中文翻译
明钦小姐从未显得如此沉静而严厉，就像萨拉几小时后应她发出的消息来到她面前时那样。
甚至到那时，在萨拉看来，生日聚会要么是一场梦，要么是发生在多年前、发生在另一个小女孩生命中的事情。
所有庆祝活动的痕迹都被清扫一空；冬青装饰已经从教室的墙壁上移除，长凳和课桌也被放回了原位。
明钦小姐的起居室看起来和往常一样——宴会的所有痕迹都消失了，明钦小姐也换回了她平常的衣服。
学生们被要求把他们的派对礼服收起来；这件事完成后，他们回到了教室，三五成群地挤在一起，兴奋地窃窃私语和交谈。
"告诉萨拉来我的房间，" 明钦小姐对她的妹妹说。
并且清楚地向她解释，我不希望有任何哭泣或不愉快的场面。
“姐姐，”阿米莉亚小姐回答道，“她是我见过的最奇怪的孩子。”
她实际上根本没有大惊小怪。
你记得当克鲁船长回印度时，她一点也没有哭。
