Before windows were used,old houses in Northern Europe and Britain
very dark.Their great rooms were high,with only
hole in the roof(屋顶)to let out the from
cooking fires.As time went ,people
began to make the holes bigger
as to have more light and air in their
homes.
The first English window was just a small
opening the wall.It was cut
long,to let in much light as
possible,and narrow ,to keep out the bad weather .However,with the window cut
long,
wind than light would come in.This is
it was called"the wind's eye".And the word
"window"comes from two ancient words for "wind"and "
".
