    Imagine a house made of glass in the forest. You can watch the sunset(日落) in the house every night. A young artist couple made that dream come true. Nick and Lila built such a house. They made the whole thing by hand for only $

    500. Why did it cost so little? Because it's mainly made of old windows.

    Nick and Lila traveled around the country collecting windows from old houses and yard sales. They only had to buy a few new windows to complete the wall. Another cost saver—Nick's family happens to own a piece of land in West Virginia, so they built on that land.

    The crazy couple gave up their jobs and spent months just building this glass house in the forest. It sounds like a joke. Wouldn't we all love to drop everything and build a glass house in the middle of the forest, right? I'm crazy about the house and the way they made it.

    I love what Lila says about the house. "I never thought I could build such a house. When you build something like this, you feel great. Nick and Lila say the light in the house changes during the day. If you have time, you can spend the whole day just looking out of the windows, watching the light and paying attention to all those little changes. They feel a sense of satisfaction.

    1. (1) Where is the house?
    2. (2) How much did it cost to build the house?
    3. (3) Did the couple buy a piece of land for building the house?
    4. (4) How long did the couple spend building the house?
    5. (5) Why do you think the house makes the couple satisfied? (本小题答案限定在15个词之内)
