原文
Anne sprang to her feet, knowing at once what that paper contained. The
pass list was out! Her head whirled and her heart beat until it hurt
her. She could not move a step. It seemed an hour to her before Diana
came rushing along the hall and burst into the room without even
knocking, so great was her excitement.
"Anne, you've passed," she cried, "passed the VERY FIRST--you and Gilbert both--you're ties--but your name is first. Oh, I'm so proud!"
