1 Read the text. Then tick (✓) the sentences T (true), F (false) or DS (doesn’t say). (10 points)
Imagine this: Mr Everingham is watering the plants in the garden and his son is kicking a football under the trees. Mrs
Everingham is cooking dinner in the kitchen. She can see the family outside. But when she goes to bed at night, she
sees a different part of the garden from the kitchen window, and when she gets up in the morning, the vista is
different again!
The Everingham family lives in a house in New South Wales in Australia. Their home has got three bedrooms, a
bathroom, a kitchen and a big living room. So what makes their house different from other houses? It’s circular and it
rotates!
There is a special computer to control the movement of the house. On a cold day the house moves, so the light from
the sun comes in the windows. When it’s very hot in the summer, the house rotates away from the sun. A day in the
Everingham house is never boring.
