Not sure what you are referring to. On some transmissions it is the highest gear on others (8 and 9 speeds) it is a low gear.

my automatic transmission is stuck in neutral. how do you get it into gear
It is called the passing gear.
In an automatic transmission, the "2" gear selection limits the vehicle to the second gear and prevents it from shifting to higher gears. This mode is useful for maintaining power and control in situations such as driving on steep inclines or when additional engine braking is needed, such as in slippery conditions. When "2" is selected, the transmission will start in first gear and shift to second gear but will not shift to third or higher until the driver manually selects a different mode. This allows for better control while still benefiting from the automatic transmission's operation.
That would be the second gear of your automatic transmission.
There are several things that can cause your automatic transmission not to go into first gear. The most common cause is low transmission fluid.
Are you sure that it's third it's not shifting into, and not fourth? The transmission is designed to not permit shifts into fourth (overdrive) until the engine and transmission have warmed up a bit.
It wants to go to third and fourth gear as the road speed increases so as to allow the engine to run at a more optimum speed.
The real problem is manually shifting from gear to gear with an automatic transmission. If you are referring to the automatic upshift, there may be a problem with the EGR system or vacuum system.
If your transmission is manual, you will have to change gear. If it is automatic, you won't.
When climbing a steep incline. The automatic transmission will always try to engage a high gear.

it`s amanumatic type of gear which can be operated manualy or automatic
