When 1 was 18 , one morning , my father told me to drive him into a town , about 18 miles away . I had just learned to drive , so 1 with pleasure . First we came to the town . Then I took the car to a nearby garage ( 汽车修理厂 ) to have it 2 and promised ( 答应 ) to pic k Dad up at 4 p . m . Because I had a few 3 to spend , I decided to go to the 4 . However , I became so interested in the films that I forgot the 5 . When the last film finished , it was 6 o ’ clock . I was afraid Dad would be 6 and never let me drive again , so I drove back 7 to meet Dad and made an excuse for my being late . I ’ ll never forget 8 he gave me . “I ’ m disappointed ( 失望的 ) that you feel you 9 lie to me , Jack . I ’ m angry , not with you but with myself . I have failed 10 I ’ ve brought up ( 抚养 ) a son who can not even 11 the truth to his own father . I ’ m going to 12 home now and think seriously about where I have gone wrong all these years .” Dad began walking along the road . I begged 13 , and drove 14 him for 18 miles , at a speed of 5 miles an hour . It was the most 15 lesson , and I have never lied to him ever since .
