Question

When I was 18 years old, one morning, my father told me to drive him into a town, about 40 miles away. I had just learned to 36 ，so I agreed with pleasure. When we came to the town, something was wrong with the car. Then I took the car to a nearby garage to have it  37 and promised to pick Dad up at 4 pm. Because I had a few hours to spend, I decided to go to the  38 .However I became   39 interested in the film that I forgot the time. When the last film finished, it was 6 o’clock.

I was afraid Dad would be  40 and never let me drive again, so I drove back quickly to meet Dad and made an excuse(借口) 41 my being late. I’ll never forget the cry he gave me: “I’m disappointed that I feel you have to tell a lie to me, Jack. I’m angry, not with  42 but with myself. I have failed  43 I’ve brought up a son who can not even tell the truth to his own father. I’m going to walk home now and think seriously about  44 I have done wrong all these years.” 

Dad began  45 along the road. I begged(乞求)all the way, telling him how I drove behind him for 40 miles, at a speed of 5 miles an hour. It was the most unforgettable lesson. I have never told a lie to him ever since.

【解析】【主旨大意】文章讲述了我十八岁时答应父亲开车载他去城里，可是我却看电影忘记时间，并且撒谎骗父亲，父亲很生气，用惩罚自己的方式给我上了难忘的一课。

【解析】

1. 根据句意应是我刚学会开车，所以很高兴的同意了。

2. 根据上句知“车出了毛病”，所以应是我去附近的车厂去修理它，其他不符题意。

3. 根据下文讲到看电影，所以应是去了电影院。

4.根据复合句的结构可以看出考查固定句式结构so...that...。

7.根据句子结构可以看出考查的是not... but...“不是……而是……”， 根据句意应是“不是你为是我自己”，故选C。
