I Passed My Drive Test!

¡¡¡¡I¡¯d been 16 for six days and was already prepared to deal with failure£®

¡¡¡¡I remember that, when my mum ¡¡¡¡1¡¡¡¡ me that morning, her voice wasn¡¯t as screaming as it usually was£®She had been ¡¡¡¡2¡¡¡¡ for more than one hour getting everything ready, and I could feel she was ¡¡¡¡3¡¡¡¡ me at the same time£®

¡¡¡¡I stayed in bed for a few minutes£®I was ¡¡¡¡4¡¡¡¡ to leave its warmth and ¡¡¡¡5¡¡¡¡ to face the suffering that I¡¯d rather let myself forget for the past months£®Finally, I dragged myself ¡¡¡¡6¡¡¡¡£®

¡¡¡¡The first thing I thought of after getting up was to ¡¡¡¡7¡¡¡¡£®I went to the kitchen and prepared a breakfast that was fairly ¡¡¡¡8¡¡¡¡, but was still too big for my appetite(ʳÓû£¬Î¸¿Ú)that day£®I kept telling myself that I ¡¡¡¡9¡¡¡¡ eat£®Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and this wasn¡¯t a(n)¡¡¡¡10¡¡¡¡ day£®Besides maybe it would ¡¡¡¡11¡¡¡¡ me a little£®But I doubted it£®I left the kitchen because even the ¡¡¡¡12¡¡¡¡ made me feel sick£®

¡¡¡¡I finished getting ready and tried to settle down£®It didn¡¯t ¡¡¡¡13¡¡¡¡, so I decided that my mum and I should go£®We had ¡¡¡¡14¡¡¡¡ time, so I thought we could practise parking£®I ¡¡¡¡15¡¡¡¡, with the wheel hitting the pavement(ÈËÐеÀ)£®After that, the little bit of confidence I had was ¡¡¡¡16¡¡¡¡£®I tried two more times, but did not improve much£®Then we went towards the driving ¡¡¡¡17¡¡¡¡ site(µØµã)£®

¡¡¡¡I waited twenty minutes-just enough time to make myself believe that I was going to fail£®Then, finally, it was my ¡¡¡¡18¡¡¡¡£®I wasn¡¯t sure of myself at all£®I just wanted to get it over and make sure that I had to come back next Thursday£®

¡¡¡¡The first thing I had to do was parking, which I did quite well£®The ¡¡¡¡19¡¡¡¡ that came with it hit me like a wave£®The rest of the test went well and I passed it£®

¡¡¡¡The ¡¡¡¡20¡¡¡¡ of my mum made her face softer£®I knew her worry was gone and she was happy for me£®

I had my first job at the age of thirteen , when a friend of my mother who owned a bookshop hired me for six hours a week to help her in the shop . I was very  36   to earn my own pocket money and my parents   37 interfered (¸ÉÉæ) with how I spent it , even when I was spending it  38  .They believed that by earning money ,spending it ,and learning from the  39  ,I would become more mature (³ÉÊìµÄ)and  40  in how to handle work ,relationships with others ,and money.

Like many  41  parents ,my parents also let me and my brothers do things about which they  42  a great deal .When I was sixteen ,for example ,after I finished high school and before I entered university ,I wanted to spend the summer months traveling around  43   .My mother was against the idea of my traveling alone at such a young age, but my father felt that it would be a great  44  for me .In the end , my father won the  45  on the condition that I limited my traveling to France ,my mother¡¯s home, where I had many uncles, aunts and cousins  46  through the country who could  47  shelter and help if I needed them .

Three years later ,my younger brother decided to  48  a year off after his first year in university and travel through the United States and the Caribbean. Again my mother was very worried and not  49  to see my brother leave school, but my father encouraged him and my brother spent a (n) 50   year working his way on trains and ships to  51  his passage to different ports and cities, and discovering many fascinating places and people.

These kinds of experiences are probably  52  for children in many countries but in the US they are fairly common. Most parents start  53  their children at a young age to do small things by themselves .By the time they have finished high school, many American kids have already had  54  jobs and traveled around the US or other countries on their own , have selected the university they plan to attend , maybe even have decided on their future  55 ,and so on .

I came to study in the US last fall. My life had been quite  1 since I arrived at
Andover. Although I had quite a few extracurricular (¿ÎÍâµÄ) activities, I hadn¡¯t taken any official leadership position.
This  2 changed when I received an e-mail from Ms Griffith, my cluster dean (Ö÷
ÈÎ),    3 that a few female DC Rep was needed. DC Rep 4 Discipline Committee Representative.  5 boarding school students break serious rules, like using  6  , getting drunk or cheating in the studies. The punishments given to such students are   7 by a DC Rep, a house counselor, two student representatives, the cluster dean. I was really interested in becoming a DC Rep for my cluster, Pine Knoll, so were five other students. We had to hold   9 and Ms Griffith asked us to write  10  to be sent to everyone in Pine Knoll.
I thought hard about what to write. I didn¡¯t  want to make any   11 because they are difficult to keep. I didn¡¯t want to say I was experienced, because I was not. So I started my speech by explaining  12  I wanted to become a DC Rep. ¡° I want to serve Pine Knoll and also learn how American boarding schools carry out disciplines,¡± I wrote  13 .
I made three   14 that said ¡° Vote For Teresa¡± and put them on every exit (³ö¿Ú´¦) of my dorm so that people would  15 my name when they went to vote.
Although I tried hard, I didn¡¯t win the election, I was  16 . But my positive nature didn¡¯t allow me to   17 for very long. I actually  18 when my friends tried to comfort£¨°²Î¿£© me. ¡°Teresa, I¡¯m sorry that you didn¡¯t win the election,¡± they would say.
¡° No, don¡¯t be sorry for me. I am very happy to have taken part in the election.¡± I said.
It is true: the   19 is much more important than the result. I am surprised and happy to discover my hidden  20 .
