问题 Many people whose possessions were destroyed in natural disasters eventually considered their loss ______.
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)?

选项

答案Their house needs to be simplified.

解析 本题问“从句于:Gibbs and I did have a close call shortly before we decide to simplify.’中,我们可以推断出有关作者房子的什么信息?”文中提到“Though we’ve never had a catastrophic loss such as that,Gibbs and I did have a close call shortly before we decide to simplify. At that time we lived in a fire zone. One right a firestorm raged through and destroyed over six hundred homes in our community. That tragedy gave us the opportunity to look objectively at the goods we’d accumulated.”(尽管我们没有经历过那样悲惨的损失,但吉布斯和我在决定简化生活的前不久,曾经确实有一次从灾难中侥幸脱险的经历。那时我们住在一个炮火区。一天晚上的一次大爆发席卷了我们的社区并毁坏了600多幢房子。那次悲剧为我们创造了一次客观地审视我们所堆积物品的良机)。由此推断他们并没有对自己的损失感到惋惜,而是觉得这是一次清理房子的机会。又根据问题中的句子,可知作者和丈夫有简化他们房子的倾向。因此,答案为Their house needs to be simplified。
