Every year, TIME magazine puts out its list of the year's best inventions. Some of these help us solve problems. Others make life easier,or more fun.
White Paint
Most white paint reflects 80% to 90% of the sunlight that strikes it. The rest of the light warms the area around. But a new white paint reflects up to 98% of the sunlight. “The heat is reflected into deep space,” Xiulin Ruan says. He led the Purdue University team that created the paint.
Virtual Animals
In the zoo in Brisbane, Australia, you can see a herd of elephants walking toward you. “It's really about showing people things they have never seen before," says Bruce Dell, the zoo’s CEO. Visitors can meet virtual(虚拟的)animals such as polar bears and whales in action. It's a way for the public to see wildlife that doesn't need to be kept in the zoo.
Flying cars
There are plenty of flying cars being developed these days. But not many look like a car. “We started calling everything a flying car,” says Jim Dukhovny. He's the CEO of Alef Aeronautics. The company's Model A is a two-seat all-electric car. It has a flight range of 110miles. And it looks as if it should be parked in a garage(车库).
Moonwalkers
These might look like skates. But they're actually battery-powered(电池驱动的)shoes with wheels. They let you walk normally-just faster and more easily. Moonwalkers are made by Shift Robotics. They use AI to sense when you're speeding up or slowing down, and adjust themselves accordingly. The wheels lock when you're taking the stairs.
36. What can the new white paint do to our cities?

More and more workplaces are bringing together talented people in flexible, virtual work environments. We'd love to share these strategies your team can use for remote meetings.
Review your tools. __________41__________ Everyone on your team should have a very good headset (头戴式耳机). During video conferences, a headset makes an incredible difference in call quality-and prevents those annoying echoes.
Invest in videoconferencing. __________42__________For example, buying high-quality cameras for each conference room. It's a work in progress and there's always room for improvement.
Have a standing meeting. Your team should do a regularly scheduled team meeting every week to help everyone all stay on the same page. This is where you and your team talk through launches, outages, what you're working on, who's going on vacation soon. __________43__________
__________44__________ Your team members must have access to a room of their own-one with a door. If they have this in their home and prefer to work there, excellent. If they don't, help them find a convenient room to use. This is required because the ability to control your environment and get heads down is very important for development work.
Turn on the camera for the meeting. __________45__________ Also, if a few team members are together in one meeting room and others are remote, it is the meeting organizer's job to normalize the experience for everyone.
A. Get a room.
B. Good communication starts with great tools.

Moonwalkers
These might look like skates. But they're actually battery-powered(电池驱动的)shoes with wheels. They let you walk normally-just faster and more easily. Moonwalkers are made by Shift Robotics.

More and more workplaces are bringing together talented people in flexible, virtual work environments. We'd love to share these strategies your team can use for remote meetings.

Invest in videoconferencing. __________42__________For example, buying high-quality cameras for each conference room. It's a work in progress and there's always room for improvement.
Have a standing meeting. Your team should do a regularly scheduled team meeting every week to help everyone all stay on the same page. This is where you and your team talk through launches, outages, what you're working on, who's going on vacation soon. __________43__________
__________44__________ Your team members must have access to a room of their own-one with a door. If they have this in their home and prefer to work there, excellent. If they don't, help them find a convenient room to use. This is required because the ability to control your environment and get heads down is very important for development work.
Turn on the camera for the meeting. __________45__________ Also, if a few team members are together in one meeting room and others are remote, it is the meeting organizer's job to normalize the experience for everyone.
A. Get a room.
B. Good communication starts with great tools.
