were the house of the futurę. Some of the ideas were really funny but I don't think (32) ..... of
them are now real. The TV came up from the floor but it wasn't colour and it wasn't as big
(33) ..... the TVs we have now. In the kitchen (34) ..... were robots and people (35) ..... eating

computers (37) ..... controlled the lights and heating but nobody had a Computer to play games on
or send e-mails and of course, telephones were still big and black and not mobile. So, when people
