    I was 16 when one morning my father told me I could drive him into a village, about 18 miles away, on the condition that I take the car in to be serviced（保养）at a nearby garage（汽车修理厂）. Having just learned to drive and hardly ever having the 1  to use the car, I happily accepted. I drove Dad into the village and promised to  2 at 4 pm, and then drove to a nearby garage. Because I had a few free hours, I 3 to catch a couple of movies at a theater near the garage. When the last movie had finished, it was six o'clock. I was 4  hours late!

    I knew Dad would be 5 if he found out I'd been watching movies. I decided to tell him that the car had needed some repairs and that 6 had taken longer than expected, I drove up to the place where we had planned to meet and saw Dad waiting patiently. I said  7 and told him that I'd come as quickly as I could, but the car had needed some major repairs.

    "I'm disappointed that you feel you have to  8 to me, Jason."

    "What do you mean? I'm telling the truth."

    Dad looked at me again. "When you did not show up, I called the 9 .

    They told me that you had not yet picked up the car. So you see, I know there were no problems with the car." I had to confess (交代) to my trip to the movie theatre. Dad listened as a 10 passed through him.

    "I'm angry, not with you but with myself. I have failed 11 I have brought up a son who cannot even tell the truth to his own father. I'm going to walk home now and consider 12 I have gone wrong all these years."

    "But Dad, it's 18 miles to home. It's dark. You can't walk home." My words were 13 . Dad began walking along the dusty roads, silently, thoughtfully and 14. For 18 miles I drove behind him.

This was the saddest experience that I have ever had. It was also the most successful lesson. I 15 lied to my father after that.
