What is DIY? Why do many people like it? Yang Chen works for a computer business in Beijing. He enjoys his work, but it is not easy for him to relax after work. One day when he saw many toy dogs in a toy shop, he had an idea. “Why not make them myself?” Then he began to make model planes, model ships and something else. He has great interest in it because it brings him lots of fun and makes life colourful. So what is DIY? Yes, it is making or creating (創(chuàng)造) things on your own, with your own hands.

It may take much time, but some people, now known as DIYers—do-it-yourselfers, enjoy doing it very much. They enjoy it because it is fun. And they also say it helps them save money, too. What’s more, they think it is a good way to protect the environment (環(huán)境). It is a kind of green life. In fact, DIY is not a modern thing in China. Many people remember when it was once a way of life in the past. During the 1960s and 1970s, when there were not enough living things for people to live on, they had to use their own hands to do many things. If you wanted something, you had to do it yourself, and if you needed something, you made it yourself.

Do you think that French fries are really French? French fries are called “pommes frites” in France and they are not from France. French fries come from Belgium(比利時)originally. French fries are made of potatoes, and they are cut and fried. The fried potatoes are called French fries because they were first seen by Americans in Belgium, but they were fried in the French way.

During World War I, there were a lot of hungry American soldiers(士兵) in Northern France and Belgium. They ate French fries in Belgium. After the war was over, the soldiers went back home to America. However, they missed French fries so much that they made French fries at home. That’s how French fries were first introduced to America.

French fries were called Belgian fries once, but the name was finally changed to French fries. Sometimes French fries are just called fries.

French fries are one of the most popular potato foods in America. American fast food restaurants such as McDonald’s and Burger King have French fries on their menus. French fries are freshly fried, and usually served with hamburgers.

If you visit any fast food restaurant in America and order a hamburger, you will probably hear “You want fries with that?” Why don’t you think about the history of French fries a little while, and say “Yes, please. Thank you.”

閱讀表達

Many people like to watch others play games. They buy tickets or turn on their TVs to watch the games. Often they get very excited when “their” player or team wins.

Sports change with the seasons. People play different games in winter and summer. Swimming is fun in warm weather, but skating is good in winter.

Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for(從事)them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers. 3 What fun it is to jump into a pool or lake, whether in China or Australia! And think of people in cold countries. Think how many people love to skate in Japan or Canada.

4 Some sports or games go back to thousands of years ago, like running or jumping. Chinese wushu, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is 120 years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time. Water-skiing is one of the newest in the family of sports.

People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game together they often become good friends. Sports help to train person’s character. One learns to fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace(體面)
