📖 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.

本題的解題核心在於區分文本中的「主動意向性行動」($intentional actions$) 與「客觀時序事實」($chronological facts$)。請重新閱讀文章最後一段，判斷在「自我精進」($pushing oneself to do better$) 的語境中，哪一個選項僅描述了隨時間流逝而自然達到的生命狀態，而非黃仁勳先生憑藉個人意志、努力或選擇所達成的具體事蹟？
