8、ful.BThe first patient who died on my watch was an older man with a faulty heart.We tried to slow it down withtreatment,but it suddenly stopped beating completely.Later,whenever I would have a case like that one,I foundmyself second-guessing my clinical management.However,it turns out that thinking

14、ttacks had actually fallen that year and,according to thestudy,such a change was probably unnecessary given the extremely small risk of such an attack happening.Humans are likely to be influenced by emotional and often irrational(不理性的)thinking when processinginformation,bad events and mistakes.As mu

15、ch as we dont want to cause an unfortunate event to happen again,we need to be aware that a worst situation that can be imagined doesnt necessarily mean we did anything wrong.When we overthink,we fail to rely on thinking based on what we know or have experienced.Instead,we mayinvoluntarily overanaly

16、ze and come to the wrong conclusion.I have treated dozens of patients who presented with the same illnesses as my first patient,who died morethan a year ago.Instead of second-guessing myself,I trusted my clinical instinct(本能)and stayed the course.Every one of those patients survived.You should trust

22、d that this also allowed forplants to warn one another of potential harm.The study showed Broad Beans used the fungal network to spy onone another for upcoming danger.Like our Internet,this fungal connectivity is also full of crime.Some plants,such as Golden Marigolds havebeen found to release poiso

23、ns into the network to slow down the growth of surrounding plants in the fight forwater and light.Other plants,such as the Phantom Orchid,do not have the chlorophyll(叶绿素)and must get thenecessary nutrients from surrounding plants.Research suggests that animals such as insects and worms may be able t
