Okpe, fr ne, has taken this t heart. She helped create an app called Makk Fresh, enabling fishermen like her father t sell seafd directly t custmers. She even wants t becme a sftware engineer and hpes t study cmputer science at Harvard.“One thing I want my girls t hld nt is that, regardless f where they are cming frm, they can make it,” Ajayi said. “They are cders.

[2020·青岛市高三统一质量检测]In life, nce n a path, we tend t fllw it, fr better r wrse.What's sad is that even if it's the latter, we ften accept it anyway because we are s used t the way things are that we dn't even recgnize that they culd be different. This is a phenmenn psychlgists call functinal fixedness.
This classic experiment will give yu an idea f hw it wrks and a sense f whether yu may have fallen int the same trap:
Peple are given a bx f tacks (大头钉) and sme matches and asked t find a way t attach a candle t a wall s that it burns prperly. Typically, the subjects try tacking the candle t the wall r lighting it t fix it with melted wax. The psychlgists had, f curse,arranged it s that neither f these bvius appraches wuld wrk. The tacks are t shrt, and the paraffin (石蜡) desn't stick t the wall. S hw can yu cmplete the task? The successful technique is t use the tack bx as a candle hlder. Yu empty it, tack it t the wall, and stand the candle inside it. T think f that, yu have t lk beynd the bx's usual rle as a receptacle just fr tacks and reimagine it serving an entirely new purpse. That is difficult because we all suffer t ne degree r anther frm functinal fixedness.
The inability t think in new ways affects peple in every crner f sciety. The plitical therist Hannah Arendt cined the phrase “frzen thughts” t describe deeply held ideas that we n lnger questin but shuld. In Arendt's eyes, the selfcntent reliance n such accepted “truths” als made peple blind t ideas that didn't fit their wrld view, even when there was plenty f evidence fr them.
Frzen thinking has nthing t d with intelligence, she said. “It can be fund in highly intelligent peple.”
9.What des the underlined wrd “it” in Paragraph 2 refer t?
A.The experiment. B.Functinal fixedness.
C.The path. D.The thinking.
10.Which way is hard t think f t cmplete the task?
A.Tacking the candle t the wall.
B.Fixing the candle with melted wax.
C.Using the tack bx as a candle hlder.
D.Lighting the candle t stand it.
11.Which f the fllwing statements will Hannah Arendt agree with?
A.Peple shuld questin.
B.We shuld be used t the way things are.
C.Peple shuldn't accept the idea that desn't fit their wrld view.
D.The smarter peple are, the mre pen they are t the new things.
12.What's the passage mainly abut?
