If you’re like a lot of people, you probably just throw them away. In some areas, it’s difficult to find people who can make repairs, and fixing things can be quite expensive. Also, some small objects are so inexpensive that it’s often easier to just buy a new one. In 2009, Martine Postma from the Netherlands decided there must be a better way. Her solution was Repair Cafes: places where people can take broken items. There they will find tools, resources and volunteer experts who are ready to help with repairs. Postma opened his first Repair Cafe on Oct. 18, 2009, in Amsterdam, and was a huge success. News of the cafe spread, and people began asking how they could start their own. In 2011, Postma set up the Repair Cafe Foundation. This nonprofit organization provides guidance to those hoping to begin their own neighbourhood repair group. Today, there are about 2,000 Repair Cafes around the world with meetings usually taking place once a month. Around 25 objects are repaired during each meeting. Everything is free, but donations are greatly welcome. The cafes bring people lots of good things.They not only provide help with repairs, they also strengthen community ties(加强社区联系). Neighbours get to know one another as they work together on projects. Moreover, practical knowledge is passed along and kept. Things are used to be recycled,not thrown away, meaning less rubbish in landfills(废弃物填埋场). Title: Repair Cafes Background ➢Many people throw away the things that (1)________broken around the house.
