What's the Cre Idea?
Peña describes human behavir thrugh fur "frces" — related t emtin, thinking, cmmunicatin, and scial envirnment — each linked t key brain parts:
The mdel explains why we fcus n certain gals and feel unsatisfied when these frces are ut f balance.

Peña uses everyday examples — like why a stressful email makes yur amygdala react — t make brain science useful and easy t put int actin. Yu'll learn t ntice when emtin is strnger than reasn and hw t imprve cmmunicatin fr better relatinships.

After a wait f 22 years, Barbara Mrgan finally achieved her lifetime dream. The spaceship Endeavr was launched n August 8, carrying her and six ther crew members int space.
Mrgan, a frmer schl teacher, was n a tw - week trip t the Internatinal Space Statin (ISS). This makes her the first prfessinal teacher wh has experienced flying in space. Mrgan's main duties include taking gds frm Endeavr t the ISS and cntrlling the spaceship's rbtic arms t help set up new statin hardware. She will als teach a six - hur curse t students n the Earth. She tk a plant with her nt the spaceship. She will use it t explain hw plants grw in space. Mrgan hpes that it will encurage students t think abut hw future astrnauts might grw fd n missins t the mn and Mars. "The task frce highlighted the need t mtivate students t pursue the science and engineering fields," said Mrgan in a pre - flight interview.
Mrgan was a 55 - year - ld elementary schl teacher befre she became an astrnaut. She was chsen as the backup candidate fr NASA's Teacher in Space prgram in 1985. But it was nt until 1998 that she became a full - time astrnaut. During her training she witnessed tw spaceflight tragedies (悲剧) — the 1986 Challenger explsin and the 2003 Clumbia accident. But she was nt put ff. Smething deep inside f her made her push n with the wrk.
"There's nthing mre imprtant than ur kids and ur future and keeping their future pen - ended," said Mrgan. Mrgan als hpes that her flight will be the first f many jurneys fr astrnauts wh are als educatrs. After her return t the Earth last Wednesday, Mrgan wishes t cntinue her belved career — being an elementary schl teacher.
24. During the missin, Mrgan played the fllwing rles except ______.

Managers are better equipped than ever t make gd decisins. They are mre aware that human judgment is subject t errrs. They have tns f data abut their custmers and prducts. They can use artificial intelligence (AI) t analyse, summarize and prcess infrmatin with nce - impssible speed. But as cmpanies shift frm relying n instincts (直觉) t making decisins based n data, they need t be alive t a different set f risks.
In a recent paper Linda and her c - authrs identify a bias that they call "quantificatin fixatin". The risk f depending n data alne fr judgment is familiar; it is smetimes referred t as the McNamara fallacy (麦克纳马拉谬误). But Linda and her c - authrs help explain why peple put disprprtinate weight n numbers thrugh an experiment.
In the experiment, participants were asked t imagine chsing between tw sftware engineers fr a prmtin. One engineer had been assessed as mre likely t climb the ladder but less likely t stay at the firm; the ther, by cntrast, had a higher prbability f staying but a lwer chance f advancement. The researchers varied the way that this infrmatin was presented. They fund that participants were mre likely t chse n the basis f future prmtin prspects when nly that criterin was quantified, and t select n staying prbability when that was the thing with a number attached.
One answer t this bias is t quantify everything. But nt everything translates cleanly int numbers. A firm's culture is harder t express as a number fr jb - seekers than its salary levels. Data can tell an early - stage investr mre abut a startup's financials than a funder's resilience (韧性). The prblem is that they d nt always tell the whle stry.
This is nt t claim that humans always make better decisins than machines. Far frm it. But it is a warning. Numbers prmise precisin, certainty and bjectivity. They have imperfectins, t.
28. What best defines the "McNamara fallacy" in paragraph 2?
A. Priritizing quality ver quantity.B. Underestimating the develpment f AI.
C. Overvaluing instincts in judgment.D. Making decisins merely based n data.
29. What can be inferred abut data frm Linda's experiment?
A. They eliminate subjective criteria.
B. They enhance peple's freedm f chice.
C. They facilitate cmparisn effectively.
D. They illustrate the cmplexity f assessment.
30. What is paragraph 4 mainly abut regarding the quantificatin f everything?
A. The methds.B. The principles.C. The limitatins.D. The applicatins.
31. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Maximize the Value f DataB. Be Alert t the Dangers f Data
C. Identify Biases thrugh DataD. Accept the Imperfectins f Data

In the past, fireprfing materials were made with pisnus, flame - prfing chemicals. These have been replaced with ther chemicals, which are cnsidered safer, but sme studies have linked these alternatives with brain damage and harm t water creatures. Tien Huynh at a University in Melburne, Australia, and her clleagues have develped a mre ec - friendly fireprfing material using mycelium — the rt - like structure f fungi (真菌).
They grew mycelium frm the fungi that can be eaten in cntainers f liquid mlasses — a byprduct f sugar prductin. The mycelium grew as blankets n tp f the mlasses, which the researchers remved and dried befre pressing them int millimetre - thin sheets. When the mycelium sheets were expsed t 800℃ flames, an uter layer f char (碳化) was quickly generated t prevent the rest f the sheets frm burning. "The material caught fire fr abut ne secnd then ceased burning," Huynh says. "The sheets nly prduced water and carbn dixide (CO₂) when they were set n fire, making them safer than existing fireprfing chemicals."
The team nw hpes t develp fire - resistant cating fr hmes and ther buildings ut f the fungi, which culd be applied as a wallpaper - thin sheet r made int thicker panels. "The material appears t be highly durable," says Huynh. Her team previusly used it t make bricks, and she says she has had ne sitting in her rm fr 10 years that hasn't shwn any signs f breaking dwn. "I can still jump n it because it's s strng," she says. "The fungus is killed during the drying prcess, s there is n danger f mushrms grwing ut f the sheets."
Hwever, scaling up prductin f the material culd be challenging. "The fungi dn't need light r electricity t grw, but they d need a big space if yu want t grw enugh fr the building industry," says Huynh. "Because they're bilgical rganisms, they're als easy t be cntaminated (污染)." But Haynh mentins that her team has been apprached by industry grups that may be able t assist with this scale - up prcess.
32. Hw is paragraph 1 rganized?
A. Histry → Current state → Future predictinB. Prblem → Existing slutin → New slutin
C. Descriptin → Definitin → RecmmendatinD. Assumptin → Supprting details → Cnclusin
33. What stps the mycelium sheets frm burning?
A. The applicatin f liquid mlasses.
B. The absrptin f heat by inner parts.
C. The frmatin f a prtective cver.
D. The release f fire - prfing chemicals.
34. Hw des Huynh emphasize the material's durability?
A. By giving an example.B. By quting thers.
C. By making a cmparisn.D. By using statistics.
35. What des Huynh think f the prductin scale - up f the material?
A. It is unlikely.B. It is easily achievable.
C. It is unrealistic.D. It is cautiusly prmising.

The dwnside f creating gd habits
Habits create the fundatin fr mastery. In chess, it is nly after the basic mvements f the pieces have becme autmatic that a player can fcus n the next level f the game. Each unit f infrmatin that is memrized pens up the mental space fr mre effrtful thinking. 36 When yu knw the simple mvements s well that yu can perfrm them withut thinking, yu are free t pay attentin t mre advanced details. In this way, habits are the backbne f any pursuit f excellence.
Hwever, the benefits f habits cme at a cst. At first, each repetitin develps fluency, speed, and skill. 37 Yu fall int mindless repetitin. It becmes easier t let mistakes slide. When yu can d it gd enugh n autpilt, yu stp thinking abut hw t d it better.
The upside f habits is that we can d things withut thinking. The dwnside f habits is that yu get used t ding things a certain way and stp paying attentin t little errrs. 38 In reality, yu are merely reinfrcing yur current habits — nt imprving them. In fact, sme research has shwn that nce a skill has been mastered there is usually a slight decline in perfrmance ver time.
39 T achieve tp levels f perfrmance, yu need a refined apprach. Yu can't repeat the same things blindly and expect t becme exceptinal. What yu need is a cmbinatin f autmatic habits and deliberate practice. After ne habit has been mastered, yu have t return t the effrtful part f the wrk.
Old tasks becme easier the secnd time arund, but it desn't get easier verall because nw yu're puring yur energy int the next challenge. Each habit unlcks the next level f perfrmance. 40
A. It's an endless cycle.
B. This is true fr any attempt.
C. Next, yu will get mre psitive feedback.
D. Habits are necessary, but nt sufficient fr mastery.
E. With habits like these, gd enugh is usually gd enugh.
F. Yu assume yu're getting better because yu're gaining experience.
G. But then, as a habit becmes autmatic, yu becme less sensitive t feedback.
