IV Now, describe your house of the future, what do you think it will be like ? Use new vocabulary and structures!!!!                                        / 10 points

 My futuristic house will be ecological and smart. It will be built with wood and natural materials, surrounded by a pretty domestic garden giving me fresh vegetables and fruits.

To solve energy problems, my sweet home will consume just a little water and it will be heated by solar cells. I expect it to make me save money  and take into account global  issues like the end of an economy based on cheap petrol.

For the same reasons, my house of the future will be interactive, with a central computer controlling doors and windows opening, electric lights, all the kitchen equipments …

Anything in this house will be voice-activated to aim at my personal comfort and security.

But I won’t have screens everywhere, because I don’t want to live in Montags’ home?(Fahrenheit 451 of Ray Bradbury)
