Question

What is DIY? Why do many people like it?

Yang Chen works for a computer company(公司) in Beijing. He enjoys his work, but it is not easy for him to relax after work. One day when he saw many toy dogs in a toy shop, he had an idea. “Why not make them myself? Then he began to make model planes, model ships and something else. Soon he has great interest in it because it brings him lots of fun and makes life colourful. So what is DIY? Yes, it is making things on your own, with your own hands. It may take much time, but some people enjoy doing it very much. They enjoy it because it is fun. And they also say it helps them save money too. What’s more, they think it is a good way to protect the environment(环境). It is a kind of green life.

In fact, DIY is not a modern thing in China. Many people remember when it was once a way of life in the past. During the 1960s and the 1970s, when there were not enough living things for people to live on, they had to use their own hands to do many things. If you wanted something you had to do it yourself, and if you needed something, you made it yourself.

Times have changed and DIY also has different meanings.
