(8分)阅读理解Mica and her little sister got a tree house this year. Im Mica! I love my tree house! This $28,000 tree house is a gift from their parents. Almost three metres above the ground, the platform (平台) was built between two large trees. One of the things I really wanted was a little door within the big door. If you go up, youll find that there is a door handle, which is of the kids height. And there is an adult size door as well. I told the designer to make it feel like a secret hideout (躲藏处), said Micas mother Keenan.Bala Sundar and his wife came to America 20 years ago. Unlike Keenan and her husband, who bought a tree house for their daughters, the Sundars got one for themselves. We wanted to have a regular place where we can relax. So we bought it, he said. With beds, tables and windows, its a welcoming, comfortable space to spend a summer night.Both of these amazing tree houses were created by Dan Wright. Hes the founder of Tree Top Builders Inc., and has built more than 400 tree houses since he started the company in 2003.
