      Matt Mason has seen the future-and it's fun. Mason likes thinking about how machines can make our lives
easier by doing the work we hate, such as cleaning. He shows a hard floor cleaning system (系統(tǒng)) that's built
into the wall: it will blow dirt to a part of the room where it will be collected by a vacuum (吸塵器). Then the
system will drop some cleaner on the floor and an arm will mop (用拖把擦) it up. "This may trouble you," says
Kara, an expert in Mason's company. "But you can program it to come on at 3 a. m., and it will just wet-mop the
floor for you."
                                                         
      When it comes to the kitchen, Bruce Beihoff, another expert at Whirlpool, is sure that in a few years, robots
will be doing most of the boring work, freeing us to relax. "More than just fun, future kitchens will be
environmentally friendly," he says. "A new system will be built in the house which can recycle energy (能量)
lost from your kitchen to make the whole home warm."
      "The fridge will be the center of the home," says Daniel Lee, a market expert. The fridge will have a touch
screen (觸摸屏幕) where you can watch TV, surf the Internet, check your e-mail, keep a shopping list and
order vegetables. "Your fridge is the first place you go in the morning and the last place at night," says Lee.
      Ever wonder why a 1.9-meter man and a 1.6-meter woman have to cook meals on counters (工作臺(tái)) of the
same height. "The height was decided over 50 years ago, according to the height of ordinary women," says Jane
Langmuir, an expert of cooking machines. "But times have changed. We have made a new counter where you
press a button and it moves to whatever height you want." At the same time, Ted Selker at MIT's Counter lab
has made the Dishmaker which lets you make dishes and bowls out of plastics at home. After each meal, the
dishes are changed straight back into plastics.
