My cousin and DIY

我的表哥和DIY

My cousin Anclrew is crazy about DIY. He loves to repair things and decorate his house. But when he finishes, the house always looks terrible!

我的表哥安德鲁痴迷于DIY。他喜欢修理东西并且装饰他的房子。但是当他完工的时候，房子总是看起来很糟糕！

He once tried to put in a brighter light in his bedroom, but he made a mistake. Then his whole house had a power cut. Another time,he wanted to put up a picture on his bedroom wall,but he hit a pipe and filled the room with water.

他曾经努力在他的卧室里安装一盏更明亮的灯，但是他犯了一个错误。然后他的整个房子都断电了。还有一次，他想在他卧室的墙上挂一幅画，但是他碰到了水管而且房间被水淹了。

Last month, he thought the living room in his house was boring, so he painted it blue. His mum said, "Stop it. "But he kept on painting. Now the living room has not only blue walls but also a blue ceiling and floor. Even his cat is blue now!

上个月，他认为他家里的客厅很令人厌烦，所以他就把它涂成了蓝色。他妈妈说：“停止涂色。”但是他继续涂色。现在客厅不仅有蓝色的墙，而且天花板和地板都是蓝色的。甚至他的猫现在也是蓝色的！

When I wanted a shelf above my bed,he said, "No problem! "He then spent five hours putting up the shelf on the wall. Then I put my books on the shelf. Whoops! They couldn't stay there because one end of the shelf was much higher than the other!

当我想在我的床的上方安一个书架时，他说：“没问题！”然后他花费五个小时在墙上安了一个书架。然后我把书放在了书架上。哎呀！它们没能待在书架上，因为书架的一端比另一端高出许多！

I bought some books about DIY for him and I alsoadvised him to take a course in DIY. But this just made him angry--he says he already knows everything about it. So instead,I am reading all the books myself and attending lessons every Saturday. Now I know much more about DIY than my cousin!

我给他买了一些关于DIY方面的书，并且我也建议他去上DIY方面的课。但这使他很生气一他说他已经知道关于DIY的一切。所以，反而我自己正阅读所有的书并且每周六去上课。现在我知道的关于DIY的知识要比我的表哥多很多！
