Explanation:

The given question refers to the text The best way to deal with failure written by Selin Malkoc. The text tells us about how we should cope with failure - instead of not paying attention to our negative emotions caused by it, we should embrace them. This can help us do better in the future and avoid additional failures in similar tasks. This is what experiments confirmed, as well. However, this method doesn't seem to improve our performance in tasks unrelated to the task in which we had previously failed.

This is why option B is the correct one.
