【解析】

试题分析：本文主要讲述了作者第一次独自开车带家人去出行的经历。

【1】that 考查强调句。本句考查了强调句型：it was not until…that…。故填that，句意为：但是，直到四天前我的父亲才允许我在高速公路上开车。

【2】a 考查冠词。本句考查了不定冠词的用法，此处代指上文出现的Orewa，是它的同位语，指一个海边小镇，故填a。

【3】before 考查连词。根据上文可知，这是作者第一次在高速上开车，再根据上文的I had enough to drink可知，作者有点紧张，故在离开前去了三次厕所。填before。

【4】for 考查介词。本句考查固定短语：be prepared for，意为：准备好做…。故填for，句意为：我想我已经完全准备好这次旅程。

【5】tightly 考查副词。本句考查修饰动词用副词，本句修饰动词hold，故需要副词，填tightly。句意为：放松！不要这么紧紧地抓住方向盘。

【6】mine/me 考查代词。根据句意，这里的座位既可以指我旁边，也可以指我的座位旁边，故既可以填mine也可以填me。句意为：从我旁边的座位传来另一个嗓音。

【7】annoying 考查形容词。本句考查annoy的形容词形式，它的形容词有两种形式，annoying和annoyed。前者意为讨厌的、恼人的；后者意为感到讨厌的。根据句意填annoying，意为：多么恼人啊！

【8】stepped 考查时态。根据上文可知，这件事情发生在四天前，故用一般过去时，所以填stepped，句意为：为了满足他们，我狠踩油门。

【9】telling 考查动名词。考查stop的用法，stop doing sth.意为：停止做某事。故填telling，句意为：我的家人似乎满足了，不再告诉我该做什么。

【10】easier 考查比较级。根据下文的than before可知此处需要比较级，故填easier。句意为：在回家的路上，旅程似乎比之前要轻松得多，因为他们每个人都睡着了。
