Do you have too much stuff? Are you, dare we say it “untidy”? Say hello to a TV show called “Tidying Up with Marie Kondo”, a home improvement show based on her wildly popular book The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up. In the show, Marie Kondo acts as a tiny garbage fairy for messy people, visiting their houses to share the wisdom of the “KonMari” method. This method is simple in theory but can be endlessly complex in practice. You divide all the stuff in your house— all of it—into several categories, and then examine each item— all of them—to see if it sparks joy. If it does, you keep it. If it doesn’t, you thank it and neatly discard it. So, is the TV show inspiring people to tidy up? Firsthand accounts seem to indicate a small wave of people bringing piles of donation bags to used goods stores. One store received thousands of bags of used possessions in one day. January is usually the stores’ slow season for donations because it’s cold and people don’t want to bother, but not this January. People seemed determined to clean up their homes. One used bookstore received a month’s worth of books in donations in a week when a man gave over fifty boxes of books from his home. It seems Marie’s TV show is having a big impact after all.
Questions 16 to 18 are based on the passage you have just heard.
16. What is Marie Kondo’s TV show about?
17. What things can be kept in one’s home according to Marie Kondo?
18. What do we learn about one used bookstore this January?
选项
A、Things that make one happy.
B、Things that are becoming rare.
C、Things that occupy little space.
D、Things that cost a lot of money.
答案
A
解析
细节推断题。短文中提到,Marie Kondo有一个方法能让家里变得井井有条,这个方法说起来容易做起来难。具体的办法是把家里所有的物品分成几类,看哪件物品能激发你的喜爱之情,如果喜爱,就留下。由此可知,Marie Kondo建议留下的是那些让人高兴的物品。
