Ⅰ. words & phrases
So great is our passion (激情，热情) for doing things for ourselves, that we are becoming
increasingly less dependent on specialized labour. No one can plead ignorance (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 embark on (从事，着手) the task of decorating their own homes.
Men, particularly, spend hours of their leisure (空闲) time installing their own fireplaces, laying
out their own gardens; building garages and making furniture. Some really keen (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 consumers (消费
者，顾客) bits and pieces which they can assemble (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 handymen
(能工巧匠).

(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.
自己动手的例子中最糟糕的是，有时甚至是男人尽管接连失败却还误以为自己什么都行，
原因就是要面子。
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.
等我装完后，那台割草机仍然一动不动，对此我倒并不感到吃惊。原因很简单，因为还剩
下几个形状奇特的零件似乎哪里也装不上去。
