  "The fire saved us the agony of deciding what to keep and what to get rid of," one woman wrote. And once all those things were no longer there, she and her husband saw how they had weighed them down and complicated their lives.

  "There was to much stuff we never used and that was just taking up space- We vowed when we started over we'd replace only what we needed,and this time we'd do it right. We've kept our promise: we don't have much now, but what we have is exactly what we want."

  Though we've never had a catastrophic loss such as that, Gibbs and I did have a close call shortly before we decided to simplify. AI that time we lived in a fire zone. One night a firestorm raged through and destroyed over six hundred homes in our community. That tragedy gave us the opportunity to look objectively atthe goods we'd accumulated.

  We saw that there was so much we could get rid of and not only never miss, but be better off without. Having almost lost it all. we found it much casier to let go of the things we knew we'd never use again.

  Obviously, there's a tremendous difference between getting rid of possessions and losing them through a natural disaster without having a say in the matter. And this is not to minimize the tragedy and pain such aloss can generate.

  But you might think about how you would approach the acquisition process if you had to do all over again. Look around your home and make a list or what you would replace.

  Make another fist of things you wouldn't acquire again no matter what, and in fact would be happy to be rid of.

  When you're ready to start unloading some of your stuff, that list will be a good place to start.

  l.Many people whose possessions were destroyed in natural disasters eventually considered their loss________________.

  2.After all their possessions were last in the fire, the woman and her husband felt that their lives were____________________.

  3.What do we know about the author's house from the sentence "Gibbs and I did have a close call..." (Lines 1-2, Para. 4.)?

  4.According to the author, getting rid of possessions and losing them through a natural disaster are vastly____________________.

  5.What does the author suggest people do with unnecessary things?

  Road politeness is not only good manners, but good sense too.It takes the most cool-headed and good-tempered of drivers to resist the temptation to revenge when subjected to uncivilized behavior.On the other hand,a little politeness goes a long way towards relieving the tensions of motoring.A friendly nod or a wave of acknowledgement in response to an act of politeness when they see it.

  However,misplaced politeness can also be dangerous.Typical examples are the driver who brakes violently toallow a car to emerge from a side street at some hazard to following traffic,when a few seconds later the road would be clear anyway;or the man who waves a child across a zebra crossing into the path of oncoming vehicles that may be unable to stop in time.The same goes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever and whenever they care to.It always amazes me that the highways are not covered with the dead bodiesof these grannies.

  A veteran driver,whose manners are faultless,told me it would help if motorists learnt to filter correctlyinto traffic streams one at a time without causing the total blockages that give rise to bad temper.Unfortunately,modern motorists can't even learn to drive,let alone master the subtler aspects of roadsmanship.Years age the experts warned us that the car-ownership explosion would demand a lot more give-and-take from all road users.It is high fime for all of us to take this message to heart.

  1.According to the passage,people's behaviors on the roads are becoming_____________________.

  2.What does the author suggest in order to get control of the situation?

  3.Drivers who can manage to control their impulse to revenge when they experience impolite behavior are considered as_________________by the author.
