But Abbing welcmes what she sees as a shift.Peple nw want t learn abut and accept differences. “They shuld alstalk with peple with differences directly,ask them questins and listen t what they have t say,”she urged.

As a junir ecnmics reprter, I was nce given an assignment which made me panic. I was asked t write a stry abut an ecnmic cncept I didn't really understand. N ne else frm my team was arund. Searching nline left me mre cnfused. Just then, Martin Wlf, the chief ecnmics cmmentatr（评论员）in my cmpany，walked past my desk. I tk a deep breath and asked him. He explained it well in a few sentences and my prblem was unexpectedly slved.
Ever since then, I have been a big believer in asking “stupid" questins, by which I mean questins that yu fear make yu lk stupid. But I'm wrried this is a dying art. Prfessr Arvind Narayanan nce tld me that his students were always wrrying their questins might be silly, which made the vast majrity f his students tend t keep silent in lectures n matter hw he encuraged them, even when they were still filled with cnfusin.
Fear f asking "stupid" questins can lead yu t pretend yu knw mre than yu d, which als makes yu mre likely t believe whatever thers say. One study published in 2021 asked participants t rank their knwledge f a set f terms n a five-pint scale frm “never heard f it" t "knw it well, understand the cncept＂.Sme f the terms were real；thers were fake（伪造的）.The study fund that peple wh were mre willing t pretend they knw smething well were mre likely t fall fr nnsense f thers.
I knw nt everyne is lucky enugh t have a Martin Wlf wandering past their desk. But trust me, a jurnalist wh asks questins fr a living: mst peple really dn't mind being asked smething "stupid". If they d, it is prbably because they dn't really understand it themselves, r they have smething t hide. In that sense, yu learn smething useful either way.
28.Why des the authr mentin her encunter with Martin?
A.T describe a jurnalist's wrk pressure.
B.T shw the benefits f asking questins.
C.T present the best way t slve prblems.
D.T intrduce an ecnmics reprter's rutine.
29.What des the authr mean by saying "this is a dying art"?
A.Fewer peple tend t raise questins.
B.Few valuable questins are put frward.
C.Peple dn't knw hw t ask questins prperly.
D.Peple dn't feel ashamed f asking silly questins.
30.What des the 2021 study suggest?
A.Peple usually pretend t be knwledgeable.
B.Fake and real cncepts are hard t distinguish.
C.Peple shuldn't believe thers' wrds t quickly.
D.Fear f asking questins leads t bad cnsequences.
31.Which sectin f a website is this text mst likely frm?
A.Technlgy.
B.Opinin.
C.Friendship.
D.Culture.

D yu remember when Nelsn Mandela died? In the 1980s? In the 1990s? The answer is in 2013. The plitical figure was in prisn frm 1964 t 1990 befre receiving the Nbel Peace Prize in 1993 and being elected president in 1994. Hwever, many peple incrrectly remember him dying in prisn in the 1980s,which is hw the Mandela effect gets its name.
The Mandela effect is a phenmenn where a large number f peple believe smething happened, when in reality, it did nt. Fr example, many peple misremember details such as the clr f a snack packet r the name f a TV shw. A 2020 memry study fund that 76% f adults made at least ne detectable errr when asked t recall infrmatin, demnstrating that memry is nt accurate.
“The Mandela effect seems t be clsely related t a number f well-knwn memry phenmena," said Tim Hllins,a prfessr f experimental psychlgy at the University f Plymuth in the named three similar types f memry-related phenmena: “false memry,” which is the creatin f a memry that didn't happen;“surce-memry errrs,”which is when smene frgets the true surce f a memry；and “imaginatin inflatin（膨胀），”which is the tendency t believe smething is real when it is ften r vividly imagined.
Hwever,Hllins believes the phenmenn that is mst clsely cnnected t the Mandela effect is that f “gist memry,” which is when smene has a general idea f smething but can't necessarily remember the specifics.A cmmn example relates t the mnkey called Curius Gerge,a children's bk character that first appeared in the 1940s, and his lack f a tail.
“Remembering Curius Gerge as having a tail just reflects the fact that mst mnkeys have tails,” Hllins said. “If yu just remember the gist-it's a mnkey-why wuldn't yu remember him having a tail?”
32.What cntributes t the name f the Mandela effect?
A.Mandela passed away in the prisn.
B.Mandela received the Nbel Peace Prize.
C.Mandela's death was wrngly remembered.
D.Mandela's plitical ideas were well-received.
33.What des Paragraph 3 mainly talk abut?
A.Experiments related t memry phenmena.
B.Psychlgical causes fr the Mandela effect.
C.Memry prblems leading t the Mandela effect.
D.Scientific explanatin f memry-related prblems.
34.What can we learn abut ur memry frm the text?
A.It is nt as reliable as we think.
B.It can be imprved thrugh effrts.
C.Memries f details d nt last lng.
D.Imaginatin helps strengthen memry.
35.Which is a phenmenn f "gist memry" accrding t the text?
A.Imagining smething that didn't exist.
B.Recalling every wrd f a cnversatin.
C.Just preserving the memry f pleasant things.
D.Remembering nly key features f smething.
