Not too long after I had begun to drive as a teenager, someone pulled out of a parking lot onto the road in front of me. I reacted   36  and pulled up very close behind her--- just to show my irritation(怒气) and let her know she didn't "just   37  with that!" We've all been there with      38  incidents and reactions. My mother was with me, and told me to turn into the   39  parking lot. Safely there, she asked me why I   40  that lady had pulled out in front of me purposely.   41  rude, power play--- I guessed. Mom said that maybe she had just had some bad   42 , maybe she was late picking up her child and was distracted(分心). Think of all the   43  of why someone does something like that. It's usually not on purpose--- but what I do as a reaction is on purpose. She always said that I   44  to think about the other side before I   45 . Usually the reaction causes more of a   46 .
I am in my fifties now, and to this day, that has always   47  my head whenever those   48  happen. I've   49  my children the same thing. We often see and hear about "road rage." No matter to what   50   that "rage" is taken, my children will say something like, "They need Grandma's words!" As adults, I don't see them react as most of us do   51  their first reaction is always anger and irritation --- they   52  it and   53  what the other person's problem might be. Even if the other driver really might be   54  or doing a "power play," no more   55  reactions will occur because of their irritation.

If we can　　　　 our present difficulties, then everything should be all right?

A．come across　　　　　　　　　　 B．get over

C．come over　　　　　　　　　　　 D．get off
