  The clock struck eleven at night.The whole house was quiet.Everyone was in bed except me.Under the strong light, I looked sadly, before me was a huge pile of that troublesome stuff(东西),they call“books”.

  I was going to have my examination the next day.“When can I go to bed?”I asked myself.I didn't answer.In fact I dared not(不敢).

  The clock struck twelve.“Oh, dear!”I cried.“Ten more books to read before I can go to bed!”We pupils are the most wretched creatures in the world.Dad does not agree with me on this.He did not have to work so hard when he was a boy.

  The clock struck one.I was quite desperate(绝望的)now.I forgot all I had learned.I was too tired to go on.I did the only thing I could.I prayed(祈祷),“Oh!Cod, please help me pass the exam tomorrow.I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.”My eyelids were so heavy that I could hardly open them.A few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.
