In those days， it was a common phenomenon that several family members had yo live in a small house with no private space at all. Therefore， it was not necessary to decorate their house. In addition， people were hard up and had no extra money to spend on decoration.

　　Today， however， it is quince a difference story. More and more people have their privately owned houses. Also with the development of economy， people are much better off. Now， they can make decoration of any kind at their will.

　　As a coin has two sides， house decoration has its advantages and disadvantages. Decorating can make the houses more beautiful， and a well-decorated house can make people feel comfortable and relaxed. But that will cost a lot of money. Besides， some kinds of poisonous material will cause environmental pollution and do harm to our health. Therefore， when making decoration， we should avoid these disadvantages.
