Question

One morning, when I was 16, my father told me I could drive him to a remote village named Mijas, about 18 miles away, 36 that I take the car in to be serviced at a nearby 37. Having just learned to drive, and hardly ever having the 38 to use the car, I readily accepted. I drove Dad into Mijas and 39 to pick him up at 4 P. M. ,then drove to a nearby garage and the car 40 in it. Because I had a few hours to 41, I decided to see a movie at a theater nearby. However, I was so 42 in the movie that I didn’t take any 43 of time. When the film was over, it was already 6 o’clock.

　 I knew Dad would be angry if he found out I had been watching movies, and not let me drive again. A good idea 44 me. I drove up to Mijas until I saw Dad waiting 45 on the corner, I explained to him that it was because the car had needed some major repairs that I was 46 . I will never forget the look he gave me.

“I’m so disappointed that you feel you have to lie to me. Jason. When you did not 47 , I called the garage to ask if there were any problems , and they told me that you hadn’t 48 the car.

I can see a feeling of sadness 49 him.

“I’m angry, not with you but with myself. Now I am 50 that I have failed as a father. I am going to walk home now and contemplate 51 I have done all these years.”

“But Dad, it is 18 miles to home. It’s dark. You can’t walk home.”

My 52 , my apologies and the rest of my utterances were of no use .Dad walked along the dusty roads silently in the dark, 53 thought. I pleaded all the way , telling him how sorry I was, but he simply 54 to pay any attention . Seeing my father in so much pain was the most painful experience that I have ever faced, 55 it was also the most successful lesson.
