TEXT 1
What would you like to see in your
home? Most people want a big television,
a comfortable sofa or a beautiful dining table.
However, some people spend their money
on a high-tech sink or the latest model of
lawnmower instead. In the last twenty years
people’s needs have changed a lot. Once,
people wanted a new wardrobe, or a better
shower for the bathroom. Today, we want
products that save time, like tumble dryers.
We also spend a lot more time in our gardens,
chilling out and having barbecues with
friends. But one thing is true, whatever we buy,
we are spending a lot more than before.

some great articles in it. The two I read are both
about (1) __________________ you can find
in people’s houses. The first article says that
people today (2) __________________ on high
tech gadgets than in the past. In the second
one, I read that there is a group of people
who show (3) __________________ in their
homes. The items are usually old, so they have
interesting (4) __________________ about
them.
Love, Ania
