I started wondering why I ____ to run the light. I was not afraid of being caught, because there was ____ no policeman anywhere around and there certainly would have been no ____ in going through it.
Much later that ____, after I’d met with a group in Lewisburg and had climbed into bed near midnight, the question of why I’d stopped for that light ____ me. I think I stopped ____ it’s part of a contract(契约) we all have with each other. It’s not only the law, but it’s an agreement we have, and we trust each other to follow ____:We don’t go through red lights.
We do ____ we say we’ll do. We show up when we say we’ll show up.
