We had been told in the village that the road over the mountains was under construction and that it would be impossible to cross the frontier by car. We intended to disbelieve these 36 , since thirty miles of the road had been 37 effortlessly and we had come to within sight of the mountain pass. It was then that our confidence was 38 : the road began to get from bad to worse rapidly.
Henry stopped the car and we decided to climb as 39 as the pass on foot to see exactly how bad things were. We found that the track 40 for a couple of miles only, and then the road 41 again. We did not regard a little mud as a serious obstacle(障碍)and considered that the crossing would be quite 42 if we went on carefully. The first five hundred yards or so were sheltered by pieces of rock. We walked along 43 but surely, pleased with ourselves at having proved the villagers 44 . Just as we turned a corner, Henry caught sight of a large stone in his path and tried to 45 it. The car slid to one side and the rear wheels became 46 fast in mud. I got out to lighten the 47 , but the more Henry accelerated(加速), the deeper the wheels 48 into the soil. There was no choice but to dig down to the level of the wheels with our bare 49.

After a moment, the car 55 itself out of the rut(车辙), and came to a stop.
