By our hands alone,
we can make a _______ world.
By our hands alone
1In modern times, growing economies(经济) and better technology have made life much easier. We can buy nearly anything we might need by using our phones when we shop online.
2However, this has brought new problems. For one thing, we are using up the resources on the earth. The seas are full of plastic bottles and bags. Forests burn and fall, and thousands of plants and animals are in danger. For another, many of us have forgotten how to make, to build, to repair with our own hands. With so many resources, we no longer know how to use our own skill and ability to live.
3DIY, or “do-it-yourself” culture, is perhaps an answer to this. By making all kinds of things on their own, people can find the value(价值) in DIY.
4Firstly, DIY is practical. Making things on your own is often cheaper than buying it in a store. And even if it’s not, it cuts down on waste(浪费). This is very important these days because we face environmental(环境的) problems like global warming (全球气候变暖) .
5Secondly, DIY activities help people find their true ability. Some people feel a great need to show their creativity(创造力). By doing so, they can make the world a better place.

Passage 2
Small place to call home
1Building homes is not easy. It comes at a cost – and not just money. Making concrete (水泥), for example, causes heavy air pollution(污染). 4% to 8% of the air pollution comes from making concrete. What’s more, bigger homes take up more space. This means there is less land for building parks or other green areas.
2To solve the problem, some people are trying to build their own homes. These small DIY homes are sometimes called “micro houses”, which are not only cheaper to build, but also better for our earth. And by designing their own houses, people can put their own style into the place they call home.
3Take Lisa and Tom for example. This couple from the US built their own small home. They call it Gypsy Mermaid. This house on wheels(轮子) can travel from place to place. It might be small － just 20 square meters in total － but it is both fashionable and comfortable.
4The couple made the whole house out of recycled and renewable materials, such as metal and trees. They made the most out of their small space by using clever designs. For example, they built drawers(抽屉) into the side of a staircase(楼梯).
5The house cost the couple just $15,000. They decided to build it after their children grew up and left home, giving them the time and energy they needed to change their lifestyle. Their home might not look very pretty, but it is certainly special.
