Stubbornly,we wait for someone else to reach out to us believing this is the
11、only way we can forgive or rekindle a friendship or family relationship. A friend of mine,recently told me that she hadnt 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 wouldt speak to him again unless he called first. When I
12、 suggested that she be the one to reach out,she said,“ I cant do that. Hes 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 offeredanapology of his own. A
13、s isusuallythecase,when someonetakesthechanceandreaches out,everyone wins. Whenever weholdontoour anger,weturn“ smallstuff”问题)”intoreally“ big stuff” inour 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
14、must understand that being right is almost never more im-portant than allowing yourself to be happy. The way to be happy is to let go,and reach out. Let other people be right. This doesnt mean that you re wrong. Everything will be fine. Youll experience the peace of letting go,as well as the joy of
15、letting others be right. You11 also 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 dont, thats okay too. You 11 have the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your p
16、art to create a more loving world,and certainly you11 be more peaceful yourself.21.The underlined word “ rekindle” in Paragraph 1 probably means “ ”.A. recover B.developC. accept D.replace22.

Its necessary to enjoy our friendship andfamilyrelationship.B While I will explain a bit about the science of stress and relaxa
19、tion a little later r simple way to think about it is that our body s stress response works like a car alarm. keep ussafeby warningus of thepresenceofdanger inourimmediateenvironment. But instead of warning us with a loud and annoying sound,our body alarm system lets us know that something is wrong
20、by creating changes in our neurochemistry (神经化学).If youve ever experienced painin your stomach,periodsofextremeanger,inabilitytofocus or eveninsomnia(失目民),chances are your body was paying the price in those moments for the brain chemistry of stress. So if its so uncomfortable,why not just get rid of
21、 stress altogether? This is not only impractical,it would be dangerous. Lets go back to the metaphor (比喻说法) of the car alarm. If the alarm is turned off altogether,the car is exposed to continual danger without there being any way of your knowing about it until it is too late. It would be like walki
22、ng through the jungle without any fear signal in the presence of a poisonous snake or other dangerous animals while it might feel “nice” to be so relaxed,your body actually needs the stress response not only to remind you of danger but also to offer extra adrenaline (肾上腺素) for your heart and extra b
23、loodand oxygen for your arms and legs. However,if the car alarm goes off at any time,someone just looks at the car with a bit of an atti- tude,and it becomes equally useless. Not only do we stop paying attention to it,but it begins to drive us and everyone around us becomes a little bit crazy. In th
24、e case of our bodies,walking around in a constant state of alarm also has some pretty alarming health consequences,which we will explore in greater depth in the next chapter.25.Our bodys stress response is compared to a car alarm in that .A.they work all the time B. theybothgive asignalC.they work i

36、are using it for their signature. Learning this handwriting was a usual practice in school for several decades. However, in 2011, the Indiana Department of Education made it optional (可选择的)for schools to teachcursivewritingtothestudents.In fact,therewere 46morestateswhohavedonethesame.There are some
37、 who believe that it is high time for cursive to retire from school curriculum. After all,if we don t leave the past behind,we cannot make way for new things. If you walk into any classroom,youwouldfindchildrenusingkeyboardstocommunicateinwritten form. Onthe other hand,fans of this cursive insist on
38、 its usefulness. They remind us that if we stop teaching and learning cursive in schools,very soon most of our historical documents will become hard to us. Where do we stand on this subject?
