we forget. These smart homes will keep us secure, save us energy, and provide a more
comfortable environment to live in.
The future home will use 3.integrated (integrate) sensors to tell when you leave home
each morning, and then go into an energy－efficient mode all by 4.itself (it). Yourhome will also learn your daily routine and 5.preferences (prefer), so everything will
be ready for you when you get home each evening. In addition, your smart home
6.will be monitoring (monitor) your health for you every day. Your bed, for example,
will record how well you sleep every night. It will also be checking your body weight.
If you start to have sleep or weight problems, it will send a 7.warning (warn) to your
phone.
Smart homes will be able to prevent serious damage 8.from accidents. For example, if
a water pipe starts leaking, or if there is a short in the electrical wiring, your smart
home will detect it and provide you with the relevant information. This way, you will
be able to fix the problem 9.before your home becomes flooded or catches fire.
This smart technology is not a fantasy. Many of these new innovations are already
available 10.and being used in some homes.
