22、So many of us hold on to little resentments (怨恨) that may have resulted from an argument, a misunderstanding, 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 (重新点燃) a friendship or family relationship.

An acquaintance of mine, whose health isn’t very good, recently told me that she hasn’t spoken to her son in almost three years. “Why not?” I asked. 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 resisted at first and said, “I can’t do that. He’s the one who should say sorry.” She was literally (简直) willing to die before reaching out to her only son. 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 sincerely said sorry to her. 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 thing” into really “big thing” 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’ll also notice that, as you reach out and let others be “right”, they will become less defensive and more loving towards you. They might even reach back. But, if for some reason they don’t, that’s okay too. You will have the inner satisfaction of knowing that you have done your part to create a more loving world, and certainly you will be more peaceful yourself.

【1】What happened to the author’s acquaintance after she called her son?

A．She was literally willing to die.

B．She received her son’s apology.

C．She was encouraged by the author.

D．She realized her mistakes.

【2】What does the author want to explain by taking her acquaintance as an example?

A．That it is beneficial for both sides to reach out first.

B．That a gentle encouragement will be helpful to solve the problem.

C．That painful events should be forgotten.

D．That parents and children are easier to make peace.

【3】We can infer from the third paragraph that ________.

A．happiness matters more than preventing the embarrassment at reaching out first

B．to be peaceful is more important than to be right in any disagreement

C．to avoid arguments and misunderstandings means seeking for happiness

D．holding on to the right position leads to resentments

【4】According to the passage, you can be more peaceful by ________.

A．trying your best to complete your own work perfectly

B．helping others create their inner content

C．being active and forgetting unpleasantness

D．understanding the importance of being less defensive

A．many people hold on to little resentments

B．letting others be right will definitely make them reach back

C．children should apologize to their parents first

D．it’s good to be the first one to reach out to break little resentments

23、   If you’ve made a routine of a daily walk, congratulations! You’re getting many benefits of a walk. But there’s one simple mistake that could be putting your life at risk. Almost 129,000 pedestrians were injured, and 5,376 were killed in traffic crashes in the United States in 2015, according to the Center for Disease Control (CDC). 【1】.

Luckily, there are some steps you can take to stay safe on foot. Sure, you drive on the right side of the road in the US, but that’s not where you should be as a pedestrian.【2】. Walking on a sidewalk can 100% guarantee your safety. But if you have to stay on the road, the CDC recommends walking toward traffic.

Seems like it couldn’t make much difference. 【3】. Simply walking against traffic instead of with it cut the risk of getting hit by a car by an average of 77%, according to the findings.

【4】. Well, if you walk the same direction you’d drive, the cars closest to you are coming from behind. That means you’d need to rely on the driver to see you and react if it’s coming up too closely. If the person behind the wheel is not absorbed, you could end up injured—or worse.

On the other hand, when you’re walking against traffic, you can see the cars heading toward you. Facing those vehicles lets you see danger coming and get out of the way if necessary, and you aren’t putting your life in the hands of every driver who passes.【5】. Or skip the busy streets entirely and learn to “mall walk” in the long corridors of shopping malls.

A. If there’s a sidewalk available, you should always use it

B. Where it is convenient and clear, make sure to take the route

C. Next time you go for a walk or run, face the traffic and keep watchful

D. You may be taken aback by such a big difference between the choices

E. Look backwards and forwards all the time when you walk along the traffic

F. This means one crash-related pedestrian death every 1.6 hours

G. But a study of car accidents between 2006 and 2010 would argue otherwise

24、   Human activities are killing wildlife at an alarming rate, with causes ranging from environmental pollution to the built environment. For bird species, nighttime collisions (碰撞) with power lines are driving significant population decline. But now scientists have come up with a clever way to make the lines easier for birds to spot, without being ugly to humans.

Industry and U. S. Fish & Wildlife Service guidelines recommended that electricity companies mark their power lines with plastic attachments to make it more visible, but birds were still dying. Biologists reported that 300 Sandhill cranes (鹤) perished in one month in 2019 from collisions with marked lines at the Rowe Sanctuary ‘in Nebraska, where the cranes stopped over during their annual spring migration. “We need forward-thinking methods to protect not only large birds that are naturally at greater risk from power lines but also millions of smaller birds,” said Anne Lacy of the, International Crane Foundation.

Bird species can see ultraviolet light (紫外线) at night. So James Dwyer, a wildlife biologist at a consulting firm, EDM, had the idea of using near-visible UV light to brighten power lines. EDM’s engineering team and the Dawson Public Power District developed such light systems and installed them on a tower supporting a power line at Rowe Sanctuary. Over a 38-night period, crane collisions decreased by 98 percent when the lights were on, the researchers reported in a study published online in May in Ornithological Applications.

Richard Loughery, director of environmental activities at the Edison Electric Institute, who was not involved in the project, says the new UV system adds an important tool for use in hotspots where endangered bird species nest and feed.

“I don’t want electricity companies to build lines wherever they want because there’s a new tool,” says biologist Robert Harms of the U. S. Fish &. Wildlife Service, who was not involved in the work. But for existing lines, he says, the UV system could be absolutely amazing.

【1】Why was the first method abandoned to protect birds?

A.It couldn’t protect birds migration.

B.It couldn’t prevent birds from standing on the plastic attachment.

C.The used material was hard for birds to spot at night.

D.The used material made more birds come to the power line.

【2】What does the underlined word “perished” in paragraph 2 mean?

A.Died. B.Appeared. C.Survived. D.Increased.

【3】What was the main reason for choosing UV light to protect birds?

A.It was more economical.

B.It was not harmful to birds.

C.It was invisible to people but not to birds at night.

D.It was a new technology tool for protecting birds.

【4】What did Robert Harms think of the UV system?

A.Unnecessary. B.Satisfactory. C.Critical. D.Skeptical.
