　　没人做家务会感到开心，但别出心裁的小技巧会让家务活变得轻松，甚至增加一些乐趣。近日，懒汉们在社交媒体上纷纷贡献了自己的做家务妙招，让我们看看有哪些？

­　　There are very few people that actually find the prospect of cleaning the house exciting.But these inventive hacks could make your least favourite chores a whole lot easier - or more fun, at the very least.Fellow slackers have been taking to social media to share their favourite cleaning tricks.

­　　1. 除灰尘

­　　透明胶带一般用于包装礼物，但也可以除尘。只需把一条透明胶带粘到物体表面再撕掉。瞧，灰尘就被粘掉了。

­　　While sellotape is more commonly used to wrap up presents, it also doubles up as an inventive way to dust.Simply stick a piece of tape onto the surface and pull it off. Voila, just like that the dust is removed.

­　　2. 擦地板

­　　圣诞节买的毛茸茸的袜子从来没有穿过，赶快好好利用起来。只需把袜子套脚上，在厨房里走一走，地板就擦干净了，不费吹灰之力。

­　　Those fluffy socks you got at Christmas but have never worn could also be put into good use with this trick.Just pop them on your feet, walk around your kitchen and you"ve cleaned the floor. It"s as easy as that, according to one groundbreaking pioneer.

­　　3. 洗玩具

­　　洗碗机的威力大大的，完全可以将玩具扔进去和餐具一起洗干净。

­　　Meanwhile, do not underestimate the power of the dishwasher. One person showed how their children"s toy Stormtroopers could be washed along with all their cutlery.

­　　4. 洗搅拌机和咖啡壶

­　　尽管用搅拌机打一杯健康的鲜果奶昔特别棒，但清洗起来总是很麻烦。但是你不用自己费力气，利用搅拌机自己的力量就可以清洗干净。你只需往里放一点肥皂和水，再打开开关。同样的，以1:1的比例给咖啡壶倒上醋和水，然后让它自己搅拌。

­　　While blenders are fantastic for whipping up a healthy smoothie, it"s always a chore having to wash it up afterwards.But instead of using your own elbow grease, it"s possible to use the power of the blender to let it clean itself.Simply put some soap and water into the kitchen appliance and turn it on.You can upgrade this method by putting one part vinegar and one part water in your coffeemaker, and get it to churn it out afterwards.

­　　5. 清理冰箱架和烤箱

­　　往冰箱架铺上一层保鲜膜，撒了什么东西在上面，换一层就可以。类似的，烤箱里也可以铺上锡纸，就可以避免不必要的清洗工作。唯一的问题是，扔掉那么多锡纸对环境不好。

­　　If you cover your fridge with cling film, you can easily remove and replace it with another layer after any spills.Similarly, if you always use tin foil when grilling your sandwiches you can avoid any unnecessary washing up. The only snag is that throwing away all that foil is not great for the environment.

­　　6. 洗碗

­　　很简单，把食品包装当碗用是逃避洗碗的好方法。

­　　Using food packaging as a bowl is one way to get out of doing the washing up.

­　　7. 洗马桶污渍

­　　洗不掉马桶下面的污渍？往里面倒一瓶可口可乐，留一晚，早上你家的马桶就会散发珍珠般白皙的光泽。

­　　Can"t budge the stains in the bottom of your toilet bowl? One social media user advises pouring a whole bottle of Coca Cola down the loo and leaving overnight. In the morning your pan will be pearly white with no elbow grease invested.

­　　8. 去除冰箱异味

­　　在冰箱里铺上报纸，因为报纸能显著吸收异味，吸附污垢，并且容易更换。

­　　The laziest household hackers have discovered that the solution to a stinky fridge is placing sheets of newspaper inside it. This apparently absorbs smells, catches grime and can be easily replaced.

­　　9. 清洁微波炉

­　　拿两个柠檬，每个切两半，放进微波炉适用的罐子里，里面加满水，放进微波炉。只需高火加热四分钟，你的微波炉就会被蒸干净。

­　　Another favourite life hack published on social media is to place an oven-proof jug of water with two lemons cut in half inside your microwave. Simply turn it on high for four minutes and your microwave will have been steamed clean.

­　　怎么样，有没有发现新大陆，快点动手操作起来吧~
