DIY is becoming more and more popular among young people. But many beginners make common mistakes when they start doing DIY. Here are some useful tips for you to avoid problems.
First, don’t start with a difficult project. Many new DIY lovers choose a big job at the very beginning, like making a wooden shelf. When they can’t finish it well, they will feel upset and lose interest. It’s better to start with small and easy works, such as paper cards or cloth bags.
Second, prepare all the tools and materials before you start. It is very bad if you have to stop your work again and again to look for things. Make a list of what you need and check twice before you begin.
Third, don’t ignore the instructions. Some people think they are smart enough to do it in their own way. But they often make mistakes and have to fix the mess later. Always read the instructions carefully and make sure you understand every step.
Finally, always put safety first. Sharp tools like scissors and knives may hurt you if you are not careful. You should also wear gloves when you use paint or glue. Never do dangerous electrical work by yourself.
1. Why shouldn’t beginners start with difficult projects?
A. Because they cost too much money. B. Because they need more time.
C. Because they may lose interest easily. D. Because they are not popular.
2. What does the underlined word “ignore” probably mean in Chinese?
A. 忽视 B. 重视 C. 抄写 D. 理解
3. Which of the following is a safety rule for DIY?
A. Use scissors as you like. B. Do electrical work alone.
C. Wear gloves when using paint. D. Keep tools around you casually.
4. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Different kinds of DIY projects. B. Tips for DIY beginners.
C. The fun of doing DIY. D. Common mistakes in DIY.
