第二节: 完形填空 (满分20分)

Learning experiences happen to us throughout our lives. Not long ago, I had one that I would like to 　41　 　with you.

I was going to Marblehead with my sailboat team. The team was racing down the high way at 85 mph 　42　 　we realized we were 　43　 　. Luckily, we saw a rest area ahead. I had a brand new $ 20 bill. I was so 　44　 　because I had never had that kind of cash before. But spending it on 　45　 　seemed like throwing it away. We all rushed into the pizza line.

　 46　 　, I got a pizza and a drink, and walked to my table. About halfway through the meal, I 　47　 　I had not actually handed my money to the cashier. I had just　 48　 　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 　49　 　over it. I just couldn’t go back to the cashier and 　50　 　for my stolen pizza. I was so upset that I

　 51　 　to forgive myself the pleasure of an ice cream for 　52　 　that someone would say, “Hey, Jeff, why don’t you use the change 　53　 　the pizza instead of that nice, new $ 20 bill?” I was not so 　　54　 　of my cash now.

For the next two years, whenever I was 　55　 　of the “pizza incident,” I would say to myself, “Don’t think about it.”

I have learned two things from this 　56　 　. Maybe I was a fool for 　57　 　in to my conscience, and being too stupid to appreciate a 　58　 　pizza. But the real lesson is that even if you get away from what you have done, your conscience will 　59　 　up with you.

This reflects the saying, “A coward (懦夫) dies a thousand times, a hero dies once.” I was a coward and have felt terrible about that accident at least a thousand times. If I had been a 　60　 　and gone back to pay for the pizza, I would have felt a little uncomfortable about it only once, or maybe twice.
