Cryogenics: Freezing the Future

Conversation - B2-C1 | Advance Level

Description

In this advanced lesson, learners will explore the controversial idea of cryogenics and what it means for the future of human life. The discussion will push them to examine not only the scientific and technological aspects, but also the ethical, emotional, and philosophical questions behind the dream of living forever. Students will practice expressing nuanced opinions, debating contrasting perspectives, and engaging in speculative “what if” scenarios. The goal is to expand their ability to discuss abstract concepts clearly and critically, while reflecting on personal beliefs about mortality and human ambition.

Questions list

1. Do you believe science will eventually conquer death?

2. What is the best age to live at forever, if you could choose?

3. Should governments regulate or even ban cryogenics?

1. If you could choose to wake up in 200 years, what’s the first thing you would want to see or do?

2. Is cryogenics more about hope for the future, or fear of dying?

3. If a close friend or family member wanted cryogenic freezing, how would that make you feel?

4. Do you think life has meaning if it never ends? Why or why not?

5. Do you think our planet has enough resources to support people living indefinitely?

6. Do you think humans are ready for a technology that might “cheat death”?

7. If humans could live forever, what would happen to creativity, ambition, or innovation?

8. Would you want your body to be preserved, or would you prefer memories and stories to live on instead?

1. Would you vote for research about living forever?

Get ready for an engaging 10 minutes where you'll receive valuable feedback from your tutor regarding vocabulary, pronunciation and grammar mistakes
