       No one knows when the first house was built and who was the first one to built the house. But the
houses are changing all the time.  
       (     )1. What will the house of the future look like? Could it have gardens on its walls, or a pool with
fish for dinner? Architects (建筑学家) believe that they may come true one day. The only thing for sure is
the houses will be as green as possible in the future.
       (     )2. Many architects in the world would like to build a house like a leaf, the surface of the house
collects sunlight during the day. The energy can be used to heat water, produce electricity, and even make fresh air for the room. The"root"(根) of the house is deep under the ground. It uses the soil to control the
room"s temperature.
       (     )3. Like a lizard (蜥蜴), changing color with the weather is the most important design of a lizard
house. When it"s in the bright sun, the cover of the house will turn white to protect it from strong heat.
During dark days, it turns dark and takes in as much light and heat as possible to produce energy.
       (     )4. This design is perhaps for the future of food. It has a garden on the outside wall of the house. People can plant tomatoes, carrots and green tea on them. So every morning, you just need to walk
outside and collect your meals.
       (     )5. Looking to the future isn"t the only way to be green. Sometimes, the old ways of building
houses can also help cut down energy use. For example, a chimney (烟囱) can be a useful air conditioner because it is easier for hot air to run out of the chimney.

    During the 1800s, African Americans worked long days in the fields of the American South. They sang
songs that they had brought from Africa while working. One person sang a line. Then a group of workers

and stomped(跺) their feet to the music.
    In the 1860s, the music changed greatly. African American music took new forms. It was also influenced by dance music, which had great rhythm(节奏). Banjos(班卓琴) became popular.

third line has different words.

       These days, most people in Britain and the US do not wear formal (正式的) clothes. But sometimes
it is important to wear the right thing. Many British people don"t think about clothes very much. When they go out to enjoy themselves, they can wear almost(几乎) anything. At theatres, cinemas and concerts (音乐会) you can put on anything you like: from beautiful suits and dresses to jeans and sweaters. Anything
goes, as long as you look clean and tidy. But in Britain, as well as in the US, men in offices usually wear
suits and ties and women wear dresses or skirts (not trousers). Doctors and business people always wear quite formal clothes. And in some hotels and restaurants men have to wear ties and women have to wear
tidy dresses.
       In many ways, Americans are less formal than British people, but they are more careful with their
clothes. At home, or on holiday, most Americans wear informal (非正式的) or sports clothes. But when
they go out in the evening, they like to look nice. In good hotels and restaurants, men have to wear jackets and ties, and women have to wear pretty clothes.
       It is difficult to say exactly (确切地) what people wear in Britain and the US, because everyone is
different. If you are not sure what to wear, watch what other people do and then do the same. You"ll feel
good if you don"t look too different from everyone else.
