When you have got a lot of stuff，decluttering(整理)your home can be really necessary.Decluttering is just about putting new systems into place in your life.1. ，you realize how great you feel about it，and you want to keep going.

Have three piles:one for things you’re going to keep，one for things that are a maybe，and one for things you’re going to give away.You will also need some bin bags，for rubbish.A revisiting pile is important if you’re struggling to get rid of things.4..More often than not，you end up saying，actually，I don’t need that.
Stay focused.People often get sidetracked when they’re trying to declutter.They start trying on clothes they had forgotten about，or looking at old photos.Another common mistake is to just move things from place to place，instead of getting rid of them.5. .

If American waterways had ever been voted on the yearbook，the Buffalo River could easily have been named Ugliest.It could be hard to find hope there.It took decades for public perception of the river to shift.But activist citizens，who collaborated with industry，government，and environ-ment~groups.never gave up on their polluted river—the Buffalo River gradually went from being considered a lost cause to a place worth fighring for.And by now the cleaned—up water is one of Buffalo’S biggest attractions.
By the 1960s，the river was seen as one of the worst sources of pollution pouring into the Great Lakes.The Buffalo River had caught fire many times.The surface had an oily layer，and any fish caught there were not eatable.
The waterway’s fate started shifting in the mid-1960s.Stanley Spisiak was a local Polish—American jeweler by day，but by evening he was the kind of guy who’d chase down dumpers(垃圾车)he spotted on the Buffalo River.By 1966 he found himself winning the National Wildlife Federation’s“Water Conservationist of the Year”award.And before long he got a nickname:“Mr.Buffalo River.”But there was only so much he could do—the river was still declared biologically dead in 1969.
Jill Spisiak Jedlicka is his great-grandniece.She picks up where he left off by directing the river’s protector organization，Buffalo Niagara Waterkeeper.Professor Schneekloth and seven friends founded the organization as an all-volunteer nonprofit in 1989，after organizing the first river cleanup that year.Today the group employs 27 full-time workers and has helped oversee the Buffalo River’s $100 million restoration.
So far，the Buffalo River’s water quality has restored，but it is still an ongoing issue，as sewage(污水)can overflow into the river after storms.Habitat restoration continues as well；fish and plantings are still being sampled to measure how well it’s gone.
1.What did the Buffalo River use to be?
A. A waterway on the yearbook. B. A river heavily polluted.
C. A great attraction of Buffalo’s. D. A place worth fighting for.
2.Why was Mr.Spisiak named“Mr.Buffalo River”?
A. Because his fate shifted in the 1 960s.
B. Because he spotted dumpers on the River.
C. Because he spared no efforts to protect the river.
D. Because the river was declared biologically dead.
3.How long did it take for the fiver to restore?
A. More than half a century. B. Just four decades.
C. About 30 years. D. Only 27 years.
4.What can be a suitable title for this text?
A. The restoration of the Buffalo River B. Stanley Spisiak:The“Mr.Buffalo River”
C. The future of the Buffalo River D. River protection:A long way to go
