A(n) boy would have avoided looking at the title as soon as he saw the _ _ _. I did not. The subject of the English Writing Prize was kept a until the start of the exam so I could not reading it.

That was thirty-eight years when I was fifteen. I have never told anyone about it before, have I tried to explain to myself why not.
The obvious explanation is that I could not admit I had seen the title __ admitting that I had been looking at the things on his desk. there must have been more behind it. Whatever it was, it has become a good example of how a little mistake can trap (使陷入) you in a more serious moral corner (道德困境).
