解析：1.根据后面的I was filled with joy."可知作者现在仍然记得10年前刚学会开车时的那种激动(excited)。

2.依据前面的"... when I first learned to drive 10 years ago."可知这里描述的是10年前作者刚学会开车时的情景,所以这里指的是晚上开着车(Driving)。

3.从空前的I was filled with joy可知作者在异国他乡一个人开着车,那是一种独立自由的(independence ) 快乐。

4.根据下文的"I 5 (loved)my car!"可知,作者刚开车很开心,拍了一张拥抱着自己的车(car)的照片,然后发给了在中国的家人。

5.联系后面的"Sometimes she was my only 6 (partner) in lonely nights" 可推断作者喜欢(loved)他的车。

6.从后面的"... in lonely nights"可推断此处指作者在晚上独自一人开着车,陪伴(partner)他的只有他的车。

7.依据后面的"... that excitement wore off. " 可知, 之前作者刚学会开车时很兴奋,后来这种兴奋慢慢地减弱,所以此处是转折关系,用Yet。

8.结合前面的"... that excitement wore off." 以及后面的"... began to walk"可知作者讨厌(hated)开车。
