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(食欲,胃口) 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(人行道). 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 (地點(diǎn)).

    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.

The story I am going to tell you happened about three years ago when I started to learn how to drive. At first, I was very frightened, and I thought I could never learn how to drive a car. Driving a car frightened me because in my home country women never drive, but in the United States every woman has to know how to drive. My husband paid an instructor to teach me how to drive. After that, my husband practiced with me for a long time. My husband always told me that I had to learn. It was important to me and my family.

However, I couldn’t get my license right away. I failed my driving test two times. After practicing for a long time, I decided to go for my third driving test. I had failed my first test because I was very nervous. Everybody encouraged me to continue practicing. Three weeks later, I decided to try it again, but I failed again. After that, I was very embarrassed(困窘的), and I said I couldn’t get it, so I stopped practicing for a while.

Not knowing how to drive was bad because I couldn’t do anything. I had two kids, my husband works, and I have to take care of everything. Driving was so necessary that I decided to try it again. And finally, that time, I passed the test. Now I have my license. I know how to drive, and it has changed my life in some important ways. Now I’m driving to the college, learning English and hoping I will get a good job in the future.

2. The underlined word “instructor” in the first paragraph probably means __________.

C.someone who teaches in an American college

D.the information telling you how to drive a car

3. How many persons in the author’s family are mentioned except the author herself?
