試題解析:本文大意：DIY的意思就是自己動手做，在英國非常受歡迎，在很多商店和超市出售DIY產品，電視也播如何DIY的節目。如果在家周圍有什么事情需要修理，例如刷墻或安淋浴，他們會自己做。他們和朋友分享DIY經驗。越來越多的人喜歡DIY，并發現了DIY的樂趣。很多前買不起大房子，就想如何能不花很多錢建更好的房子。有一個大家具市場，需要人們自己用一些工具把家具組裝起來。有時候指令簡單、清楚，但家具本身難以組裝。據報道在英國組裝時一年就有超過23萬人受傷，包括從梯子上掉落。DIY能給我們帶來很多樂趣，能幫我們省一些錢，但是如果我們做太難的事情，并不總是如我們認為的那樣簡單。也許工廠應該生產對于我們來說更容易更安全的產品。
