Every weekend in Britain, DIY shops are always very busy. Many people like making their homes better than relaxing. DIY projects are very popular in Britain and there are lots of TV programmes which show people how they can improve their homes.

Some people like easy decorating (装饰). They often put up wall-paper and paint walls, but there are a lot of different DIY projects that people decide to take on, from changing the new floor to fixing a new shower.

Unluckily, people bite off more than they can chew (不自量力), and try to take on jobs which end in DIY disasters (灾难). The shops often tell their shoppers that anything electrical (电的) should be done by an electrician. However, many people don’t care about this warning（警告） and put themselves in danger.

八年级英语单选题中等难度题查看答案及解析

Sometimes I really doubt whether there is love between my parents. Every day they are very busy trying to make money for my schooling.

One day, my mother was sewing a quilt(缝被子). I silently sat beside her.

“Mum, is there love between you and Dad?” I asked in a very low voice.

With surprise in her eyes, she stopped her work for a while. Then she said, “Susan, look at this thread(线). It can hardly be seen, but it’s really there. It makes the quilt strong. If life is a quilt, love should be a thread. Love is inside.”

I couldn’t understand her until the next spring. At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously. My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month.

After they were back, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road every day. They were so kind to each other and it seemed they were the happiest couple.

After two months my father still couldn’t walk by himself.

“Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day.

“Susan, don’t worry about me,” he said. I just like walking with your mum. I like this kind of life. Reading his eyes, I knew he loves my mother deeply.

Now I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life. Love is inside, making life strong and warm.
