　　Mr Brown was going away for a week．Before he left, he said to his son, "if anyone asks for me, you can tell him that your father has been out for doing something, and will be back in a week, then be sure to ask him to sit down for a cup of tea．"

　　"OK, Dad," said his son．But he was afraid his son couldn't remember this, he wrote these words down on a piece of paper and gave it to him．His son put it into his small pocket, took it out and looked at it every now and then．

　　Four days passed, but no one came to see his father．The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening．

　　The next afternoon, someone knocked at the door．The boy opened it．A man was standing at the door and said, "Where is your father?" The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper．He could not find it．He suddenly remembered he had burnt it, so he shouted, "No more．"

　　The man was very surprised．He asked, "No more? I met your father last week．When did it happen?"

　　"Burnt yesterday evening．"

The Great Wall of China

　　The Great Wall of China is so large that the men who landed on the moon could see it clearly．It is the longest wall in the world．

　　It begins at Shanhaiguan on the Yellow Sea and ends at Chaiyukan in the Gobi Desert．It is almost three thousand kilometers long．It is not only a wall, it has many thousands of towers．

　　Most of the wall is made of stones．In some places, however, it is made only of dirt．

　　The Chinese people started building walls as early as 600 BC to keep out their enemies．However, it was the first emperor of China, Qin Shihuang-ti, who started the Great Wall in about 214 BC．We get the word“China”from his name．

　　Chinese workers built some of the Great Wall while Qin Shihuang-ti was emperor, but most of it was built much later, between 202 BC and 220 AD, and between 581 AD and 618 AD．After this time, no more work was done on the wall for hundreds of years, and much of it became broken．Then in the 15th century, the first of the Ming emperors started building another wall near the first one．This was to keep out the Mongols．It is this wall that thousands of tourists visit every day．

“For a long time, I had no choice except going to a bar for a drink and karaoke to relax myself,” Yang Chen from a computer business said.

One day when he saw many toy dogs in a toy shop, he had an idea. “Why not do some kind of things and relax myself?” Then he began to make model planes, model ships and something else. The things he has made by himself don’t look as professionally made as those in the shop, but he likes doing it. “It’s not as much fun to play with things which are bought expensively from the shops,” he said.

More and more young people are like Yang, making or creating things on their own. They like doing it themselves. Though making things with our hands may take much time, DIYers enjoy doing it very much. They can make all kinds of things they like. DIY is becoming more and more popular in China. It may be to the young, yet many people remember when it was once a way of life.

During 1960s and 1970s, when there were not enough living things for people to live on, they had to use their own hands to do many things. Whitewashing the wall or making clothes was a part of life because there was no other choice. If you wanted something done, you had to do it yourself; and if you needed something, you made it yourself.
