Why Are British Houses So Small Yet So Expensive？
Even in more rural or open areas like Scotland，the newer houses are so small but pared to England，Scotland has so much space for much bigger homes like those in the U.8.or 6 day ago Australia，but people there choose to build small homes that look really out of place in the countryside.What's more，the prices are so high.Why？
We are a small country；land suitable for building is expensive.The price of land is an important part in house prices.Also，in Britain，most houses are built of brick，so labour costs（人力成本） are high.When I visited the U.S.，I noted that many of the new houses were built of timber and didn't have slates（石板瓦）or tiled roofs（用瓦平铺的屋顶）.This is why when tornadoes（龙卷风） hit，houses there are blown away.
Because of the housing market and prices，I am back for good in France，after 10 years of working in the U.K.For 130，000，you can at least get a three to four bedroom cottage and lots of land in 5 hours ago France.
You might Google"British country houses images"for some nice pictures of bigger houses.There is a huge variety of styles and sizes of houses in the U.K.well worth a look.
In the past，nobody could afford bigger houses.And it's cheaper when you have less space to heat.Remember that it's not a warm country.
If you have been to the U.K，you will see how crowded it is around cities and towns.There is no room for large houses.What's more，energy is very expensive in the U.K.and it is cold in winter，so a large house costs a lot of money to heat.
（　　）11. According to Berry，what causes Britain to have small but expensive houses？ 　 　
①Limited land.High labour costs. ②High labour costs.
③A large population.④High prices of land suitable for building.

（　　）13. Who lists lower energy costs as a benefit of a smaller house？ 　 　
A.Sue and Kim. B.Kim and Chris.

The English mum Liz Pinfield-Wells has a DIY recycling（回收）centre in her garden. She has recycled 1,200 kg of rubbish and raised money for her local community along the way.
Liz built the centre after the birth of her third child, when she found the baby food bags and some other special things like toothbrushes weren't included in the town's weekly rubbish collection. So she set up her own recycling centre in her garden.
At first, Liz had only a couple of boxes. But now, her garden has more bins to help the locals deal with their waste.

Every month, Liz sends most of her rubbish to Terra Cycle, a company that processes the rubbish and turns it into useful things like watering cans（洒水壶）. The weight（重量）of Liz's recyclable materials is changed into points for money. And the money will be paid out twice a year to charities（慈善团体）chosen by her.
In the last three years, Liz's recycling centre has raised over￡1,000,which has been given to her daughter Zoe's sports group to buy new things. She hopes that her centre can help more people realize the need to recycle things and do something helpful.

Keeping Mount Tai clean is a big headache.In 2023，there were over 8.6 million visitors and they left nearly 24，000 tons of rubbish behind.As big machines couldn't be used there，the area has depended on porters（挑夫），also known as tiaoshangong in Chinese，to carry trash up and down the mountain on foot.However，fewer people are willing to work as porters now.

People had different views on the invention.Some gave a thumb﹣up to the use of new technology.Others worried that porters would lose their jobs.And a few jokingly asked if the dogs could also carry tourists up the mountain."Robotic dogs are of great help but they cannot fully replace humans，"Ma said.

In order to develop Wheat Straw Painting, she came up with the idea of mixing it with other traditional Chinese art. So she spent two years learning Suzhou embroidery（苏绣）.
One of her greatest works is a bird among flowers. It took her the whole year to finish it. The bird’s smooth-shiny and colourful feathers are made of wheat straw, while the flowers are made of silk. "In my works, you will find paintings and embroideries mix well," said Zhang Li.
Through hard work, Zhang Li successfully made people fall in love with Wheat Straw Paintings. She said, "What I have done is just the very beginning. There is still a long way to go."
