Read the paragraph. What kind of a house do you live in? Houses come in all different sizes and shapes. Some are of wood while others are of stone or brick.
Brick or adobe houses stay cool in the summer, yet are warm in the winter. The lightweight houses of Japan are designed to survive earthquakes.

The different kind of houses (and their uses) are...

I'm not sure if you missed information but based on logic I think the answer is an adobe house.

A lightweight house is designed to survive earthquakes. earthquakes and hot temperatures do not relate.

A stone house was not stated in the article but it wouldn't do better than a brick or adobe house.

A wood house would probably be very hot in a hot climate, or maybe even catch fire. Wood is a main source to make fire. It would most likely trap heat and/or make fire.

Adobe houses...

Adobe houses are houses made of soil, water, and sometimes straw. They are mainly used around Mexico. In Mexico, it is very hot, and the soil keeps out the heat. Also, I will add a picture of an adobe house. As you can see in the picture, the climate looks very hot. People build these kind of houses in hot places to stay cool.

third person

explanation:

note the usage of names and pronouns, "james" & "the old man". this alone can confirm it as third person, as first person uses "i" and the like, while second person uses "you" and the like.
