【１】 以下の英文を読み、各設問に答えなさい。
“My home is messy*”: four innocuous* little words, but when spoken by the oracle* of tidying up,Marie Kondo, they were enough to apparently break the internet. After almost a decade since Kondo
first introduced the world to the concepts of “sparking* joy” and folding your pants into littleenvelopes — also sparking her own Netflix show along the way — it seems having three kids hasradically changed her lifestyle. As reported in the Washington Post, a super tidy house was no（ 1 ）her top priority: “I have kind of given up on that in a good way for me. Now I realize what
is important to me is enjoying spending time with my children at home.”
The comments section under the article exploded* with posts, some angry about being “Konned*”from stressed mums annoyed at what they perceived to be the hypocrisy* of Kondo changing her
mind about those impossible neat-freak* standards. Most responses,（ 2）, have actually beenpretty positive. The characteristic reaction in the latest slew* of think pieces*? Relief. That evensomeone who’s built a hugely profitable career out of tidying admits that priorities change when lifechanges.
Kondo’s rethink is no doubt genuine* — there’s nothing like a toddler* to make tidying up seema Sisyphean* task, after all, and also not much sparks more joy than actually playing with said
toddlers. But Kondo might also be cannily* moving with the times, tapping into a new wave of realism（ⓐlikeAⓑ our lives ⓒ areⓓ whatⓔ about）. Calling it a “trend” feels disingenuous* when,for so many of us, it’s merely a default* way to be — but for once, being a complete and utter* messis kind of in*.
Oxford Dictionaries’ phrase of the year for 2022 — as overwhelmingly voted（ 3）by thepublic — was “’goblin mode’: a type of behavior which is unapologetically* self-indulgent*, lazy,
slovenly*, or greedy, typically in a way that rejects social norms or expectations.” If we all got
obsessed with making our homes cozy and beautiful during the pandemic, it feels like last year wasthe year we gave up: embracing* the mess and the chaos that comes with normal life. To understand
why we might be newly embracing mess, it’s useful to remember just how strong a grip the anticlutter movement has had in recent years. There are scores of TV shows beyond Kondo’s, from theBBC series Stacey Solomon’s Sort Your Life Out to Netflix’s Get Organized with The Home Edit. And
the fact that this obsession with tidying, order, calm and cleanliness has happened at the same time
as visual social media apps have become dominant is surely no coincidence*. Instagram, YouTube, andmore recently TikTok — the video-sharing app that has spawned* a thousand trends — have a lot toanswer（ 4）.

TikTok has proved B a perfect vehicle for sharing tidy, artfully styled, impossibly minimalist
homes — and yes, of course, there’s a hashtag for that. Posts tagged #aesthetic* have had more than−1−

202 billion views, and even if you’re not on the app, you’ll probably recognize the look: beautifullyarranged lifestyle shots of calm, soothing, white-and-beige homes full of clever storage solutions andhyper-neat drawers, with just a few scented candles, chic* coffee tables, and suspiciously healthy pot
plants to lend a very generic splash of personality.
It is the interior design look favored by another handy online type: That Girl. You know the one:the girl who gets up and journals, drinks a green juice, does sunrise yoga in coordinated pastel
exercise gear, then sips a matcha latte with their breakfast bowl. They like clean eating and clean
beauty and a clean house, and putting it all online. They are the flawless* opposite to goblin mode. But
the backlash* to all this has now seriously got going — something that should come as no surprisegiven such lifestyle goals are hilariously* unattainable* for most people, and given how expensive,
time-consuming and, well, boring they are. And not everyone finds tidying therapeutic* — for some,decluttering* is actually painful.
CAnother recent trend does seem to offer a snapshot of unvarnished* reality: videos of “non-aesthetic” homes. Think deeply ordinary houses, with ugly furniture, piles of laundry, kids’ toys
strewn* around the floor, pet beds, broken taps or crappy* kitchen appliances. It’s real, and relatable,and（ 5 ）the fact that a lot of people can’t afford to live in a gleaming* show home, and don’t havetime to keep things spotless.
That said, a lot of these #nonaesthetic home videos are still about tidying, cleaning, or doing a“reset” — a hugely popular category of online content, and baffling* to those of us who Kondo nevermanaged to persuade into believing tidying up was a lifestyle rather than a chore*. But at least the
non-aesthetic cleaning videos just feel a bit more realistic than some of the stage-managed* content
out there.
