“Let’s brainstorm together!”You might often hear your teachers ask you to have a group discussion to solve a problem.But is brainstorming really a good way to deal with problems,especially creative ones.
Dutch company WeTransfer did a survey of 20,000 people from 197 countries and regions.Most of the participants(参与者) have creative jobs.They are writers,musicians,photographers,and podcasters(播客博主).The survey results suggested that brainstorming is largely unhelpful for solving a creative challenge.
“It seems that while working together is important to bring an idea to life,it’s not that good for shaping ideas in the first place,”said Rob Alderson,WeTransfer’s former editor in chief(前主编).“If we give people enough time and space to think properly(真正地),they will come up with better ideas,”Alderson added.Even Alex Osborn,the father of brainstorming,sees spending time alone to think as part of his own creative process.
However,most companies rarely give their employees a chance to prepare and form their thoughts.They often have many meetings,which is a killer of creativity,according to the survey.Many participants see meetings as a barrier(障碍) to good thinking.
Spending time alone to think will help you come up with your own ideas and develop independent thinking.This is important when you’re making decisions.Nearly 80 percent of participants in WeTransfer’s survey say they trust their own instincts(直觉) and research when they consider an idea.

A.People waste too much time brainstorming.
B.Brainstorming destroys people’s creativity.

( )2.What can we learn from Rob Alderson’s words
A.Spending time alone is good for shaping ideas.
B.Working together is important for shaping ideas.
C.Everyone has his or her own way to shape ideas.
D.Many people don’t have enough time to enjoy themselves.
