Exercise 3: Match the texts (A-C) with questions 11 – 14 below. One text matches two headings.
Strange places to live in
A. The slide house, Japan
Did you love going down the slide in the playground as a child? Perhaps you secretly wish you still could? If so, then the Slide house in Japan is the house for you. Japan architects have designed an unusual three-storey house with a huge slide that connects each level. This fun house has two staircases on one side going up, and the slide on the other going down, and they together form a circular route around the central area of the house.
The house is in the suburbs of Tokyo, and it functions as a real family home.
B. The skateboard house, USA
Are you a skateboarding fan? Would you like to live in a house where you could skateboard everywhere? This is exactly what a former skateboard champion wants to build in California. It will be the first house that can be entirely used for skateboarding as well as living in.
A prototype of the house is currently on display in a French museum. It has three spaces: a living area, a sleeping area and a skateboard practice area. However, you can skateboard everywhere because the floor becomes the wall and then the ceiling in a continuous curve. You can also skate on and off the furniture.
C. The giant seashell house, Mexico
If you’ve ever wondered what it would feel like to live inside a seashell, then this house in Mexico City would be the home for you. This amazing shell-shaped house was designed and built in 2006. As strange as it looks, it’s a real home built for a family. The parents were tired of having a traditional house and wanted to live in a house that was inspired by nature.
All the walls and furniture in the house are curved and all the surfaces are smooth. There are round windows and doors, coloured glass walls and even flowers growing in all the rooms.
