Later in bed，I __3__ the time I started college.My father had driven me，too.My mother had to stay home to keep the __4__from getting into the crops.I，the fourth in a line of brothers，was the first to __5__ college.

The truck was slow，and I was glad.I didn’t want to get to the city __6__.I shook hands with my father in the truck and he didn’t say a word.But I knew he was going to make a little __7__.He finally said，“I never went to college and __8__of your brothers did.I can’t say don’t do this or that，because everything is __9__and I don’t know what is going to come up，but I think things will __10__.When you get a job，be sure to be honest and work hard.” I knew that soon I would be __11__in the big town and I would be __12__the life home.

Then my father__13__the Bible (圣经) that he had read so often.I knew that he would miss it but I must__14__it.He just said，“This can help you __15__you will let it.”

When I finished school I took the Bible __16__to my father.But he said he wanted me to __17__it.
