     Last week I visited my friend Pete in the new home where he lives with his wife and daughter. Pete used
to spend his holidays travelling the world, visiting the Louvre in Pairs or watching animals in Africa. Nowadays
he prefers to spend his holidays and weekends making his house look more beautiful. Like hundreds of
thousands of other British people, he has discovered the joy of DIY (Do It Yourself), which means if there
are any things that need fixing around the house, he will try to do the job himself.
     As he showed me the new kitchen he put together by himself and the newly painted walls, I asked Pete
where he got the idea from. He told me that his favourite source of ideas was a DIY programme on TV.
     This got me thinking about the popularity of DIY programmes in the UK. Nearly every channel has at least
one home or garden makeover show and there's even a DIY satellite channel.
     I guess it is not really surprising that DIY programmes are so popular. Two common sayings in Britain
—" an Englishman's home is his castle" and "there's no place like home"-show how important our houses are to
us. With the recent economic downturn, many people can't afford to buy a bigger house so they are looking
at how they can make their house better without spending a lot of money. DIY is the perfect choice.
     But be careful! I read a report that said over 230,000 people were hurt while doing home improvements in
the UK in just one year, including 41,000 who fell off steps and 5,800 who were seriously hurt by tools.
     I won't be going down to the hardware (五金) store. I'd rather watch DIY on TV with a nice cup of tea!
1. The underlined phrase "put together" means _____.
A. painted
B. cleaned
C. built
D. designed
2. People in the UK _____.
A. care little about their homes
B. take DIY as an enjoyable job
C. like watching all TV programmes
D. have enough money to spend on houses

3. From the last paragraph we can infer that the writer _____.

A. thinks DIY is a good way to relax
B. likes watching DIY programmes
C. is becoming interested in DIY
D. has no plan to do DIY himself

　　Many children love to play with snow in winter．But Long Chuan has come to hate it．

　　This year his hometown suffered from snowstorms(遭受暴风雪)for nearly a month．The heavy snow stopped cars and trains, broke the electricity(电)tower and turned tap water to ice．

　　Every day Long Chuan had to walk several kilometers to carry drinking water．“I couldn’t ride a bike and it took me 3 hours to walk to school．I can’t remember how many times I slipped(滑倒)on the hard ice,”said Long Chuan．

     We’ve seen 3D movies, games, TVs and so on. Have you ever heard of 3D newspapers before? Yes, that’s what the Belgian(比利时) newspaper, La Derniere Heure, decided to do for its readers. This is Europe’s first 3D newspaper.
     It took the team two months to make the 3D newpaper. They printed 115,000copies of the special edition(版本) of La Derniere Heure. It was more than the usual number of printed copies.
Each of these newspapers comes with a pair of free 3D glasses. All the images(图像)and ads(广告) in the newspaper are in 3D but the text(文本) is as usual(和平常一样). Readers can get the best result by holding the paper 50cm away from the eyes.
     In fact, if people don’t wear the 3D glasses, the newspaper will be terrible to read because the imagines are not clear.
     Although the first 3D newspaper is very popular, they have no plans to continue with it because it costs too much.
