清晨，阳光慢慢爬上窗台，以慵懒且温和方式提醒人们新的一天到来。
或许是因为心事，岑越崎一夜无梦，只记得很多单词手牵手围着他转圈，叽叽喳喳闹着和他玩猜猜我是谁的游戏。
未等闹铃响起，他变猛的起身，深吸一口气。
随即叼了块面包，脚步轻快地背起背包出门。
等把最后一口面包塞进嘴里时，他已经顺利落座图书馆。
今天的任务仍旧艰巨，他简单列了张计划，便投入备考之中。
今天的阅读材料比昨日的要简单些，却更抽象。岑越崎揉了揉鼻梁，强迫自己专注眼前的文字。
I want now to tell you, gentlemen, whether you care to hear it or not, why I could not even become an insect（昆虫）. I tell you solemnly,（庄严的） that I have many times tried to become an insect. But I was not equal even to that.
I swear, gentlemen, that to be too conscious（意志清醒的） is an illness - a real thorough-going illness.
For man's everyday needs, it would have been quite enough to have the ordinary human consciousness, that is, half or a quarter of the amount which falls to the lot of （降临到……头上）a cultivated man of our unhappy nineteenth century, espe- cially one who has the fatal ill-luck（倒霉） to inhabit（居住） Petersburg（圣彼得堡）, the most theoretical and intentional town on the whole terrestrial（陆生的） globe.

But yet I am firmly persuaded that a great deal of consciousness, every sort of consciousness, in fact, is a disease. I stick to that.
Let us leave that, too, for a minute.
Tell me this: why does it happen that at the very（恰好）, yes, at the very moments when I am most capable of feeling every refinement（文雅） of all that is "sublime（庄严的） and beautiful," as they used to say at one time, it would, as though of design, happen to me not only to feel but to do such ugly things, such that ...
