A messy desk can actually lead people towards clearer thinking, say researchers from Germany. The researchers found in a series of linked studies- using a messy desk and a messy shop 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 for their untidy desks. “Messy desks may not be as detrimental as they appear to be, as the problem-solving approaches they seem to cause can boost work efficiency or emhance employees creativity in problem solving,” say the authors.Oddly, the effect seems to work most on conservatives-political liberals are less liable to be worried about mess in the first place, say the researchers. “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 ones mind and complicate ones judgments”“However, not all evidence supports this conventional link between a messy environment and a messy mind”. The scientists tested peoples response in variousmessyenvironments, including a messy shop front, a disorganized desk, and even a work environment where a language taskremindedpeople of messiness.The authors found in the series of six studies that people tended towards simplicity in their thinking.“They categorized products in a simpler manner, were willing to pay more for a T-shirt that depicts a simple-looking picture, and sought less variety in their choices”, said the researchers.61.According to the text, a proper way to lead people towards clearer thinking is to . A.make a list of priorities B.simplify the tasks at hand C.follow famous people D.mess up their mind【答案】B【解
