两小酒窝
【掷铁饼者】，这篇文章描述的那个病人和真正掷铁饼的运动员有相似之处。这篇文章里的病人是把炒蛋的盘子掷到墙上，这不仅仅是动作上的类似，在病人的内心里可能也渴望着运动员那般的生命力，或者说是尊严。每次他把盘子掷到墙上，摔碎，盘子破碎的声音使他可能都在感受着自己体内尚余的力量。他不仅失明，而且没有腿，成天只能坐在病床上，也许扔盘子是他唯一能做，也是他唯一能自己掌控和从中获得欣慰的事了。

6. For my own part, I find that appearances are all too often deceptive. For instance, you might be wrong if you judged by
appearances only people like Edward Hyde Burton. In appearance, he seemed a man all of a piece. He was a tiny little fellow with white hair and mild blue eyes, gentle and candid. Nevertheless, he turned out to be very cruel he insulted and fooled Lenny who was down and out and made him commit himself to an insane venture. What was still more surprising was that he was completely indifferent to Lenny’s death. Without doubt, Burton was a man with a heart of stone.
