I grew up in a small town and the main entertainment was Friday night high school football. It was just a sleepy little town where parents wanted to raise their children away from
36_ and danger of a big city, and where teenagers like me
_37_ leaving to find something bigger and better.
All that
38 _ one summer night. My friend Lisa, Kim and Tyler held a party for my eighteenth birthday at Lisa’s house. As they kept
_39_ alcohol to me, I was pretty drunk. I asked Tyler to take me home. With some
40 _ , we made it out to his car and drove home. News came next morning. Kim, my friend
41__ we were five years old, was killed in a car accident. That night after Tyler and I left, Kim, who was
_42__ more drunk than me, got into her car and
43_ towards the highway to go home, She was driving on the wrong side of the road and never saw the truck coming. The driver didn’t see her
_44_ to avoid the car. They hit head on. Kim died immediately, and the driver was thrown
45_ the truck windshield(挡风玻璃)and died a week later.
Whenever I
46_ back on that day, I can’t help thinking that it was my
47 to drink so much that night, otherwise things would be different. I know Kim
48_ the choice to drink and drive that night , but a part of me will always feel
49 _for what happened.
I may not change the
50_ with my story, but I do hope that I can make people
51 the responsibility that they have to themselves and others by
52 it. Don’t ever think that your choices are yours
__53 .Every choice is like a stone dropped into
54 water-each ripple(波纹)represents someone who your choice
55 . That’s quite an influence, isn’t it?
