For Senior 3 students, choosing which college to attend can be the most exciting and thrilling time in their entire school lives. This is also true for an American girl 26 Melanie.
Melanie’s dad, James Porter, who is the chief of police for a Chicago suburb, wants Melanie to 27 nearby Northwestern University, where she’s 28 been accepted. But Melanie, 17, really wants to go to Georgetown University in Washington, D.C, where she’s been wait-listed.
When she gets an unexpected 29 from Georgetown University, she decides to 30 a road trip with a few 31 female friends. Melanie believes it is her first step 32 adulthood. But 33 the fact that this trip is “girls only”, James isn’t 34 with the prospect(期望) of his little princess 35 the world without him. He wants to protect her, so he joins the girls and hopes he can convince Melanie to go to Northwestern. 36 Melanie’s father only has the best of 37 , his presence 38 an endless series of comic encounters（遭遇）.
After following their faulty device 39 into the backwoods (偏远地区), James and Melanie 40 Melanie’s little brother and his pet pig have been hiding in the spare compartment (隔间). What should be a simple tyre change 41 the expensive car rolling down a mountain, forcing them to hike to a nearby hotel…. All these disasters add spice(额外的趣味) to their trip while along the way a father and a daughter 42 get the chance to really 43 each other.

It was just getting dark. There was a touch of fog and I was on a lonely stretch of road. 36
I was going along cheerfully, thinking about the dinner I would eat when I got to Salistury.
I was going along 37 at about thirty-five miles an hour when suddenly I heard a scream, a 38 scream--- “ Help! ” I looked round, but the only 39 of life was a large, black, rather suspicious-looking car just 40 a bend in the road about a hundred yards away. That was where the cry had come from. I 41 speed and went after it. I think the driver saw what I was doing, for he did the same and began to draw 42 me.

“Let me go, you coward; you’re hurting me. Oh ! Oh ! ”
I felt my 44 boil. The fog was coming down 45 now, and the countryside was lonelier. I had no 46 that the murderous guy in the car noticed this. Again came a cry.
“Drop that knife, you fool. Oh ! ” Then a cry and a groan（呻吟）.
If I was to save her, it was now or 47 . Perhaps even now I was too late. But if I couldn’t save the girl, I would at least try to bring the murderer to 48 . The car was only a couple of yards away now. I drove the bike right across its 49 , and its brakes screamed as the driver tried to pull it over and 50 into the ditch（沟）at the side of the road. The door of the car was pushed open angrily and a dark, evil-looking fellow stepped out .
“You fool!” he shouted as he came towards me with his fist raised to hit me. But I was 51 than he. I put all I could into 52 that would have knocked out Joe Louis. It 53 him right on the point of the chin; his 54 slowly bent under him, and he dropped to the ground without a sound. I rushed to the car, 55 open the door and looked inside. There was no girl there. Suddenly from the back of the car came a voice.
“You have been listening to a radio play, Murder in Hollywood, with Mae Garbo and Clark Taylor. The news will follow immediately . ”

In front of me, there was a man sitting in the seat who didn't look too clean. 41 he was looking out of the window, the man suddenly 42 to me and pointed at something outside. "Hey, look." He had a big smile on his face. I turned to the 43 he was pointing to and there it was ---- the beautiful Catalina mountains burning with a beautiful 44 . The mountains were coated with bright pink light and shadows. He turned to other people on the bus and told them to look at the mountains. He 45
" Wow" and " It's so beautiful" again and again. Everybody on the bus 46 the views indeed.
The 47 view also helped me to 48 my long tiring day with a good feeling in my heart. But, more 49 , I was so inspired (鼓舞）to see that this man wanted to 50 the beautiful view with everybody on the bus, total strangers. His 51 act made me accidentally find something that I had lost which I didn't even know I had lost. He made me 52 that I had lost the feelings and the excitement I 53 have everyday. In my daily life, many things had 54 their color and movement. But he 55 me that things are still there ---- they never get lost.
