English people like DIY. A lot of people always spend their holiday making their homes more beautiful. If there is anything that needs repairing or decorating around their homes, such as painting the walls or putting in a new shower, they will do the jobs themselves. They share DIY experience with their friends. More and more people show an interest in DIY. Sometimes people also DIY in order to save money. They are trying to find ways to make their house better when they can't afford the cost. So, it is not surprising that DIY is very popular.
DIY can be difficult. People often find it not easy to build a piece of furniture because they can't understand the instructions well. Sometimes the instructions are simple and clear, but the furniture itself is difficult to build. DIY can also be dangerous . People should learn much about DIY work before doing it. Unluckily, many people don't care about that. So they may be in danger. It is reported that in just one year thousands of people were hurt while doing DIY in the UK, including those who fell off ladders.

Taking good notes can help you do well in your schoolwork. But unluckily, most students don’t know how to take notes. Here is some advice.
Write down the key points. If your teacher writes notes on the blackboard, you can copy(抄写) them down. If not , write down the most important points. Different teachers give lessons in different styles. For example, some teachers may say lots of dates and facts in class, but only write the key ones on the blackboard. Other teachers may not write anything down, but they may repeat a certain date or a certain piece of information several times.
Don’t overdo(做得过度)it. You’ll go crazy if you try to write down every word in class. And if you are sure to get all the notes right , you might miss the important points. Some students learn better by listening , writing down the key points, and then reviewing(复习)the notes after class.
Raise your hand to ask. Don’t be afraid to ask the teacher to say something again. If the teacher is going too fast and you can’t catch what he says, just raise your hand and ask him. And your classmates will also be willing to hear the information again. If you feel shy about asking in class, you can ask your teacher after class.
Note taking gives your mind a chance to absorb(吸收)what you need to learn. It can help you not only do better in tests, but also develop good study habits.
