Ⅰ. words & phrases
So great is our (激情，热情) for doing things for ourselves, that we are becoming
increasingly less dependent on specialized labour. No one can plead (无知，不懂)
of a subject any longer, for these are countless do-it-yourself publications. Armed with the right
tools and materials, newlyweds gaily (从事，着手) the task of decorating their
own homes. Men, particularly, spend hours of their (空闲) time installing their
own fireplaces, laying out their own gardens; building garages and making furniture. Some
really (热心的，渴望的) enthusiasts go so far as to build their own computers.
Shops cater for the do-it-yourself craze not only by running special advisory services for novices,
but by offering (消费者；顾客) bits and pieces which they can (装
配，组装) at home. Such things provide an excellent outlet for pent up creative energy, but
unfortunately not all of us are born (能工巧匠).
现在我们自己动手做事的热情很高，结果对于专业工人的依赖越来越少了。由于出版了不
计其数的教人自己动手做事的书报杂志，没有人再能说对某事一无所知。新婚夫妇找来合
适的工具和材料，喜气洋洋地开始布置新房。特别是男人，常利用空闲时间安装壁炉、布
置花园、建造车库、制作家具。有些热衷于自己动手的人甚至自己组装电脑。为了满足自
己动手热的需要，商店不仅为初学者提供专门的咨询服务，而且为顾客准备了各种零件，
供他们买回家去安装。这些东西为人们潜在的创造力提供了一个绝妙的用武之地。但不幸
的是，我们并非人人都是天生的能工巧匠。
Ⅱ. reading & understanding
The writer decided to dismantle the mower because _____ .
(a) it was a Saturday and he had the time to spare
(b) he had discovered the cause of the trouble
(c) he thought it was a sure way of proving it would not work
(d) what repairs he had already carried out had not proved adequate
Ⅲ. translation & recitation
The worst thing about the do-it-yourself game is that sometimes even men live under the delusion
that they can do anything, even when they have repeatedly been proved wrong.
I was not surprised to find that the machine still refused to work after I had reassembled it, for the
simple reason that I was left with several curiously shaped bits of metal which did not seem to fit
anywhere.
