My father is famous in our family for saying，\right.\．When my children were young and likely to cause accidents，I always thought about what I could do to avoid an \only\moment，whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter，or something that required a little more work such as taping padding （衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table． I don't only avoid those \．It's equally important to avoid \．We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say \you\or \forgive you.\When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday，I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn't be here. But then I thought about the fact that he's 84years old and I realized that I shouldn't give up an opportunity to see him．I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all．
I know there will still be occasions when I have to say \only\about something，but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality．And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right，or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection，I know that I'm doing the right thing．I'm buying myself peace of mind and that's the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being．
24.Which of the following is an example of the \？ ______
A. Start the car the moment everyone is seated． B. Leave the room for a minute with the iron working． C. Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better． D. Move an object out of the way before it trips（绊倒） someone．
