10、re shown to be 15%more productive when theirworkplaces were decorated with houseplants.The engineers at the Massachusetts Instituteof Technology(MIT)have taken it a step further changing theactual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverse,even unusual functions.These include plan
11、tsthat have sensors printed onto their leaves to show when theyre short of water and a plant that can detectharmful chemicals in groundwater.Were thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of thethings that we use every day,explained Michael Strano,a professor of chemical enginee
12、ring at MIT.One of his latest projects has been to make plants glow(发光)in experiments using some common vegetables.Stranos team found that they could create a faint light for three-and-a-half hours.The light,aboutone-thousandth of the amount needed to read by,is just a start.The technology,Strano sa
13、id,could one day beused to light the rooms or even to turn trees into self-powered street lamps.In the future,the team hopes to develop a version of the technology that can be sprayed onto plant leaves ina one-off treatment that would last the plants lifetime.The engineers are also trying to develop
14、 an on and off switchwhere the glow would fade when exposed to daylight.Lighting accounts for about 7%of the total electricity consumed in the US.Since lighting is often far removedfrom the power source(电源)-such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highway-a lotof energy is

18、ts made pollution-free?CThe first patient who died on my watch was an older man with a faulty heart.We tried to slow it down withtreatment,but it suddenly stopped beating completely.Later,whenever I would have a case like that one,I foundmyself second-guessing my clinical management.However,it turns
19、 out that thinking twice may actually causemore harm than good.In a working paper,Emory University researchers found that when doctors delivering a baby have a bad result,they are more likely to switch to a different delivery method with the next patient,often unnecessarily andsometimes with worse r
20、esults.Because doctors make so many decisions that have serious consequences,thefalloutfrom second-guessingappears especially large for us.A 2006 study found that if a patient had a bleed after being prescribed(开药)warfarin,the physician was about 20%less likely to prescribe later patients the blood
