【解析】

试题分析：本文是一则海报。2050年8月，彭夫人和余先生写的关于酒店和住宅的海报。鲨鱼酒店建在水下，有五十个卧室，一个咖啡厅和一个购物中心；永远绿色住宅拥有“绿色”和“智慧”两大特点等等。

1.under the water 在……下面：under，故填：under the water。

2.Children 句意：When we were staying at the hotel recently, my children watched the fish outside their bedroom window. (B) They were never bored.最近当我们呆在旅社时，我的孩子们看卧室窗外的鱼，他们从不感到无聊。从句意可以推测出they指的是孩子们，故填：children,

3.every; want each每一，每个。其近义词是every；need需要，其近义词是want。故填：every; want

4.be; satisfied 原句句意：他们将会使每个人满意。把宾语everyone变成了句子的主语，原句改成被动语态，故填：be satisfied。

5.green; smart 由第四段的第一句：These houses are both “green” and “smart”中知，住宅的两大特点是green、smart。因此可以描述房屋的两个形容词是：green; smart。
