Last night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg,a ____ of about eighty miles. It was late and I was in a hurry. However,if anyone asked me how fast I was ____,I'd say I was not overspeeding. Several times I got ____ behind a slowmoving truck on a narrow road,and I was holding my fists tightly with ____.
At one point along an open highway,I ____ a crossroad with a traffic light. I was alone on the road by now,but as I ____ the light,it turned red and I braked to a stop. I looked left,right and behind me.Nothing. No cars,no suggestion of headlights,but there I sat,waiting for the light to ____,the only human being for at least a mile in any ____.
I started ____ why I refused to run the light. I was not afraid of being ____,because there was obviously no policeman around,and there certainly would have been no ____ in going through it.
Much later that night,after I ____ a group of my friends in Lewisburg and climbed into bed near midnight,the question of why I'd stopped for that light ____ me. I think I stopped because it's part of a contract(合同) we all have with each other. It's not only the ____,but it's an arrangement we have,and we trust each other to ____ it:we don't go through red lights. Like most of us,I'm more likely to be ____ from doing something bad by the social convention that ____ it than by any law against it.
It's amazing that we ever ____ each other to do the right thing,isn't it?And we do,too. Trust is our ____ preference.
