Twelve O’clock
十二点钟

Mother，I do want to leave off my lessons now. I have been at my book all the morning.
You say it is only twelve o’clock.Suppose it isn’t any later；can’t you ever think it is afternoon when it is only twelve o’clock？
I can easily imagine now that the sun has reached the edge of that rice-field，and the old fisher-woman is gathering herbs for her supper by the side of the pond.
I can just shut my eyes and think that the shadows are growing darker under the madar tree， and the water in the pond looks shiny black.
If twelve o’clock can come in the night，why can’t the night come when it is twelve o’clock？

#经典英语台词# I always feel this pressure of being a strong and independent icon of womanhood and not making it look like my whole life is revolving around some guy. But loving someone and being loved means so much to me. I always make fun of it and stuff. If there is any kind of magic in this world, it must be in the attempt of understanding someone sharing something.我一直觉得自己要做一个坚强而独立的女强人，不让自己的全部生活围着某个男人转。但是爱一个人和被人爱对我来说意味着很多。我常拿这种事情说笑。如果世上有什么奇迹，一定是尽力理解某个人，并与之共甘共苦。
