A

Managers and office busybodies might be keen on a clean desk, but it seems that in terms of productivity, they could have it all wrong. “A messy desk can actually lead people towards clearer thinking,” say researchers from Germany.

front---that people actually thought more clearly when all around was chaos, as they sought to simplify the tasks at hand. That is, visual and mental clutter (杂乱) forces human beings to focus and think more clearly. For instance, famous thinkers and writers such as Albert Einstein and Roald Dahl have been notorious (臭名昭著的)for their untidy desks.

“Messy desks may not be as detrimental as they appear to be, as the problem-solving approaches they seem to promote work efficiency or enhance employees’ creativity in problem solving,” say the authors.

“Business and government managers often promote ‘clean desk’ policies to avoid disorganized offices and messy desks, for the purpose of boosting work efficiency and productivity,” writes a researcher, Jia Liu of the University of Groningen. “This practice is based on the conventional wisdom that a disorganized and messy environment can clutter one’s mind and complicate one’s judgments.”

“However, not all evidence supports this conventional link between a messy environment and a messy mind”. The scientists tested people’s response in various messy environments, including a messy shop front, a disorganized desk, and even a work environment where a language task reminded people of messiness.

The authors found in the series of six studies that people tended towards simplicity in their thinking.

“They classified products in a simpler manner, were willing to pay more for a T-shirt that has a simple-looking picture, and sought less variety in their choices”, said the researchers. 21. Why did the author take Albert Einstein and Ronald Dahl for example? A. To tell readers untidy desks can make you as famous as them. B. To convince readers that untidiness is not all that bad. C. To inform readers of one way to success—untidy desks.

D. To attract readers and show the author’s wide range of knowledge. 22. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. A messy environment will certainly lead to a messy mind. B. A clean environment will do great harm to work efficiency. C. People tend to clear up the mess before thinking clearly. D. All people are not in favor of “clean desk” in the office.
