Maral,

I would say:
1. We've already made plans for the summer. We are going to spend a week in France and the rest of the time at home.
2. Sceintists think that computers will change our lives completely in the 21st century.
3. It's going to be warm and sunny tomorrow.

Let's wait until somebody comments on your answers and mine.
