📖 題組：
Jensen Huang (黃仁勳) is the chief executive of NVIDIA, a leading company that makes chips used in artificial intelligence ( AI ). In 2023, Huang was listed among the 100 most influential people in AI. An inspiration to many, Huang encourages young people to seize the opportunities that AI will present. Meanwhile, he reminds them to take a positive attitude towards challenges. In a speech to university graduates in Taiwan last year, Huang shared two important lessons he has learned in the past three decades. The first lesson is not to be discouraged by failure. In 1996, his company nearly closed down due to rapid changes in the industry. They soon realized that they had made a mistake, and Huang humbly asked a major customer for help. With the customer’s support, the company moved on to invent the chip that led to their future success. Huang’s advice is to always honestly face your mistakes and seek help. The second lesson is to keep going despite difficulties. In 2007, the company made an expensive investment on product improvements. The new products were not selling well for many years until they started being used for machine learning. The experience taught Huang and his colleagues to handle the pain and suffering needed to achieve their vision. Their continued efforts help build NVIDIA into a global leader in AI technologies. Huang’s life story is also about pushing oneself to do better. Born in Taiwan, Huang moved to the United States at the age of nine. He later earned two engineering degrees before working for two chip companies. In 1993, on his 30th birthday, he and two friends founded NVIDIA. Today, Huang often advises students to live a life of purpose, and to run, not walk, towards their goals.

在閱讀測驗中，掌握主旨（Main Idea）的核心在於歸納文章各段落論點的「交集」。請仔細分析文中提到的兩個關鍵教訓：第一個關於如何面對 $1996$ 年的失敗（failure）與錯誤，第二個則關於如何處理 $2007$ 年後長期的投資瓶頸與痛苦（pain and suffering）；這兩者共同指向了在面對人生的挑戰或負面處境時，應具備何種應對機制與心理素質？

噢，恭喜，你這次沒掉進明顯的陷阱。
- 觀念驗證：這題考的嘛，是文章主旨 (Main Idea)。拜託，黃仁勳講晶片那些只是他出場的背景，不是重點。如果你只看到 NVIDIA 或 AI 就選，那也太容易被騙了吧？核心在於那兩點：
- 第一點：犯錯？誠實面對 (honestly face mistakes)，找人幫忙，別像個懦夫一樣躲起來。
