【主旨大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了DIY、DIY爱好者喜爱DIY的原因及旧时的DIY。
1. C【点拨】根据空前的“Yang Chen works for a computer business in Beijing. He enjoys his work.”和空后的“One day when he saw many toy dogs in a toy shop, he had an idea.”可知,空前空后都是在讲述与杨晨相关的事情,由此可推知,设空处讲述的事情也与杨晨相关,即与此处的“He”相关,选项C符合语境。
2. G【点拨】根据空前的“Yang Chen works for a computer... model ships and something else.”可推知,此处应该还是填入与杨晨相关的选项。根据前文可知,A选项内容与文章不符,排除A;选项G符合语境。
3. D【点拨】根据空前的“They enjoy it because it is fun.”和空后的“What’s more, they think it is a good way to protect the environment.”可知,空处填入的内容也应该是DIY爱好者喜欢DIY的原因。结合选项可知,选项D符合语境。
4. B【点拨】根据空后的“Many people remember the days... something, they also made it themselves.”可知,这一段主要是关于旧时的DIY。结合选项可知,选项B符合语境。
5. F【点拨】根据空后的“And if they needed something, they also made it themselves.”可知,如果他们需要某个东西,他们也自己制作它。由此可知,设空处需要填入一个能与之相并列的句子。结合选项可知,选项F符合语境。

【分析】
做阅读还原题时，需先通读全文把握主旨（本文围绕DIY展开，介绍DIY的定义、爱好者喜爱DIY的原因及旧时DIY的情况）；接着分析每个空缺处前后的语境，明确空缺处需填内容的逻辑关系（如指代、并列、递进、因果等）；再逐一匹配选项，排除与语境不符的选项，最终确定答案。
【解析】
1. 第1空：空前介绍杨晨的工作及他喜欢工作，空后说他看到玩具狗有了做DIY的想法，C项“但他下班后很难放松”能衔接，说明他有时间做DIY，符合语境。
2. 第2空：空前讲他开始制作模型等，空后引出DIY的定义，G项“他对DIY很感兴趣，因为它带来乐趣让生活多彩”承接上文他做DIY的行为，符合语境。
3. 第3空：空前说爱好者喜欢DIY是因为有趣，空后说还能保护环境，D项“他们还说DIY能帮他们省钱”是另一个原因，与前后原因并列，符合逻辑。
4. 第4空：空后讲过去DIY是生活方式，B项“事实上，DIY在中国不是现代事物”引出旧时DIY的内容，符合语境。
5. 第5空：空后说需要东西自己做，F项“如果他们想要什么，必须自己做”与后句是并列关系，符合语境。
