I/ Read the following passage and answer the questions
The Bowler family was one of more than 400 families who applied to 1900 House, a reality TV show which took a typical family back a hundred years to see how people lived in the days before the Internet, computer games and even electricity
The Bowler family spent three months in a London home without a telephone, fridge, computers, radio, TV, fast food or central heating TV cameras recorded their day The Bowlers wore clothes from 1900, ate only food which was available in England at that time, and cooked their meals on a single stove which also gave them their hot water Paul Bowler still went to work every day (dressed in a nineteenth-century uniform), and the children went to school as normal They changed their clothes on the way to and from school and their classmates didn’t know about their unusual home life Joyce stayed at home, cooking and cleaning like a typical housewife of the time “I’m jealous, because if it’s 1900 or 2005 my husband gets the better deal,” she said “Everything takes three times as long, like the cooking and everything.” The stove took twenty-eight minutes to boil water, and cleaning the house and clothes without a vacuum cleaner or washing machine was a nightmare
So does Joyce think that people’s lives were better in the old days? “I think they had just
as many troubles and worries, and I don’t think their life was better or worse There were lots of things back then that I’m happy I don’t have to deal with nowadays, but on the other hand life was simpler.”
Eleven-year-old Hilary said, “We had a lot more time with our family, and it was hard being nice to each other all the time Having contact with your family all the time is really, really weird.”
