问题                               Houses of the Future
    What will houses be like in thirty years’ time? No one really knows, but architects are trying to predict.【46】
    Future houses will have to be flexible. In thirty years’ time even more of us will be working from home. So we will have to be able to use areas of the house for work for part of the day and for living for the rest. Families grow and change with children arriving, growing up and leaving home.【47】Nothing will be as fixed as it is now. The house will always be changing to meet changing needs.
    Everyone agrees that in thirty years’ time we will be living in "intelligent" houses. We will be able to talk to our kitchen machines and discuss with them what to do. Like this: "We’ll be having a party this weekend. What food shall we cook?"【48】We will be able to leave most of the cooking to the machines, just tasting things from time to time to check.
    The house of the future will be personal -- each house will he different.【49】You won’t have to paint them -- you’ll be able to tell the wall to change the color! And if you don’t like the color the next day, you will be able to have a new one.【50】
    A. You will be able to change the color of the wall easily.
    B. The only thing you won’t be able to do is move the house somewhere else!
    C. And the machine will tell us what food we will have to buy and how to cook it.
    D. What will our home be like then?
    E. The house of the future will have to grow and change with the family.
    F. The kids might take their bedrooms with them as they leave.

选项

答案D

解析 前面提到了对30年后的房子的畅想,没有人会知道30年后房子是什么样子的,但是建筑家们正在努力地预测。由此可推断出此处应是一句总结性的问句。故选B。
