完形填空
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 1 , 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 2 and promised to pick Dad up at 4 pm.Because I had a few hours to spend, I decided to go to the 3 .However I became 4 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 5 and never let me drive again, so I drove back quickly to meet Dad and made an excuse(借口) 6 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 7 but with myself.I have failed 8 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 9 I have done wrong all these years.”
Dad began 10 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.
