She wrote a book called “The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up”, which is a best-seller around the world.Marie Kondo says people can improve their life by changing the way they think about all their things-everything from books and photos to clothes.This is not the first time an organizing expert has written a book on clutter. They say wonderful things will happen when you organize your home. One book says that if you throw out 50 things from your home, you will truly find your life. Another book says that if you throw clutter away, you will also lose weight. And you can even get a better job, more money and a happy family if you organize the things. “Your self-perception（自我认知）is improved by living in a clean and tidy room,” she said. “This can change lifestyles and even your looks.”Marie Kondo teaches a way of organizing. If the object（物品）was meaningful to you, you thank it before throwing or giving it away. In her book, Ms. Kondo suggests that you touch the object and ask one simple question, “Does it bring me joy?” If it doesnt, you give it away so that it may give joy to someone else.15 .

Cons（反方）Zhang Keqi，14Sometimes the apps cant recognize （识别） what students are reading in English. They have to work on them for a long time to get a high score. Whats more, their eyesight has gotten worse since they started using apps to do their homework.Xu Jiaqian,15I dont think its a good way to do homework on the phones.
