DIY which means Do It Yourself, is quite popular in UK. Lots of stores and supermarkets sell DIY things. TV programs show people how to DIY.
English people like DIY. There is a saying in UK---“An Englishman's home is his castle”. Huge numbers of people spend their holidays making their homes beautiful "castles". If there is anything that needs fixing around their homes, such as painting the walls or putting in a new shower, they will do the jobs themselves. They share DIY experience with their friends. More and more people have discovered the joy of DIY. Sometimes people also DIY for saving money. With the economy becoming worse at present, many people cannot afford a big house. They are looking at how they can make their house better with less money. It is not surprising that DIY is so popular.
DIY can be difficult. There is a huge market for DIY furniture. People need to get together pieces of furniture with a few basic tools. However, people often find it not easy to build a piece of furniture because they can't understand the instructions. Sometimes the instructions are very simple but the furniture itself is difficult to build. One thing is for sure, though most DIY projects are started with the best ideas, many of them may not get finished. DIY can also be dangerous. For example, anything electrical should be done by a professional worker. Unluckily, many people don’t care about this warming and put themselves in danger. It is reported that in just one year over 230,000 people were hurt while doing DIY in UK, including 41,000 who fell off ladders.
Therefore, DIY can bring us fun and help us save money, but it is not always as easy as it is thought to be if we bite off more than we can chew. Maybe factories should make products that are easier and safer for us to DIY. All in all, it is a very good and suitable thing for many people.

Millions of young people are writing blogs. Millions of other people are reading them. The word "blog" is short for "web blog".
Many popular websites now offer free, easy ways to create personal web pages. Websites like Facebook and MySpace are some of the most popular sites about people's daily activities. They give people a place to write their ideas and opinions about how they think of others' ideas.
Blogs offer young people a place to show their writing and feelings. They can also help people communicate with each other. But blogs can become dangerous when they are read on the Internet by millions of people all over the world.
Recent studies show that young people often give out their names, age and where they live on the Internet. That may not be safe for them. This personal information puts them at the risk of being searched out by dangerous people who want to hurt them. Students can also get into trouble when they put others' information on their blogs. As a result, many schools have banned the use of blogging websites on school campus. Many schools have also begun teaching parents about the websites. Parents should know what their children are doing online and should read their blogs to make sure they are not giving out private information. One way to keep away from their problems is to use programs so that blogs can be read by "friends only". People can read the website only if they know a secret word chosen by the blogger.
1.Blogs give people a place to .
A. help others B. share their life with each other
C. fight with dangerous people D. learn lots of things
2.What does the underlined word "banned" mean in the passage?
A. 禁止 B. 表扬 C. 创办 D. 消灭
3.Why have many schools begun teaching parents about the websites?
A. To help parents know about their children's studies.
B. To help parents learn how to give their personal information.
C. To help parents understand their children's ideas.
D. To help parents keep their children safe on the Internet.
4.Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Facebook and MySpace are two popular sites about people's everyday life.
B. Many young people often give out their personal information on the Internet.
C. It's OK if you put others' personal information on the blogs.
D. One way to keep safe on the blogs is to let your blogs only read by your friends.
