Tom’s DIY Story: Fixing His Bike

First, Tom cleaned the bike. He used a brush and soapy water to wipe off the dirt. It took him 30 minutes to make the bike look clean again. Then, he checked the tires (轮胎).

DIY for Kids: Why It’s Important
More and more schools are adding DIY classes to their lessons. Why is DIY important for kids Let’s find out.
First, DIY helps kids develop hands-on skills. When kids make things with their hands—like paper lanterns or wooden toys—they learn how to use tools and materials. These skills are useful in daily life, such as fixing a broken toy or decorating a room.
Second, DIY teaches kids to solve problems. When doing a DIY project, kids may face difficulties—like a fallen shelf or a torn paper craft. They need to think of ways to fix the problem, which makes them more creative and clever.
Third, DIY builds kids’ confidence. When a kid finishes a DIY project—even a small one like a paper flower—he or she feels proud. This pride helps kids believe in themselves and try harder in other things.
Finally, DIY is fun! Kids enjoy making things on their own. It’s a great way to relax and spend time with family or friends. For example, a family can make cookies together or decorate the Christmas tree with hand-made ornaments (装饰品).
So, if you have a chance to try DIY, don’t miss it! It’s not just about making things—it’s about learning and growing.
( )7. What does the underlined phrase “hands-on skills” mean

The teacher said, “This project not only teaches you DIY skills but also tells you the importance of recycling waste materials.”
