10.English slangwill enjoya wideruse.CPerhaps morethan any other kindof work,creative workis themost activeone forbrainstorming.But a new reportbasedon asurvey of20,000creative people from197countries suggeststhat,in fact,a majorityof theseprofessionals-including writers,musicians andphotographers-find thatbrainstorming islargely unhelpfulfor solvinga creativechallenge.A file-sharing companyWe Transfersyearly surveyof creative people repeatsprevious researchabout theneedfor individualpreparation andreflection.Send peopleoff withthetimeand spaceto thinkproperly,andthequality oftheirideas willprobably improve,,Rob Alderson,WeTransfer^editor inchief says.In theprocess ofarranging meetings,it appearsthat we often ignoreto giveparticipants achance toprepare andformtheir thoughts.Its avery importantstep thatis supportedby AlexOsborn,the person who popularizedbrainstorming.WeTransfer^survey suggeststhat meetingistheprimary killerof creativity.More than40%of respondentsnow(障碍)consider work—including theadministrative tasksrequired ofemployees inbig corporations-asabarrier togood飞thinking.“That aworrying numbergiven thatalmost90%of ourrespondents workin creativefields whichrise andfallon thepower ofgood ideas,the reportsays.It seemswe needto rethinkthe waywe workand play,particularly thewayhow wespend timein theoffice.In pollingcreativepeoplearoundtheworld,WeTransfer discoveredsome fascinatinggeographic phenomena.Forinstance,when itcomes to the biggestdistractions tothinking aboutideas,French are more likely to blametheir sociallifethan theirjobs,their partners,or socialmedia.Chinese,meanwhile,are morelikelytopoint thefinger at their partners.Though thegrowing bodyof evidencesuggests brainstormingmay notresult inthe bestideas,it isntentirely useless.A studypublished inthe journalCommunication Reportsstresses itsvalue asa team-building activityrather thana tacticalmeeting.If nothingelse,practicing thebasic rulesof brainstorming—positivity,openness,building onothers9ideas(团队凝聚力)-promotes teamcohesion andtrust.8,Whats thegeneral beliefof brainstormingA.Its ahot topicamong researchers.B.It helpspeople tomake preparations.C.Ifs acommon practiceto promotecreativity.D.It canmake surepeople dosome reflection.

11.Who usesbrainstorming mosteffectivelyA*A writerpreparing foranewbook.B.A programmerlooking fornew ideas.C.A newprofessional eagerto bepromoted.D.A managerorganizing groupbuilding activities.D一Research showsthat handwritingpractice isntjust auseless taskyour teacherscreated toannoy youit couldactuallymake kidssmarter.According toHealth Key,researchers foundthat kidswho practicewriting lettersdevelop betterrecognition skillsthan those whojust practiceseeing andsaying them.Handwriting practicealso producesdifferent brainactivation patternsthanverbal repetition,more similarto patternsseen inadults.Other studieshave foundthat kidswho writean essaybyhand writemore andmore quicklythanthose who usea computer,and that they9remorehkely to write incompletesentences.Katya Feder,a professorattheUniversity ofOttawa Schoolof Rehabilitation,tells HealthKey thatwriting by handintegrates motorpathways into the brain-and indeed,handwriting engagesthe bodyina way thattyping doesnt.Eachstroke ofa keyfeels prettymuch the same asanyother,but eachletter formedbyhandis unique,and itsno surprisethat(字母表)kids growmore accustomedtothealphabet whentheyre askedtowriteit out.Nor isit shockingthat kidswritemore quicklywith morecontent whenthey doso witha pen—I firststarted writinglonghand asawayto fightwritersblock,and Ivesworn by the techniqueever since.A lotof itsappeal hasto dowith itsphysicality——its easierto getaflow goingon thepage thanon thescreen,andthefeeling thatIm doingsomething helpsme keepgoing.Of course,the otherperk ofa penis thatits notconnected tothe Internet,and Iwonder ifthe kidswho werecomposingessays onthe computerwere simplydistracted fromtheir workbythemachines manyother offerings.Many of(虚幻的)——the benefitsof handwritingare no doubt real,but someof themare illusoryresearch showsthesamepaper(潦草地写)(gets abetter gradewhen itswritten neatlythan whenits scrawledno wordon howa typedversion would)measure up,So kids,practice yourhandwriting-if itdoesnt actuallymake yousmarter,at leastitwillmake peoplethinkyou are.
