Reversal — change your perspective and solve your problem
It’s often your definition of a problem that limits you in finding a suitable solution. Creative solutions require a change of perspective. 36________
The reversal technique is a creative thinking technique that is based on the thought that to change your perspective, you sometimes need to change the order of the words in your problem definition.
How you change the order of the words doesn’t matter much, as long as the key words are reversed. 37________ Your challenge is “How do we make sure that fewer people take cars to their work?”. Swapping（掉换）the key words, you could rephrase this challenge as “How do we make sure that fewer cars take people to their work?”.
Not every problem statement is suitable for a reversal. Sometimes using this technique requires you to first rephrase the question altogether. 38________ For instance, the question “How might we sell more washing machines?” is not easily reversed — there is no key word to swap with “washing machines”. Yet, when you rephrase the question to “How might we sell more washing machines to young parents?”, you can easily change it to “How might we sell more young parents washing machines?”. 39________ You could interpret this last sentence as “the washing machine pays the young parents to try it out”. Then, you could start communicating to potential buyers how much they will save each year when they choose your energy - efficient washing machine.
As this example shows, some reversals will require a very flexible way of thinking. 40________ However, thinking about the tiny amount of time it will “cost” you to try out a reversal, you have very little to lose, and potentially, lots to gain.
A. The problem statement is much more logical.
B. Often it helps to add one or more key words to the sentence.
C. Rephrasing your challenge is to change the problem statement.
D. A great way to do this is by “reversing” your problem statement.
E. For instance, imagine you are responsible for limiting the traffic jam in your area.
F. Admittedly, it is a very unusual challenge, but it might just stimulate a creative thought.
G. Not everyone will be able to move from an unreasonable statement to a useful solution.

答案： 36. D；37. E；38. B；39. F；40. G
