4.So many of us hold on to little complaints that may have come from an argument,a misunderstanding,the way we were raised,or some other painful events.Stubbornly,we wait for someone else to reach out to us-believing this is the only way we can forgive or rekindle a friendship or family relationship.A friend of mine,recently told me that she hadn't spoken to her son in almost three years.She said that she and her son had had a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldn't speak to him again unless he called first.When I suggested that she be the one to reach out,she said,"I can't do that.He's the one who should apologize."After a little gentle encouragement,however,she did decide to be the first one to reach out.To her amazement,her son was grateful for her willingness to call and offered an apology of his own.As is usually the case,when someone takes the chance and reaches out,everyone wins.
Whenever we hold on to our anger,we turn"small stuff"(问题)"into really"big stuff"in our minds.We start to believe that our positions are more important than our happiness.They are not.If you want to be a more peaceful person you must understand that being right is almost never more important than allowing yourself to be happy.The way to be happy is to let go,and reach out.Let other people be right.This doesn't mean that you're wrong.Everything will be fine.You'll experience the peace of letting go,as well as the joy of letting others be right.
You'11also notice that,as you reach out and let others be"right",they will become less defensive and more loving toward you.They might even reach back.But,if for some reason they don't,that's okay too.You'll have the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part to create a more loving world,and certainly you'll be more peaceful yourself.

分析 本文是一篇记叙文,通过朋友与儿子之间的争吵以及最终和好的过程,让我们明白了伸出援手和道歉才能赢得和平与幸福.
解答 ACDB
29.A 考查词义猜测.根据下文举例说明的内容:我的朋友和她的儿子因为不同意见而三年不说话,然后在我鼓励下,她主动与儿子联系,消除了隔阂,恢复了关系.可知"rekindle a friendship or family relationship"指的是"恢复友谊或者亲情."所以rekindle就是recover的意思,A正确.
30.C 考查推理判断.文章第三段提到"Let other people be right.This doesn't mean that you're wrong."让他人(观点)正确,这并不意味着你是不对的,而我们总是放不下,总认为自己的看法更重要,反而损害了彼此的关系,据此推断C是正确答案.
31.D 考查推理判断.根据朋友与儿子之间的争吵,不说话,关系闹得很僵到后来主动联系,改善关系的实例可以推断出,争吵之后最好的解决方案就是首先向对方道歉,至于谁对谁错并不重要,所以D是正确答案.
32.B 考查主旨大意.文章的中心意思是发生争吵之后不要纠结于谁对谁错,而是要主动与对方交流,表达自己的歉意.能概括这一中心的只有标题"reach out and give""试着沟通并给予(道歉)",B是最好的标题.
点评 阅读理解考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力,做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句,和题干进行比较,再做出正确的选择.在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.
