Reading Comprehension: Unusual Homes Around the

Houses Around the World
There are some very unusual houses around the world. One example is the
igloo. An igloo is an interesting home in cold and snowy places like Alaska,
Canada, and SiberiaIgloo meanshouse in a language called Inuit. An igloo is a
snow house. People build blocks¹ from snow. Then they use the blocks to make
a dome. A dome is the shape of half of a circle. Inside the igloo, there is one
large room. Usually one or two families share the igloo. It is warm inside. There
is a cooking area, a sleeping area, a living area, and one door to go outside.
Another kind of home is a houseboat—a house on a boat. People enjoy living
on houseboats in many parts of the world. Modern houseboats come in many
sizes and styles. One old kind of houseboat is called a sampan. It is a boat of
wood. It is about 3.5 to 4.5 meters (11.5 to 14.8 feet) long. Families use sampans
for fishing. Some families also have very small houses on their sampans. There
are sampans in China and other parts of Asia. However, sampan houseboats are
unusual now.
In Mongolia, there is a traditional house called a yurt. It has a round shape. It
is made of cloth and wood. It's not heavy, so it is easy to move the yurt to
another place. Some farmers² choose to live in a yurt because they need to
move their home often. In the center of the yurt, there is a small stove and a
table. There are usually several beds and some rugs. The yurt is large and
comfortable.
