I am a worrier. I worry from the moment I wake to the moment I sleep.
Around a year ago, I found my worries __36__ me down and down. I needed a way to reduce my __37__ and make them disappear. Then a brilliant idea occurred to me. Instead of worrying about whatever __38__ itself to my consciousness at any given moment, and unless I had a __39__ and urgent worry to deal with, I'd __40__ myself to worrying about imaginary gluons.
This new system __41__ me quite well for a while __42__ the day last month when the captain of the plane I was travelling on failed in his landing __43__ at Shannon Airport, because there was “a problem” with the landing gear(起落架)．We __44__ for a while. Then the captain announced the issue still couldn't be solved and that the crew would take us through the __45__ for an emergency landing.

And as the plane landed perfectly—because, as it __52__， the problem was with a sensor and not with the landing gear—and people __53__ and hugged one another, I realized I wasn't a __54__ at all. The absence of worry I had just experienced was __55__ an absence of any possibility of control. So I'm a control freak, wanting to control everything.

Descriptions of Dental Plan Types
● DHMO Dental Plans：A DHMO is a type of “managed care”. In this plan, a network of highly qualified dentists provides affordable care for individuals. Consumers choose a dentist from the network, and they pay a low monthly premium to receive services at no cost or a reduced price. The participating dentists receive fixed monthly fees.
● PPO Dental Insurance Plans: Another type of managed care plan is called a preferred provider organization (PPO). Consumers with PPOs select a dentist from a network of preferred dental providers who provide dental care to members at reduced rates.
● Indemnity Dental Insurance Plans: A dental indemnity plan, also known as “traditional” insurance, allows consumers to choose from the largest pool of dentists. Individuals are free to visit any dentist, unlike those with managed care plans. Subscribers pay their dentist's bill in full and then submit a claim for payment.
● Discount Dental Plans: Discount dental plans (DDPs) are not insurance. However, they help consumers save on dental care costs. Members make monthly or annual payments and may receive unlimited dental care services at discount prices based on a fee schedule. Services are provided by dentists who participate in the plan's dental network.

Thousands of free, popular children's apps available on the Google Play Store could be violating the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), according to a new, large­scale study, highlighting growing criticism of Silicon Valley's data­collection efforts. “This is a market failure，” said Serge Egelman, a co­author of the study. “What we have uncovered points out basic enforcement(执行) work that needs to be done.”
The potential violations were abundant and came in several forms, according to the study. More than 1，000 children's apps collected identifying information from kids using tracking software whose terms explicitly forbid their use for children's apps. The researchers also said nearly half the apps fail to always use standard security measures to transmit sensitive data over the Web, suggesting a violation of reasonable data­security measures laid out by COPPA.
Some of the apps in question included Disney's “Where's My Water？”， Gameloft's “Minion Rush” and Duolingo, a language learning app. The findings also suggested that app creators that had been officially recognized as COPPA­compliant(遵守) were no better than any of the other app developers at protecting children's privacy.
Disney argued that the study doesn't claim to identify any actual violations. “Protecting children's online privacy is very important to us and we are confident that our practices comply with the law，” the company said. “We have a sound COPPA compliance program, and we maintain strict data collection and use policies for Disney apps created for children and families.”
Gameloft announced that children's privacy is of “utmost importance” and is investigating the issue. “We have a very strict data­collection policy at Gameloft and always make sure that we are compliant with protection laws，” the company said.
Duolingo did not respond to requests for comment.
Although Google stated that “We are taking the researcher's report very seriously and looking into their findings”， critics of Google's app platform say the company has profited greatly from advances in data­tracking technology. “Google has basically looked the other way while it was able to generate revenues off of children's apps，” said Jeffrey Chester, the executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy. “The new, alarming report is further evidence that Google is thumbing_its_nose_at the only federal online privacy law that we have.”
(　　)58. How did companies respond to the accusation of violating COPPA?
A. Disney claimed to strictly obey privacy laws.
B. Gameloft questioned the validity of the study.
C. Duolingo planned to adopt strict data­collection policies.
D. Google admitted to the charge and promised to do more.
(　　)59. What does the underlined phrase “thumbing its nose at” probably mean?
A. Observing. 　 B. Disrespecting. 　 C. Prohibiting. 　 D. Introducing.
(　　)60. The purpose of the passage is to ________．
A. charge app companies with the violation of COPPA
B. inform readers of different ways to violate child privacy laws
C. illustrate the growing criticism of app's data­collection function
D. highlight the urgency of strengthening enforcement of COPPA
C
To err is human. Society is suffering from an inability to acknowledge as much.
For individuals, errors are painful. The trick, then, is to err well: to recognize mistakes and learn from them. Worryingly, humanity may be getting worse at admitting its mistakes.
Few enjoy the feeling of being caught out in an error. But real trouble starts when the desire to avoid a punishment leads to a refusal to deal with contrary evidence. Economists often assume that pe
