(2016·和平区一模)

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 last 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

3

5．The author’s aim in writing this article is to argue that . 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

I don’t ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again.There was a time in my life when people asked constantly for stories about what it’s like to work in a field dominated by men.I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting.What I do find interesting is the origin of the universe，the shape of space-time and the nature of black holes.

At 19，when I began studying astrophysics，it did not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom.But while earning my PhD at MIT and then as a post-doctor doing space research，the issue started to bother me.My every achievement—jobs，research papers，awards—was viewed through the lens of gender(性别) politics.So were my failures.Sometimes，when I was pushed into an argument on left brain versus(相对于) right brain，or nature versus nurture(培育)，I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind.

Then one day a few years ago，out of my mouth came a sentence that would eventually become my reply to any and all provocations(刺激)：I don’t talk about that anymore.It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didn’t want to deal with gender issues.Why should curing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist？After all，I don’t study sociology or political theory.

I research and teach at Barnard，a women’s college in New York City.Recently，someone asked me how many of the 45 students in my class were women.You cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer,45.I know some of my students worry how they will manage their scientific research and a desire for children.And I don’t dismiss those concerns.Still，I don’t tell them “war” stories.Instead，I have given them this：the visual of their physics professor heavily pregnant doing physics experiments.And in turn they have given me the image of 45 women driven by a love of science.And that’s a sight worth talking about.

6．Why doesn’t the author want to talk about being a woman scientist again? A．She feels unhappy working in male-dominated fields.
