　　解析  
　　46.B [解析]该空格的前一句是"architects are trying to preclict(the houses of the future)"，从第2段起是对未来房子的描述。此处填"what will our home be like then?"最为合适，起到承上启下的作用。  
　　47.E [解析]根据第2段内容，可以看出此处需要填的内容和"families grow aldchange with children arriving growing up anclleaving home"有关，因此选E"The house of the future will llave to grow and change with the family"。  
　　48.C[解析]第3段讲未来的厨房是智能的，我们可以和厨房里的机器交谈，因此选C"And the machine will tell us that food we will have to buy and how to cook it"。  
" ~- q! P. b+ P  h! I. R# W　　49.D [解析]这一段讲房子可以自己改变颜色，所以选项D"You will be able to claangethe color of the wall easily"是正确答案。
