34、rian house. Not an inch of space is wasted.When you step in through the front door, youre standing in the shower, on Britains only self-cleansing doormat(自动清洁门垫).

36、right at the back. “I dont even have to make the bed,“ Chan says. “I just put the cover down.“Chans business suits hang neatly on the wall over the bed. Daylight comes in through the skylight.

41、e farms. A few of them are as large as the smallest states in America. Often the nearest neighbors are many hundred miles away.The two-way radio is very important to people who live on these great Australian farms. It works much like a telephone. A person can listen to someone else talk and give an
42、answer.When these radios first came into using, the Australian government set up for them in some areas. At a certain time each day, the boys and girls turn on their radios and listen to teachers in cities miles away. Families on the large farms wanted to give news to their neighbors. “Round Robin (
43、知更鸟) Talks“ by radio were started to keep families in touch with each other. They could talk about who was going away or who was sick or who was getting married.

It is common that parents hurry the chi
