Question
Think of your own house. Is there something special in it – like a sloping roof as it rains a lot, or a courtyard where you can sleep when it is hot or where things are kept in the sun (for drying, etc.)? Make a drawing.

Solution
Yes, my house has a sloping roof. When it rains heavily the water slops down the roof. We also have a courtyard at the back of the house for drying things.
