Reporter Sydney Tumer visits an eco-friendly house in the
backyard of a museum inago. The Smart Home uses green technology to
keep you informed of your energyfrough your television and
computer. It keeps track of when you enter and leave
and can turn the lights, television and music off when you exit.
To learn morethe eco-friendly house, read the following interview
with the museum coordinator.
It is a prefabricated, modular green house that was brought to
the museum and thenput together.
Because it shows how you can live a green lifestyle by using
modern technologythat makes your life easier and simpler.
Many materials were used and we made sure'everything was
eco-friendly andgreen.
In many different ways. For example we use the sunlight that
comes through thewindows to warm the house in the winter. we also
use a solar sun-oven to cookfood.
About five months. First, the modules were constructed in the
factory. Then it wasbrought to the museum. Then it took two months
to finish the interior.

The 150-foot tall statue, which is on a small island located in
New York Harbor, wasfirst opened to visitors on October 28, 1886.
The Statue of Libefiy was a gift from Franceto the United States.
It was given as a Symbol of the friendship between the two
countries.It is also a symbol of hope to millions of people who
come to the U.S. to find a better life.

The crown of the Statue of Liberty has never been open to
visitors.
Between September ll,200l and2004, only the lower pafts of the
statue were opento visitors.
Officials were womied about the staircase leading to the top of
the statue because itwas not wide enough.
To make the statue safer. officials decided to have lifts in the
statue to take visitorsto the top.
Officials have limited the number of people visiting the crown
at one time.
The statue was made by a French aftist.

(such as carrots, cucumber or:omatoes), low fat yoghurt or
cheese.
