What makes you work hard? Having your own dreams is useful. Good sleep also helps. But the fact is，having a plant on your desk can be good for your work as well.
Mike Robinson，an engineer from Canada，has his own small company. One day，his wife told him to pick out some plants and put them on his workers' desks.
Robinson didn't trust the idea at first. What could plants do? He thought they might just catch workers' eyes. But he decided to try out the idea.
First，Robinson bought 20 plants for his workers. He asked his workers to make a small note with their own names on it. Then，each worker put the note on the plant he chose and took it back to his own desk.
To his surprise，Robinson found that his workers were working much harder and getting along（相处）much better than before.
It could be because his workers made "friendship" with their plants. They took good care of their plants，and then，took good care of their work. Plants can help to have a relaxing feeling as well.
What about you? Are there any plants in your classroom? If not，you might ask your teacher about this. Put some plants in your classroom.
