Question 1 Which sentence best expresses the controlling idea of the article?
Answer
A A Minimalism is a lifestyle that requires participants to
declutter and organize their lives.
B
The appeal of the minimalist philosophy is that it provides for
an environmentally-friendly lifestyle, the achievement of self-
sufficiency, and even a path to adventure.

shoes, a matching purse for every pair of shoes, or a house
full of monogrammed throw pillows.

lifestyle is the opportunity it provides for adventure.
