And 24 when I went to bed I 25 for hours before at last falling heavily asleep. And the dream I 26 then was far worse than lying awake worrying and despairing.

A large 29 stated that the English Examinations would take place in Room 999. But where could this room be? 30 any staircase I 31 a dark passage and walked 32 to the left where 33 was quite a very solid black door behind which I could hear people arguing with 34 in a quiet but angry voice. I wished I could ask them for some 35 ! I tried knocking on the door to draw their attention but immediately 36 died and 37 I hurt my hand in my efforts, nobody opened the door. I then tried hard only to find my way back to 38 . But as I was wondering helplessly, a deep accusing voice broke the deadly silence everywhere 39 the new empty building. “The examination is over. There’s no 40 in your remaining here. You are too late, too late. ”
