Over in Class B, Fiona looked around. She missed Bella. Fiona sat with some kids she did not know during reading time. But then at the break, they went to the playground together. They laughed and played the whole time.

Bella's Dad picked her up from school that day. When she came out of her classroom, she saw him standing with Fiona's Mom. Then Fiona came out of her classroom. She came running over. Fiona and Bella were so happy to see each other. \ “Yes?” the girls said.

“You are in different classrooms, but we should make sure you still get to see each other. Bella, why don't you go over to Fiona's house this afternoon? Then next week, she can come to our house.\

DIY, which means Do It Yourself, is quite popular in the UK. People can buy DIY things in lots of stores and supermarkets and learn how to DIY on TV.

English people like DIY. There is a saying in the UK - \（城堡）”. A large number of people make their homes beautiful \there is anything that needs fixing around their homes, such as painting the walls or putting in a new shower, they will do the jobs themselves. They share their DIY experience with their friends. More and more people have found the joy of DIY. Sometimes people also DIY for saving（节省） money. They are looking at how they can make their house better without spending a lot of money. It is not surprising that DIY is so popular.

DIY can be difficult. There is a large market for DIY furniture. People need to get the furniture together themselves with a few basic tools. However, people often find it not easy to build a piece of furniture because they can't understand the instructions. Sometimes the instructions are simple and clear, but it is the furniture that is difficult to build. One thing is for sure most DIY projects are started with the best ideas, but many of them may not get finished. DIY can also be dangerous. For example, anything electrical (电的) should be done by a professional worker. Unluckily, many people don't know it and put themselves in danger. It is reported that in just one year over 230,000 people were hurt while doing DIY in the UK, including

（包括） 41,000 who fell off ladders（梯子）．

So DIY can bring us fun and help us save money, but it is not always as easy as it is thought to be if we bite off more than we can chew. Maybe factories should make products（产品） that are easier and safer for us to DIY.
