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 (地点).

    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.
