Every weekend in Britain, DIY shops and garden centres are always full of people. A large number of people spend their weekends doing improvements (改進)to their homes instead of having a rest.

DIY projects are very popular and there are lots of TV programmes which show people how they can improve their homes.

Some people like decorating better – putting up wall- paper and painting walls, also there are many other DIY projects that people decide to take on, from changing the new floor to making a new shower. They are not so difficult for them.

Unluckily, some people bite off more than they can chew (不自量力), and try to take on jobs which always go wrong in the end. For example, the shops often tell people that it’s not safe(安全的) for a person to do anything electrical (電的). However, many people don’t care about this advice and put themselves in danger.

Four ways to have a good school life

Your schooldays should be some of the best and happiest days of your life. How can you get the most from them, and be sure you do not waste (浪費) this great chance to learn?

Be active(積極的) at school . Don’t say things are difficult or boring. Take interest in school life and your school subjects. Join lots of activities. Put up your hands quickly in class. Go around the school with a big smile. If you are not working, you are wasting your time at school. Teachers cannot make everything enjoyable(令人愉快的).

Keep fit . If you don’t eat a good breakfast, you will be thinking about food in class. If you go to bed late and don’t have enough sleep, you will be sleepy in class. Play enough sports every day in order to keep your body strong.

Face the problem . Do not say you will do things tomorrow. If you get behind the class, it is very difficult to get back in front. You cannot finish the race if you rest all the time. Everyone fails some exams, loses some matches and has bad days. Don’t make small problems very big and important. Don’t forget to ask for help. You are young, and no one thinks you must de everything quite well!

Spend the weekends . Don’t waste time lying in bed on Saturday or Sunday morning. Go and play sports, get together with friends in the park to relax, or learn to play the piano. If you don’t want to go out, there are also a lot of things to do. You may read a book, practice English or help Mum with housework.

Follow our advice, and have a happy school life!
