Our Future Homes
What kinds of homes will we live
the future? Nobody can be sure,
architects, and scientists are
new ideas now.
Some architects are thinking about
whole cities under huge glass domes. Of course, complicated heating and
systems will be necessary to control the climate in the domes.
, there will never be any rain
snow, and the temperature will be always
.
Perhaps everyone will live in vertical（立体的）
. High rises are so large that they can contain all the necessities of life. Since vertical cities will use
land than horizontal cities, and provide homes for more people, they will be
for small countries that have
populations.
Another idea that will be helpful to
countries (and island countries) is
the
city. Monaco has already built homes, stores, and offices
the water of the Mediterranean Sea. And a Japanese
has made a plan for constructing buildings on bridges over Tokyo Bay.
There are some people who think we will go back to living in
. But the caves of the future will be quite
the caves of the Stone Age. Computers will control light and climate. Farms and parks will be on the land
the cave city. When people want to go to the country or to a park, a short ride in
will take them there.
