I had just learned to 1 , so I agreed with pleasure. When we came to the town, something was wrong with
the car. Then I took the car to a nearby garage to have it 2 and promised to pick Dad up at 4 pm. Because
I had a few hours to spend, I decided to go to the 3 . However I became 4 interested in the film that I
forgot the time. When the last film finished, it was 6 o"clock.
I was afraid Dad would be 5 and never let me drive again, so I drove back quickly to meet Dad and
made an excuse (借口) 6 my being late. I"ll never forget the cry he gave me: "I"m disappointed that I feel
you have to tell a lie to me, Jack. I"m angry, not with 7 but with myself. I have failed 8 I"ve brought up a
son who can not even tell the truth to his own father. I"m going to walk home now and think seriously
about 9 I have done wrong all these years."
Dad began 10 along the road. I begged (乞求) all the way, telling him how I drove behind him for 40
miles, at a speed of 5 miles an hour. It was the most unforgettable lesson. I have never told a lie to him ever
since.

| A few years ago, Dave Stirling had the idea of selling CDs over the Internet. The business he started from his home in Ohio, the USA, now sells 500,000 CDs a year and has made him into a millionaire (百万富翁) at the age of 24. "I could see that this was the future of shopping," says Stirling. "Why should you pay $15 for a CD and spend the time and the money getting into the store and parking your car? You can have the same CD for half of the price by clicking (敲击) on your computer. And we can find any CD you want and bring it to your door in 24 hours!"
