My house is on a hill. There was only a small parking place. As a new driver, I was so scared when I realized I would have to reverse（倒车）out of the driveway. I knew that if I parked backwards（朝后）, it would be easier to get out later. .

    For three months, I didn't even think of trying. . But one day, I suddenly thought to myself, "How am I ever going to know whether I can do it if I don't even try?"

    So I started my car, went down that hill, turned around and reversed. I made it. I got into the parking place. .

    As weeks went on, I continued trying. The more I practiced, the better I did. But I had never practiced parking in the dark before. Then I decided to push myself. .

    When I slowly drove to the parking place, I couldn't see anything. My heart was beating rapidly. A moment later I guessed I was getting somewhere, I let the car go. Oh, my god! The car hit a tree. . But I tried it after all.
