18、snt own a mobile phone. In fact plenty of younger kids have one in their pocket. Practically everyone can make and receive calls anywhere, anytime.

19、（调 查）.Of those Australians who still have a landline, a third concede that its not really necessary and theyre keeping it as a security blanket - 19 percent say they never use it while a further 13 percent keep it in case of emergencies. I think my home falls into that category. More than half of Au

20、stralian homes are still choosing to stick with their home phone. Age is naturally a factor （因素）-only 58 percent of Generation Ys still use landlines now and then, compared to 84 percent of Baby Boomers whove perhaps had the same home number for 50 years. Age isnt the only factor; Id say its also to

21、 do with the makeup of your household. Generation Xers with young families, like my wife and I, can still find it convenient to have a home phone rather than providing a mobile phone for every family member. That said, to be honest the only people who ever ring our home phone are our Baby Boomers pa

22、rents, to the point where we play a game and guess who is calling before we pick up the phone （using Caller ID would take the fun out of it）. How attached are you to your landline?

But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures ou

26、t of plastic garbage, foreing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products. At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called“Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several voluntee

27、r beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源)of plastic pollution, but theyve recently come under fire because most peopl

28、e dont need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that s part of Von Wongs artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear. In a piece from 201

29、8, Von Wong wanted to illustrate (说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckloads worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled Truckload of Plastic, Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like theyd

33、es D During an interview for one of my books, my interviewer said something I still think about often. Annoyed by the level of distraction(干扰)in his open office, he said, “Thats why I have a membership at the coworking space across the street so I can focus. His comment struck me as strange. After a

34、ll, coworking spaces also typically use an open office layout (布局). But I recently came across a study that shows why his approach works The researchers examined various levels of noise on participants as they completed tests of creative thinking. They were randomly divided into four groups and expo

35、sed to various noise levels in the background, from total silence to 50 decibels(分贝),70 decibels, and 85 decibels. The differences between most of the groups were statistically insignificant; however,the participants in the 70 decibels groupthose exposed to a level of noise similar to background cha

36、tter in a coffee shop-significantly outperformed the other groups. Since the effects were small, this may suggest that our creative thinking does not differ that much in response to total silence and 85 decibels of background noise. But since the results at 70 decibels were significant, the study al

37、so suggests that the right level of background noisenot too loud and not total silencemay actually improve ones creative thinking ability. The right level of background noise may interrupt our normal patterns of thinking just enough to allow our imaginations to wander, without making it impossible t

38、o focus. This kind of distracted focus appears to be the best state for working on creative tasks. So why do so many of us hate our open offices? The problem may be that, in our offices, we cant stop ourselves from getting drawn into others conversations while were trying to focus. Indeed, the resea
