She said that she and her son had had a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldnt speak to him again unless he called first. When I 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 offered an apology of his own.

We start to believe that our positions are more important than our happiness.可知。当我们心里还有愤怒的时候，我们在我们的想像中把小事转变成大事。我们开始相信我们的地位比我们的快乐更重要，故选C。23.D推理判断题。考查上下文逻辑推理及语境理解。根据第二段给出的例子，以及最后的总结As is usually the case，when someone takes the chanceandreaches out，everyone wins. 当某人利用机会，主动伸出手， 大家就都赢了，可知D先向别人道歉为正确答案。 24.B主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章讲的是主动示好，道歉会给人带来平和与快乐。因此B项正确。【名师点睛】 在阅读中我们经常会遇到许多生词。这时许多同学立即翻阅词典，查找词义。这样做不但费时费力，而且影响阅读速度、影响对语篇的整体把握。事实上，阅读材料中的每个词与它前后的词语或句子甚至段落都有联系。我们可以利用语境（各种已知信息）推测、判断某些生词的词义。因此，掌握一定的猜词技巧，对突破高考阅读理解、提高我们的英语语言能力都有非常重要的意义。猜测词义时，一般可利用以下四个方面的线索：一、利用上下文，通过对应结构或平行结构中的同义词、反义词进行判断。例1，2012年陕西阅读C篇， 2题The author of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. 猜测modest 一词的意思，根据上下文，可以看出：虽然空气污染这个因素对于健康人士来说危害相对小，并且对于其他因素来说空气污染的危害比较低，但是我们不能忽视它。例2.The game Americans call soccer is known around the world as football.分析运用与football的同义关系推断为足球。二、利用定语从句、同位语从句等进行判断。例3.In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today（2005年浙江卷）分析由同位语an endangered wild cat我们很快猜出生词ocelots的义域：一种濒临灭绝野猫。三、根据关键词，如but, however, not only but also 等进行判断。四、利用构词法进行判断。 如，转化词性，nurse护士n，-v. 护理； 合成 honey 蜂蜜+moon 月亮=honeymoon 蜜月； 派生， 指由一个词根加上前缀或者后缀构成一个新单词，如词根bus 前加前缀mini 微，小, 构成新词minibus , 小型公共汽车。由 (2013重庆育才中学高三月考)改编Chinese International SchoolApplication FormBefore an applicant can be invited to take part in an assessment, an application form should be returned to the Admissions Office, and the application fee of HK$1,000 cannot be returned.
