A dream for many people is to have their own home. That isn't always possible now. Traditional homes cost a lot, and they cost even more to maintain.
Luckily, there is an answer to this problem. It's tiny homes. They're very popular in the US and other parts of the world. That's because they are much cheaper to buy.
Tiny homes are also cheaper to maintain. They use less water and energy. Also, they don't need much furniture, and they don't take a long time to clean.
Most tiny homes are on wheels, so people can travel with them. If people get tired of an area, they can just move their home to a new one.
For many people, tiny homes are quite perfect. However, they don't work for others. Those people cannot live in a tiny space with few closets and smaller appliances.
Also, it's not always easy to find a place to park a tiny home. What's more, the cost of moving one can be pricey. Would a tiny home meet your needs?

答案
1. A 词义猜测题。根据后文理解可知，人们把家搬到一个新的地方，说明他们对先前生活的地方感到厌倦了。get tired of是“对……感到厌倦”的意思，跟dislike的意思相接近。
2. B 组合选择题。根据“That's because they are much cheaper to buy.”“Also, they don't need much furniture”以及“... they can just move their home to a new one.”可知，便宜、易搬迁和不需要太多家具都是迷你房屋的优点。
3. C 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Most tiny homes are on wheels, so people can travel with them.”可知，大多数迷你房屋的下面都有轮子，所以人们可以带着它们旅行。
4. B 推理判断题。Nathan喜欢邀请朋友们到家中举办聚会，所以需要大的空间，所以他不想要迷你房屋；Emma没有太多家具和物品，她喜欢简单的生活，所以迷你房屋很适合她；Riley不爱打扫，所以迷你房屋对他来说是个不错的想法；Sammy和丈夫在家工作，他们需要独立的空间，所以迷你房屋对她来说不适合。
