished filming the final installment,Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Watson,whose parents are both Oxford graduates,recently scored straight A's in her A­levels. She is now on a gap year before starting university.

Earlier this month,Watson applied to two of the top universities in the United States—Harvard and Yale. She admitted that Harry Potter series has brought her fame and financial security(经济保障).She has made more than £ 10 million so far,but now she “has a need to study”.

“I think the entertainment business is such a temperamental one. One minute you're up there and the next—nothing,”she said.

Watson is growing up in front of millions of viewers(观众).She was only nine years old when she started playing the role of Hermione. And the way she figured out how to deal with media attention is “try not to read too much of what is said and try to distance myself a bit from it”.

Watson has other interests. These include,interestingly,fishing and she has helped raise money for the Wild Trout(鳟鱼)Trust.

What might the future be like? Here are some predictions: things to come, things to go.

The Spring Festival, the most important Chinese holiday when everyone returns home, has caused headaches for millions of Chinese. More than 2 billion people travel at the same time, making getting travel tickets and the journey difficult. But in 28 years, Spring Festival travel may not be a problem at all. China plans to build more than 120,000 kilometers of railway and a fast transportation network that will serve 90% of the population by 2020. And because most of China will be cities, people will not have to go to other places to find a job, so it will no longer be a problem.

Newspaper will come to an end in 2043. In the future, digital(数字的) newspapers will be sent to personal web tools through Internet. Readers can discuss topics with journalists and editors. Information will move faster.

Oil is running out faster than expected. But scientists have found something else for oil as fuel(燃料). Coal, natural gas, solar power, nuclear power and even water can take the place of oil as sources of energy(能源).

Schools will go electronic(电子化). Computers will be important and popular among the students. Everything will be in the computer and students will not need to bring books to school. They will find information on the Internet. A computer will be the students’ library, schoolbag and connection to the outside world. There will be robot teachers, they will check homework on computers and communicate with the students’ parents through e-mail. And school buses will be like spaceships, comfortable and safe.
