Lots of stores and supermarkets sell DIY things. TV programmers show people how to DIY. English people like DIY. There is a saying in UK-As Englishmans home is his castle (城堡). 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 enjoy the joy of DIY. Sometimes people also D1Y for saving money. They like making their house better without spending a lot of money. It is not surprising that DIY is so popular. DIY can be difficult. There is a huge market for DIY furniture（家具） which people need to get together themselves with a few basic tools. However, people often find it not easy to build a pieceof furniture because they cant understand the instructions（结构）. DIY can also be dangerous. For example, anything electrical should be done by a professional(专业的) worker. Unluckily, many people dont care about this warning 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. D1Y 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 andsafer for us to DIY. ( )51. How do many English people spend their holidays to the passage ?A. Making their homes beautiful.B.

It is easy to get on with someone who is down to earth. A down-to-earth person is the opposite of someone who acts important or proud (骄傲的， 自豪的). Down-to-earth people could be important members of society. But they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important. A person who is filled with his own importance and pride is said to have his nose in the air. Americans use another expression that is similar(相似的) in some ways to down to earth. The expression is both feet on the ground. Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality（现实）. He may have dreams, but he does not allow（允许） them to have influence（影响）on his understanding of what is real.The opposite kind of person is one who has his head in the clouds. Someone with his head in the clouds is a person whose mind is not on what is happening in real life. Such a person may be called a daydreamer.When we have both our feet on the ground, and when we are down to earth, we do not have our noses in the air. We act honestly and openly to others.
