【解析】

這篇文章介紹了英國人十分熱愛的DIY的相關(guān)信息。

【1】句意：許多人總是把他們的假期花在讓他們的家更美麗上面。本句的主語是“人”，可以使用結(jié)構(gòu)：sb+spend+時間+doing意為“某人把時間花在做…上面”，主語是people，看做復(fù)數(shù)，所以動詞spend不需要做變化，故填spend。

【2】句意：如果有需要被修理或裝飾在房子周圍的東西，例如粉刷墻壁或安裝一個新淋浴器，他們會自己做這項工作。短語need doing意為“需要被做…”，這里是說“任何動詞被修理”，可以使用need doing結(jié)構(gòu)，動詞“修理”是repair，故填repair的ing形式是repairing。

【3】句意：如果有需要被修理或裝飾在房子周圍的東西，例如粉刷墻壁或安裝一個新淋浴器，他們會自己做這項工作。這里是需要填寫“他們自己”，是they的反身代詞，故填themselves。

【4】句意：他們和朋友們分享DIY的經(jīng)驗。這里分享的是“經(jīng)驗”，是不可數(shù)的經(jīng)驗，故填名詞experience。

【5】句意：有時候，人們DIY是為了節(jié)省金錢。這里是需要填寫頻度副詞“有時”，同時注意這是句首，首字母要大寫，故填頻度副詞Sometimes。

【6】句意：當(dāng)他們不能支付費(fèi)用的時候，他們盡力尋找方法來讓他們的家更好。這里是需要用一個單詞來表示“支付、買得起”，可以使用afford，can是情態(tài)動詞，其后用動詞原形，故填afford。

【7】句意：人們經(jīng)常發(fā)現(xiàn)造一件家具是不容易的，因為他們不能很好地理解說明指令。短語“一件…”是a piece of…，故填名詞piece。

【8】句意：所以他們可能處于危險中。短語be in danger意為“處于危險中”，故填名詞danger。

【9】句意：據(jù)報道，在僅僅一年里，在英國做DIY的時候，成千上萬的人受傷了，包括那些從梯子上摔下來的人。動詞hurt意為“弄傷…”，這里是說人們會受傷，也就是會被弄傷，需要使用被動語態(tài)be done，故此處填hurt的過去分詞hurt。

【10】句意：據(jù)報道，在僅僅一年里，在英國做DIY的時候，成千上萬的人受傷了，包括那些從梯子上摔下來的人。這里是補(bǔ)充說“包括…人”，故填介詞including。

本題第1題出現(xiàn)了spend表示“花費(fèi)”，現(xiàn)總結(jié)spend，cost，take和pay的區(qū)別：spend的主語必須是人， 常用于以下結(jié)構(gòu)：(1) spend time ／money on sth. 在……上花費(fèi)時間(金錢)。(2) spend time ／ money (in) doing sth. 花費(fèi)時間(金錢)做某事。cost的主語是物或某種活動， 還可以表示"值"， 常見用法如下：(1)sth. costs (sb.) ＋金錢,某物花了(某人)多少錢。(2) (doing) sth. costs (sb.) ＋時間,某物(做某事)花了(某人)多少時間。take常見用法有以下幾種： (1) It takes sb. ＋時間＋to do sth. 做某事花了某人多少時間。(2)doing sth. takes sb. ＋時間,做某事花了某人多少時間。pay的基本用法是：(1) pay (sb.) money for sth. 付錢(給某人)買……。(2)pay for sth. 付……的錢。(3)pay for sb. 替某人付錢。
