Summary
Fill in the blanks to complete the summary.
Some people live in alternative homes to solve different problems of traditional
houses. For example, some homes use renewable energy resources because gas and
oil have limited quantities and cannot be used continuously. They get power by using .
solar panels or wind turbines . Many cities have overcrowding problems, so people living
near rivers or streams live on houseboats. Houseboat dwellers get utilities .
from a generator or water tanks on boats. Some building materials are bad for the
environment and are costly. To minimize these problems, some architects reuse existing .
materials when building houses or remodel old trains or school buses.
