Terri Bolton is a dab hand when it comes to DIY (do-it-yourself).Skilled at putting up shelves and piecing together furniture,she never pays someone else to do a job she can do herself.
She credits these skills to her late grandfather and builder Derek Lloyd.From the age of six,Terri,now 26,accompanied Derek to work during her school holidays.A day’s work was rewarded with £5 in pocket money.She says,“I’m sure I wasn’t much of a help to start with.But when Derek built our family house about eight years ago,I was heavily involved(参与),painting the rooms and putting down the flooring throughout the house.It took weeks and it was backbreaking work,but I know he was proud of my skills.”
Terri,who now rents a house with friends in Wandsworth,South West London,says DIY also saves her from losing any deposit when a tenancy(租期) comes to an end.She adds,“I’ve moved house many times and I always like to personalise my room and put up pictures.So,it’s been useful to know how to cover up holes and repaint a room to avoid any charges when I’ve moved out.”
With millions of people likely to take on DIY projects over that coming weeks,new research shows that more than half of people are planning to make the most of the long,warm summer days to get jobs done.The average spend per project will be around £ 823.Two thirds of people aim to improve their comfort while at home.A fifth wish to increase the value of their houses.Though DIY has traditionally been seen as male hobby,the research shows it is women now leading the charge.

(2023·湖北武汉5月模考)
Back in 1958,I was crazy about the Norfolk and Western 746.The smooth bullet-nose engine with its orange and yellow lines and shiny streamlined black tender(车厢) seemed to have cast a spell on me.
Together the engine and tender measured a little shy of 2 feet—enormous by the toy train standards of the day.Even better,the 746 had a working headlight and smoker,and its tender sang high.
Unfortunately,the amazing 746 also had an amazing price—$50,equal to about $450 today.That was far more than my grandfather could afford.Instead,I had to be content with his little Lionel plastic,which was SIX INCHES shorter than the 746 and had no headlight,no smoker or no sound! But that was the best that my grandfather could give me at that time.
Years passed,and I was in my 30s.Complicated sound systems and computer controls dominated toy trains.I never gave a look.My interest in toy trains,I firmly believed,had faded,nor did my admiration for the 746,since my grandfather was not with me.The 746 was never called to mind.On an ordinary day,however,I happened to see the 746 outside the window of a train show.Just one look,I could not look away.Childhood memories that I tried to hide in the depths of my heart raced through my mind,happy or sad.
That day I took the 746 home and placed it in the centre of the room,and let my childhood dream sing its way around me.Smoke rose out from the engine and the soft song sounded from its tender.It seemed as if I could see the soft light in grandfather’s eyes and hear his cheerful laughter.
语篇解读 本文是篇记叙文。文章通过描述作者自年少时到成年后对一辆玩具火车的情感变化,表达了他对祖父的思念之情。
5.Which best describes the 746 in the author’s eyes?
A.It was taller than the author.
B.Its price rose from $50 to $450.
C.It was the largest train in 1958.

6.How did the author feel when receiving his little Lionel plastic?
A.Visibly relieved.
B.Really excited.
C.Terribly shameful.
D.Slightly unsatisfied.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Instead,I had to be content with his little Lionel plastic,which was SIX INCHES shorter than the 746 and had no headlight,no smoker or no sound!”可知,在作者看来,这个小的Lionel品牌的塑料玩具和746相比差得太多,所以稍微有点不满意。故选D。

My husband and I always wanted to go to the Caribbean but didn’t know much about the islands or how we were going to afford it.By chance,a friend of ours in Australia mentioned “pet sitting” and that it is something you can do all over the world.
We quickly created an account on a pet sitting website and began searching for options.There were only a couple of sits available in that part of the world,but we tried our luck,sent a request,and to our surprise landed a three-month job in Grenada,so our year was going to be taken up with Caribbean pet sits.
Inspired by a Canadian couple,we decided to start our own travel blog.We began by writing about The Virgin Islands,highlighting the beautiful beaches.However,for every photo album of a beautiful beach,there were 10 photos of trash(垃圾).It was hard to ignore the plastic pollution issue,especially on such primitive and remote beaches.So,we began to share photos of the trash we saw and how much we could pick up on our daily dog walks.
The more we looked into plastic pollution,the more we realized the severity of the global plastic pollution.From that point,we used our platform to create awareness and highlight ways to say no to plastic and travel plastic-free.We changed our daily routines,our way of living,and even our diets to accommodate more organic foods and little to no plastic packaging.
It’s been over three years now and we continue to do what we can.This journey has led us to some amazing places,working with great brands and even organizing a country-wide beach clean-up campaign in Grenada.
Our aim now is to keep on going.We love connecting with like-minded people.It’s been amazing few years that was sparked by a conversation about pet sitting.Who would have guessed?

By the time I took Kicker home,I was living in a van(旅居房车),so he was thrown into van life from day one.At this point,I knew how to make him an outgoing and adaptable dog,and my life was far more adventurous than it had been...
Right out of the gate,I took him to ski touring,which is a lot like cross-country skiing but in wilder terrain.At first,Kicker would just stay nestled(依偎) in my jacket,but as he got stronger,he would run on his own for a little while before I carried him again.
We also went on some winter camping adventures in the high peaks of the Uinta Mountains,and we tried snowkiting.He ran around while I skied.He learned to speed-fly and kiteboard.One time he vomited(呕吐) all over the new cushions on my bed.Boy,that did stay smelly for days! Still,living in a van with a dog was great.With each new day,he got stronger and more independent.
I had dreamed of visiting Alaska since I was a child,so being able to share that trip with Kicker felt incredible.There’s something to be said about shared experiences and how they help develop a strong bond.Together we kayaked,snowmobiled,and even ended up exploring deep blue ice caves in Worthington Glacier.Kicker learned to come snowboarding with me in the mountains of Alaska.He would hike part of the way,and I would carry him the rest.I would always let him run next to me as I boarded,but I usually ended up putting him on my shoulders for the rest of the ride down—he had grown far too big to fit in my jacket.
Having a dog has been one of the most rewarding things in my life.For me,it’s about the time spent together exploring,sharing experiences,working through challenging situations,snuggling,and ultimately taking care of one another.

Throughout all the events in my life,one in particular sticks out more than the others.As I reflect on this significant event,a smile spreads across my face.As I think of Shanda,I feel loved and grateful.
