Little investments produce huge profits．CFor many of us， our workplace can be dark， depressing and dull． Windowless rooms and airless open-plan floors can kill motivation and cause a loss to worker performance， possibly even their health． But a refreshing trend is taking root in workplace design： nature． There's a growing evidence showing that workplaces which include natural elements， such as plants， light， colors and shapes， have noticeable and measurable benefits for both companies and their employees． The positive effects touch on everything from worker happiness and creativity to increased productivity， improved profits， and the improved ability to attract the best workers． It's all based on the principle of biophilia（亲生命性） - the born relationship between humans and the natural world and other living systems． And it's easier to achieve at the office than you think． "People just don't like using lights in a building with no plants， no views， no natural light，" says Sir Cary Cooper CBE， professor at Lancaster University in the UK． He led a 2015 study on the impact of biophilia in the workplace that surveyed 7，600 workers in 16 countries and found that even small nature-inspired changes can have a great effect． Responding to the Human Spaces Global Report， those who worked in environments with natural elements reported a 15% higher level of well-being， a 6% higher level of productivity and a 15% higher level of creativity． One third of them said the design of an office would affect their decisions to work for a company． Even so， 58% said there were no live plants at their workplaces and 47% reported having no natural light． An earlier， 2014 study by Cardiff University in Wales also showed that plants in the office make people happier and more productive． But more research is needed into biophilia， experts say．18.What's the purpose of the first paragraph？ ______ A.
