No one knows when the first house was built and who was the first one to build 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 that 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 brisht 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.
A.Learning from the past B.Meals at home C.The lizard house D.Houses in the future E.The tree house F.The history of the houses |

Perhaps the most famous clothing brand name(服装品牌名称)in the world is Levi’s.Levi Strauss & Co.is the producer of blue denim jeans.Here’s how it happened.
In the mid 1800s many people went to California to look for gold.A young German named Levi Strauss traveled to San Francisco to help his brother on business.He sold canvas(帆布)to the workers for tents.But the workers said they needed pants more,because their pants were easy to wear out.Instead of selling his canvas for tent-making,he turned it into pants.These kinds of pants were very popular with workers.He was very happy and named the kind of pants“denims”.And in 1853 he founded Levi Strauss & Co.
Twenty years later the company began using a design with pockets.During the working,Strauss developed the process for putting metal rivets(铆钉)in the eans for strength.
On May 20,1873,they received the U.S.Patent No.139,121 for the process and that date is now considered the official birthday of“blue jeans”.
