All of us may have experienced embarrassing (令人尴尬的) moments. It could have been the time when you pronounced a simple word wrong in class or talked about someone else without realizing that they were right behind you.
Though these embarrassing moments don’t harm us a lot, they come back sometimes and make us always remember the feeling of strong embarrassment. What’s worse, these feelings may last for years. When these kinds of feelings return, they are known as a “cringe attack” (羞愧综合症).
Why do “cringe attacks” still appear in our daily lives though the things happened weeks, months, or even years ago? According to researchers, our brains catch feelings that can be easily noticed. The stronger the feeling is, the longer we will remember it. If you have a highly embarrassing moment, no matter what it is, your brain will try to catch it.
So how can we deal with this? Well, we can start by trying to be cool about our past. Think that you are not alone in your embarrassment — everyone fails or makes embarrassing mistakes. Instead of just trying to forget what we did, we should try to accept who we were and make changes for the better.
50．Why do we have “cringe attacks”?
A．Because we are cool about our past.
B．Because we remember our feelings for a long time.
C．Because we always have highly embarrassing moments.
D．Because our brains catch feelings that can be easily noticed.
51．How can we deal with embarrassing moments?
A．By sharing our embarrassment with others. B．By looking for others with the same feelings.
C．By realizing the harm of embarrassment. D．By accepting who we were and making changes.
52．What is the purpose of the text?
A．To help us forget what we did.
B．To help us face “cringe attack” correctly.
C．To help us avoid making embarrassing mistakes.
D．To help us describe some embarrassing moments.

Then, the monkey climbed down from the tree and went to the riverside. The monkey was planning to throw the net like the fisherman did. The monkey was confident (自信的) since he was good at imitating (模仿). Yet, the net went around the monkey when he touched it. Tied up in the net, the monkey fell into the water.
The monkey was regretful. “I should have learned how to use the net before touching it. After being unprepared and showing off, I am in a bad fix.”Luckily, the fisherman came back from lunch quickly and saw the monkey falling in the river. He saved the monkey’s life in time. After being saved, the monkey thanked the fisherman and learned that nothing can be achieved overnight.

Family support is important to Jin as well. “My father loves history, so we often talk about our reading experiences and our different ideas,” Jin said. “My mother always takes me to bookstores.

Can human and machines “talk” to each other? We often see this in films and on TV shows. In the 1960s TV play Star Trek, spaceships could reply to human voice orders. In the 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey, HAL 9000 is a computer that humans can talk to. It can play chess with humans and fix their spaceship.
This kind of technology, which helps machines understand human speech and act accordingly, is known as voice control, or voice recognition (识别).
Today, voice recognition is widely used for everyday tasks. Siri and Alexa, the voice recognition software (软件) made by Apple and Amazon are two examples. You can ask them to do many things, from setting the clock to turning on electric devices (设备) at home.
It’s also good for people with hearing problems. Speech recognition can be used to “listen” to spoken words and turn them into the text that deaf people can read. Excellent speech recognition software can even hear words spoken in one language and then translate them into another language.

The cat and chicken were both burned and needed treatment for their wounds. Firefighters quickly found water and called the Animal Home.
Niko Kuyper, the owner of the chicken, didn't know what had happened until a neighbor saw his animal on the news and told him. Kuyper recognized (认出) the chicken and he was even more surprised to see his chicken was staying with Whiskers, another neighbor's cat.

Graham Moore is the best-selling writer of The Sherlockian and the TV play The Imitation Game. His new book The Last Days of Night is out now. He is talking about some of his favorite books.

Murder in Three Acts by Agatha ChristieMy mother is a crime fiction (侦探小说) lover and, when I was having trouble learning to read, we'd sit in my bed at home in Chicago and take it in turns to read a passage. It was the first book I read cover-to-cover and I later became a writer because of that experience.

Cryptonomicon by Neal StephensonThis book showed me that historical novels need not be dry, but can be lively and enjoyable. Stephenson asks readers to take science seriously, but writes the story in a funny way. I have long known of Alan Turing, but Stephenson's skill of describing him was surprising.

A Visit from the Goon Squad by Jennifer EganEgan uses a writing method that I drew on when writing The Imitation Game. She tells short stories from different voices and times, and uses many ways that say to readers, "I've done a lot of work," says Egan. "But now you have to join in and work it out for yourselves."
"With my latest book, my greatest hope is that readers will want to get other people discussing the book. I've just started the conversation," says Graham Moore.
39．Which of the following is Graham Moore's latest book?
A．The Sherlockian B．The Last Days of Night
C．Cryptonomicon D．A Visit from the Goon Squad
40．What is Neal Stephenson good at writing according to the text?
A．Historical novels. B．Short stories. C．Crime fictions. D．TV plays.
41．Graham Moore shared his favorite books to________.

C．ask readers to take science seriously D．encourage readers to discuss his book

What happens to a wooden pencil after you wear it down to a stub ( 铅笔头)? It usually gets thrown away directly. Every year, 15 billion wooden pencils are made. That means a lot of pencil stubs are thrown away.
Sprout World, a company in Denmark, wants to cut down on this waste. It makes pencils that can grow into vegetables or houseplants. "A dying product is now giving life to a new product," says Michael Stausholm, the boss of the company.
Sprout World's pencils have a tiny box with them. The box is filled with seeds (种子). After you wear down the pencil, you plant the stub in the field. In a few weeks, the box will disappear and the seeds will grow into plants.
Stausholm developed this product in 2012 with a group of university students. At first, he sold his pencils only in Denmark, his home country. To his surprise, in just a few months, 70,000 pencils were sold. By 2014, Stausholm had sold a million pencils across Europe. Sprout World now sells about 450,000 pencils every month.
Now Stausholm is developing some new products, such as "plantable" greeting cards. "We know we can't save the planet just with our products," he says. "But at least, we can encourage people to look for reusable products to create less waste."

Luke Mickelson was a high school football coach. He coached his kids' sports teams. But when he met children who were sleeping on the floor, he decided to build and offer a bed to children in need.
"This little girl had a nest (窝) of clothes; it looked like a little bird's nest. And that's what her bed was," Mickelson said. "When we gave her the bed, she hugged it and just couldn't let go."
Surprised to discover how widespread this need was in his community, Mickelson founded Sleep in Heavenly Peace in 2012, an organization (组织) that builds and offers beds to children in need. The organization has offered more than 1,500 free beds. But along with its rapid growth, Mickelson was faced with a hard choice: keeping his job or his organization. He chose to leave his high-paying job and ran his organization.
