听力原文： When you want to know more about someone you often ask "What do you do?" This means "What is your job?" It is a common question, and we do not think there is anything strange about it. But it is possible that in the future we will ask a different question. We might ask, "What do you play?."

Computers and such things are making jobs more automatic and less demanding. Scientists tell us that one day very few people will have to work. Our society will be run by computers. And so we will all have a great deal of free time. And then games will be more important than jobs.

Today games and play are a very important part of life. Today people are divided into social classes because of the type of work they do. To morrow they may be divided because of the types of games they play.

In the future, we may have "fun specialists", just as we now have specialists in different types of work. It would be their job to show us how to get the most fun and enjoyment out of our spare time. And our society may be made up of sub-groups, such as surfers, skydivers, joggers, skiers, etc Many of these sub-groups may rely on technology to provide the equipment fro their games.
