C) Reading Comprehension

5- Read the following passage, then answer the questions:
What determines يحدد the kind of home we live in? one of the things that strikes تجذب people who travel is that homes look different from one place to another. Yet, three factors عوامل - climate, available building materials and lifestyle أسلوب الحياة- usually decide يحدد the kind of housing a place will have.
People build homes that will protect them from bad weather and let them enjoy good weather. In very wet countries, homes are often built high off the ground to protect people from floods. Where the weather is very hot or very cold, people sometimes live underground. In places where the weather is mild, homes often have courtyards that are open to the sky. Some Middle East countries have homes with thick walls that keep people warm in winter and cool in summer.
Homes are built from materials that are easily available, and sometimes these can be very unusual. In hot, dry places people often use mud to build homes because wood is hard to find. The Eskimos often live in temporary مؤقتة houses of snow when they go on hunting trips.
Perhaps people's lifestyles are more obvious in their houses. Most of us think of a home as a permanent دائم place, but the Bedouins who travel from one location to another often live in tents that they can carry with them.

When the expert returned after the first crop, he was pleased to see the villagers very happy. The expert returned later to see if the second crop had been equally good.
