Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)
I grew up in a small town in Italy. One morning when I was 16, Dad told me I could drive him into a village, about 18 miles away, if I took the car to be serviced (保养)at a nearly garage. Thinking that I had just learned to drive, and hardly had the chance to use the car I agreed happily. I drove Dad into the village and made sure to pick him up at 4 pm. Then I drove to a nearby garage and dropped off the car. Because there were still a few hours to be left, I decided to watch movies at a theatre near the garage. But, when the last movie finished, I was two hours late. I was afraid of the result being late. I thought if dad knew what I had done,he could never let me drive again. So when I drove up the place where we had planned to meet and saw dad waiting patiently on the comer. I told him that I had come as quickly as I could, but the car had needed some special repairs.
“I'm terribly sorry that you have to lie to me, Janson.”
“What do you mean. Dad? I'm telling the truth.”
“I called the garage to ask if there were any problems, and they told me that you had not yet picked up the car. So I know there were no problems with the car. I’m angry not with you but with myself. You see. I’ve failed as a father, so I’m going to walk home now and think carefully about where I have gone wrong all these years.”
“But it’s dark, and it's 18 miles to walk home.”
I pleased(请求)all the way, telling him how sorry I was. But nothing helped. I had to drive behind him for 18 miles.
It was one of the most painful moments I had ever had. But it was the best lesson.
