I was so careful. I was nervous too. I had taken driving lessons and passed my driving test. I had to pick up my father from work and drive him to the train station. But as I got close to my father’s workplace, I felt more and more confident.

There he was standing in front of his office building. After I stopped the car, he got in. But then, I was nervous again. I had to get the car into the street. With so many cars around, it wasn't easy. After about two minutes of waiting, the way was finally clear.

Soon we got onto the highway(公路). My father was giving me some advice on how to change lanes((车道). Suddenly, I saw a police car behind me. They were pulling me over(令我停靠路边).“Oh no! 'I said. A police officer came to my window. "The speed limit(极限 )on these roads is 100 kilometers an hour, he said. " Do you know how fast you were going?” “120?"I guessed. Of course it was a rediculous guess. There were so many cars passing me. How could that be?

No. You were going 65 kilometers an hour. You can't drive that slow. You'll cause an accident. When he found out this was my first day as a driver,he smiled and walked away. And that was my first day as a driver.

An old man went to live with his son, his daughter-in-law, and a four-year-old grandson. The old man's hands trembled(颤抖),his eyesight was very poor, and he couldn't walk steadily(平稳地).The family ate together nightly at the dinner table. But the elderly grandfather's shaky hands and failing sight made eating rather difficult. Rice often dropped on the floor.

The son and the daughter-in-law became angry with the old man,so they put a small table in the corner. There,the grandfather ate alone, while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner at the table. Since the grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was put in a wooden bowl.

The four-year-old son watched it all in silence. One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with a piece of wood on the floor. He asked the child sweetly, "What are you making?"
