I finished my last work of the week and could hardly wait to get home, take off my nursing shoes, and relax.
As I approached(走近)my 1 , I saw one of my 2 standing by the bus stop.I thought it would only take a couple of extra minutes to give her a ride home, and besides, it was 3 cold to be standing outside on the coldest 4 in January.I didn't know where she lived, but I was 5 I would be able to find my way back.
We 6 about our work as I drove and before we knew it, we arrived at 7 house.I started driving back. 8 looked familiar, but at first that didn't bother me.But soon I realized something wrong.I recognized nothing.But I told myself to stay 9 .
I was beyond neighborhoods, streets and 10 streetlights.I no longer knew where I was now.How could I be so stupid! I looked down at my 11 .It was now 2:30 a.m.My gas was slowly running out.I 12 the car and turned off the engine.In total defeat, I put my head down on the wheel, 13 .Then I raised my head and saw a shadow down the road in front of me.I turned my headlights on.A car! I drove a little 14 , got out of my car and knocked on the window of that car.An elderly man slowly rolled his window down.
I said that I didn't know how to get back into town.In silence, he started driving.I ran back to my car and drove behind him.Finally I recognized a(n) 15 street.As I turned to head home, the car disappeared.Then I pulled into my driveway(车道)when the warning light for my gas tank(汽油箱)turned on.
Though so many years have passed, I still thank the old man from my deepest heart.
