【题目】 “Indeed,” George Washington wrote in his diary in 1785, “some kind of fly, or bug, had begun to eat the leaves before I left home.” But the father of America was not the father of bug. When Washington wrote that, Englishmen had been referring to insects as bugs for more than a century, and Americans had already created lightning-bug(萤火虫). But the English were soon to stop using the bugs in their language, leaving it to the Americans to call a bug a bug in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
The American bug could also be a person, referring to someone who was crazy about a particular activity. Although fan became the usual term, sports fans used to be called racing bugs, baseball bugs, and the like.
Or the bug could be a small machine or object, for example, a bug-shaped car. The bug could also be a burglar alarm, from which comes the expression to bug, that is, “to install (安装) an alarm”. Now it means a small piece of equipment that people use for listening secretly to others’ conversation. Since the 1840s, to bug has long meant “to cheat”, and since the 1940s it has been annoying.
We also know the bug as a flaw in a computer program or other design. That meaning dates back to the time of Thomas Edison. In 1878 he explained bugs as “little problems and difficulties” that required months of study and labor to overcome in developing a successful product. In 1889 it was recorded that Edison “had been up the two previous nights discovering ‘a bug’ in his invented record player.”
【1】We learn from Paragraph 1 that ________.
A. Americans had difficulty in learning to use the word bug
B. George Washington was the first person to call an insect a bug
C. the word bug was still popularly used in English in the nineteenth century
D. both Englishman and Americans used the word bug in the eighteenth century
【2】What does the word “flaw” in the last paragraph probably mean
A. explanation. B. finding. C. origin. D. fault.
【3】The passage is mainly concerned with________.
A. the misunderstanding of the word bug
B. the development of the word bug
C. the public views of the word bug
D. the special characteristics of the word bug

We are humans，and we all make mistakes. The mistakes that we make are not usually on purpose，whether it is breaking a vase，or not completing a task. 【1】 This article will provide you with ideas as to what to do once a mistake has been made.
Admit that you make a mistake as soon as you discover it. Delaying it longer will only make you feel worse，or may drive you toward making the wrong decision to try and cover it up.
【2】 Do not play the“blame game"．Most people are smart enough to realize that this is just a poor attempt to protect yourself. Perhaps you gave a task to another person and it was never completed. But is it really the entire fault of the person you gave the task to or is it partially your fault for not following up? Keep this in mind before placing the blame on someone else.
【3】 Maybe you broke your mother's favorite vase，or even forgot a friend's birthday. Just an apology can sometimes be viewed as a“quick fix"，and apologizing and asking to be forgiven gives the person opportunity to forgive you.
Offer some compensation（补偿）for loss，damage，or injury caused. 【4】 By doing this，it may soften the blow to the person we've disappointed.
Learn from your mistakes. In the case of a job or a task，write a“to-do" list with the deadline before leaving the meeting. As for forgetting a birthday，put the birthday on an electronic calendar for next year.
Do better next time. 【5】We should try to understand what happened and try to make sure that it won't happen again.
A. Take responsibility.
B. Never repeat your mistakes.
C. Apologize and ask for forgiveness.
D. People’s faith in us can reduce quickly.
E. So sometimes it is necessary to write a letter to say sorry.
F. But not everyone knows how to admit making a mistake.
G. Offer to immediately complete the late task or pay for the vase.
