It was eleven at night. The house was quiet. Everyone was in bed except (除了) me. I looked sad because I had to read a lot of books.

　 I was going to have my test the next day. “When can I go to bed?” I asked myself, but I didn’t answer myself. It was nearly twelve. “Oh, dear! There are still ten books I haven’t read!” I think students are the saddest ones in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He did not have to work so hard when he was a boy.

　 I was quite despaired (绝望的). I forgot all I had learned. I was too tired. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “My God, please let me pass (通过) the coming test. I will work hard next time. Amen.” My eyes were so heavy that I couldn’t open them. A few minutes later, I fell asleep.
