Read the text about changes in family roles. Fill in each gap with NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS from the text.
In the past, the roles of men and women in a family were different from they are now. Men would be the breadwinners, working outside the home to support their families, while women would be housewives. For example, in the 1950s, men worked full-time in manufacturing or other businesses to support their families. Women, on the other hand, devoted their time to domestic duties such as cooking, cleaning, and child-rearing. People at the time assumed that a housewife was in charge of various household chores. However, family responsibilities have changed over time. Both men and women can now choose their roles within their homes. For example, the wife can be the breadwinner while the husband manages the household and cares for the children, or both can work to earn a living. It may be complicated to describe the change. However, it is apparent that modern women are now actively involved in their homes as mothers, housewives, and even breadwinners.

Smart homes refer to houses equipped with modern gadgets and systems that allow homeowners to control them remotely through mobile devices like smartphones, tablets, or laptops. However, this would probably not work without sensors. Besides, with the help of artificial intelligence, smart homes could learn about the homeowners' behavior to anticipate their needs.
