Learning experiences happen to us throughout our lives. Not long ago, I had one that I would like to  21  .

I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team. The team was racing down the highway at 85 mph   22   we realized we were  23  . Luckily, we saw a rest area ahead. I had a brand new $20 bill. I was so   24   because I had never had that kind of cash before. But spending it on   25   seemed like throwing it away. We all rushed into the pizza line.   26   I got a pizza and a drink, and walked to my table. About halfway through the meal, I  27   I had not actually handed any money to the cashier. I had just   28  out, and nobody had noticed. I felt terrible.

My conscience(良心)opened its mouth and swallowed me in one big bite. I couldn’t   29   over it. I just couldn’t go back to the cashier and   30   for my stolen pizza. I was so upset that I   31   to give myself the pleasure of an ice cream in   32   that someone would say, “Hey, Jeff, why don’t you use the change   33  the pizza instead of that nice, new $20 bill?” I was not so  34  of my cash now.

For the next two years, whenever I was 　35　 of the “pizza incident”, I would say to myself, “Don’t think about it...”

I have learned two things from this   36  . Maybe I was a fool for   37  in to my conscience, and being too stupid to appreciate a   38   pizza. But the real lesson is that even if you get away from what you have done, your conscience will   39  up with you.

This reflects the saying, “A coward (懦夫) dies a thousand deaths; a hero dies one.” I was a coward and have felt terrible about that incident at least a thousand times. If I had been a “  40   ” and gone back to pay for the pizza, I would have felt a little uncomfortable about it only once, or maybe twice.
