They believed that nothing would ever change.But inFrance things were bad, and getting worse. The people were poor,hungryand unhappy. The King made paper money and spent it,

4、and thepeople hadnothing to eat. Behind closed doors in the homes of the people,voices spokein whispers against the King and his noblemen;theywere onlywhispers, but they were the angry whispers of desperate people.Late one November night, in that same year 1775, a coachgoing fromLondon to Dover, sto

No one inthe coachunderstood what they meant.The next day Mr Lorry was sitting in his hotel in Doverwhen a younglady arrived. She was pretty, with golden hair and blue eyes, andMrLorry remembered a small child, almost a baby. H

Mr Lorry asked the young lady to sit down.Miss Manette, he said.I have a strange story to tellyou, aboutone of the customers of Tellsons Bank. Thats where I work.Yes, but I dont quite understand, Mr

11、Yes, thats true, Miss Manette. Many years ago I broughtyou fromFrance to England, and Tellsons Bank has taken care of you sincethen.You were told that your father had died. But think, Miss Manette.Perhapsyour father wasnt dead. Perhaps he was in prison. Not because hehaddone something wrong But just

It would be toodangerous.He has been taken to the house of an old servant in Paris, and wearegoing there to bring him back to li

14、fe.1 去巴黎的路1775 年那是最好的年代，也是最糟的年代。那是光明的時(shí)節(jié)，也是黑暗的時(shí)節(jié)。那是希望的春季，也是悲傷的冬日。那是公元 1775 年。那時(shí)的法國(guó)有國(guó)王和王后，英國(guó)也有國(guó)王和王后，他們相信什么事情都不會(huì)改變。但是法國(guó)的境況很糟糕，而且是每況愈下。人民在貧艇、饑餓和不幸中生活。國(guó)王發(fā)行紙幣進(jìn)行 揮霍，而百姓卻要忍饑挨餓。在門(mén)戶緊閉的家中，人們悄聲地談?wù)撝磳?duì)國(guó)王和他的貴族們的話題。它們只是低聲的密談，但卻是絕望中的人們憤怒的聲音。就在那 1775 年 11 月的一個(gè)深夜，一輛從倫敦趕往多佛的馬車(chē)停在了一條綿延的山丘的頂部。馬匹都已經(jīng)很累了，但在它們休息時(shí)，趕車(chē)人聽(tīng)到后面有另一匹馬

15、正急速地朝他們趕來(lái)。騎馬人把馬停在馬車(chē)的旁邊并喊道:“我要找倫敦臺(tái)爾森銀行來(lái)的賈維斯?勞里先生?！薄拔揖褪琴Z維斯?勞里先生，”車(chē)內(nèi)的一位乘客從車(chē)窗探出頭來(lái)說(shuō)道?！坝惺裁词聠?”“是我杰里，杰里?克拉徹，從臺(tái)爾森銀行來(lái)的，先生，”馬上的人喊道。“什么事，杰里?”勞里先生問(wèn)道?！吧觽€(gè)信兒給您，勞里先生，您得在多佛等候一位年輕女士?！薄昂冒桑芾?，”勞里先生說(shuō)?！案嬖V他們，就說(shuō)我的答復(fù)是活過(guò)來(lái)”?？谛艃菏瞧嫣氐模饛?fù)就更奇特了。馬車(chē)上的人都不明白他們?cè)谡f(shuō)什么。第二天，勞里先生在多佛的旅館里坐著時(shí)，來(lái)了一位年輕的女士。她很美，有一頭金黃的頭發(fā)和藍(lán)色的眼睛，這讓勞里先生想起了一個(gè)小孩兒，幾乎是個(gè)嬰兒。

16、那是在很多年前，在從法國(guó)加萊去英國(guó)多佛的路上，他曾把她抱在懷里。勞里先生讓這位年輕女士坐下來(lái)?！榜R內(nèi)特小姐，”他說(shuō)道?！拔矣袀€(gè)離奇的故事要告訴你，是關(guān)于臺(tái)爾森銀行的一位顧客 的。臺(tái)爾森銀行是我工作的地方。”“好吧，但是我不太明白，勞里先生，”年輕的女士說(shuō)?！拔覐呐_(tái)爾森銀行接到口信，要我到這兒來(lái)見(jiàn)您。我知道一些有關(guān)我可憐的父親的錢(qián)的事。他很早就已死了還在我出生之前。您要告訴我的是什么故事呢?”“大約 20 年前，馬內(nèi)特小姐，有位法國(guó)醫(yī)生娶了一位英國(guó)女士。他們有了一個(gè)女兒，但是還在他們的女兒出生之前，這位父親卻失蹤了。沒(méi)有人知道他出了什么事。不久，他那位傷心的妻子也死了，他們的女兒被帶回了英國(guó)?！?/p>

A wine2 A wine,shop in ParisIn the part of Paris called Saint Antoine everyone waspoor. Thestreets were narrow and dirty, the food,shopswere almost empty. Thefaces of the children looked old already, because theywere s

19、o hungry. Inthe wine,shop ofMonsieur Defarge there were not many customers andDefarge was outside,talking to a man in the street. His wife, MadameDefarge, sat inside the shop,knitting and watching. Defarge came in andhis wife looked at him, then turnedher eyes to look at two new customers,a man of a

20、bout sixty and a young lady.Defarge went over to speak to them,suddenly kissed the young ladys hand, andled them out of the back ofthe shop. They followed him upstairs, many stairs,until they reached thetop. Defarge took a key out of his pocket.Why is the door locked? asked Mr Lorry in surprise.He i

21、sa freeman now.Because he has lived too long behind a locked door, repliedDefarge angrily.He is afraid if the door is not lockedThatis one ofthe things they have done to him. Im afraid, too, whispered Miss Manette. Her blue eyeslookedworriedly at Mr Lorry.I am afraid of himofmy father.Defarge made a

22、 lot of noise as he opened the door. Mr Lorryand Luciewent into the room behind him. A thin, white,hairedman was sitting on awooden seat. He was very busy, making shoes.Good day, said Defarge.You are still working hard, Isee.After a while they heard a whisper.Yes, I am stillworking.Come, said Defarg

23、e.You have a visitor. Tell him yourname.My name? came the whisper.One Hundred and Five, NorthTower.Mr Lorry moved closer to the old man.Dr Manette, dont yourememberme, Jarvis Lorry? he asked gently.The old prisoner looked up at Mr Lorry, but there was nosurprise, nounderstanding in his tired face, a

24、nd he went back to work makingshoes.Slowly Lucie came near to the old man. After a while henoticed her.Who are you? he asked.Lucie put her arms around the old man and held him, tearsofhappiness and sadness running down her face. From a little bag the oldmantook some golden hair. He looked at it, and

25、 then he looked at Lucieshair.Itis the same. How can it be? He stared into Lucies face.No, no,you aretooyoung, too young.Through her tears Lucie tried to explain that she was thedaughter hehad never seen. The old man still did not understand, but heseemed to like the sound of Lucies voice and the to

26、uch of her warm young handonhis.Then Lucie said to Mr Lorry, I think we should leave Parisat once.Can you arrange it?Yes, of course, said Mr Lorry.But do you think he isable totravel?He will be better far away from this city where he haslost so muchof his life, said Lucie.You are right, said Defarge

27、.And there are many otherreasons whyDr Manette should leave France now.While Mr Lorry and Defarge went to arrange for a coach totake themout of Paris, Lucie sat with her father. Exhausted by the meeting,hefell asleep on the floor, and his daughter watched him quietlyandpatiently until it was time to

28、 go.When Mr Lorry returned, he and Defarge brought food andclothes forDr Manette. The Doctor did everything they told him to do;hehad beenused to obeying orders for so many years.As he came down the stairs,Mr Lorry heard him say again and again,One Hundred and Five, North Tower.When they went to the

29、 coach, only one person saw themgo:MadameDefarge. She stood inthe doorway, and knitted and watched, seeing everythingand seeingnothing.2 巴黎的一家酒店 在巴黎的一個(gè)名叫圣安東尼的地方，所有的人都很窮。街道狹窄骯臟，食品店幾乎都是空的。孩子們的臉已顯出老態(tài)，因?yàn)樗麄兲囸I了。在得法熱先生的酒店里沒(méi)有多少顧客，得法熱則在門(mén)外與街上的一個(gè)男人交談著。他的妻子得法熱夫人正坐在店里一邊織毛衣一邊觀察著周?chē)?。得法熱走進(jìn)店來(lái)，他的妻子看著他，然后就把眼光轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)去盯著兩位新來(lái)

It smelt of dust and old papers,

34、and the people whoworkedthere all seemed old and dusty, too. Outside the building satJerry Cruncher,who carried messages for people in the bank.One morning in March 1780, Jerry had to go to the OldBailey tocollect an important message from Mr Lorry. Trials at the Old Baileywereusually for very dange

35、rous criminals, and the prisoner that morning wasayoung man of about twentyfive, welldressed and quite calm.Whats he done? Jerry asked the doorman quietly. Hes a spyA Frenchspythe doorman told him. He travelsfromEngland to France and tells the French King secret information aboutourEnglish army.What

36、ll happen if hes guilty? asked Jerry.oh, hell have to die, no question of that, replied thedoormanenthusiastically.Theyll hang him.Whats his name?Darnay, Charles Darnay. Not an English name, is it?While Jerry waited, he looked around at the crowd insidethe OldBailey and noticed a young lady of about

37、 twenty years, and her father,agentleman with very white hair. The young lady seemed very sad whenshelooked at the prisoner, and held herself close to her father.Then the trial began, and the first person who spokeagainst CharlesDarnay was called John Barsad.He was an honest man, he said, and proud

38、to be anEnglishman. Yes, hewas, or had been, a friend of the prisoners. And in theprisonerspockets he had seen important plans and lists about the Englisharmies.No, of course he had not put the lists there himself. And no, he wasnota spy himself, he was not someone paid to make traps for innocent pe

39、ople.Next the young lady spoke. She said that she had met theprisoner onthe boat which had carried her and her father from France toEngland.Hewas very good and kind to my father and to me, she said.Was he travelling alone on the ship?No, he was with two French gentlemen. Now, Miss Manette, did you s

40、ee him show them any papers,or anythingthat looked like a list?No, I didnt see anything like that.Questions, questions, questionsThetrial went on, and finally, asmall, red,hairedman spoke.He told the judge that he had seen Mr Darnay at a hotel in atownwhere there were many soldiers and ships. Then o

41、ne of the lawyers, amancalled Sydney Carton, wrote some words on a piece of paper, and gaveit to MrStryver, the lawyer who was speaking for Mr Darnay.Are you quite sure that the prisoner is the man you saw?Mr Stryverasked the red,hairedman.Quite sure, said the man.Have you ever seen anyone like the

42、prisoner? asked MrStryver.Id always be able to recognize him. The red,hairedman was veryconfident.Then I must ask you to look at the gentleman over there, said MrStryver, pointing to Sydney Carton.Dont you think that he is verylikethe prisoner?Everyone in the court could see that Sydney Carton andCh

43、arles Darnaywere indeed very similar.Well then, said Mr Stryver, it is so easy to find a manlike theprisoner that we can even find one in this room. So how can you besosure that it was the prisoner you saw in that hotel? And the red,hairedman said not another word.The lawyers talked and argued, and

44、when at last the trialcame to anend, Jerry Cruncher had fallen asleep.But Mr Lorry woke him up and gave him a piece of paper.NOT GUILTYwere the words written on it, and Jerry hurried back to TellsonsBankwith the message.Sydney Carton seemed to be a man who did not care aboutanyone oranything. He was

45、 Mr Stryvers assistant. In fact, he did most of therealwork for Mr Stryver. Stryver was good at speaking at a trial, but hewasnot good at discovering important facts and details, especially whenthesedetails were hidden in a lot of papers. Every night Carton studiedthe manypapers that lawyers have to

46、 read, and he wrote down thequestions whichStryver should ask at the next days trial. And every dayStryver asked thesequestions, and people thought how clever he was.Outside the Old Bailey Mr Darnay, now a free man, met hisfriends: DrManette and hisdaughterLucie, Mr Jarvis Lorry, Mr Stryver, and Mr

47、Carton.Dr Manette no longer looked like the man in the room aboveDefargeswine,shop five yearsago. Hishair was white, but his eyes were bright and he stoodstraight and strong.Sometimes his face became dark and sad when heremembered the years in theBastille prison;at these times onlyhisdaughter Lucie,

48、 whom he loved so much, could help him. As they stood there talking, a strange expression came overDrManettes face. He was staring at Charles Darnay, but he did not seemtosee him. For a few moments there was dislike, even fear in hiseyes.Myfather, said Lucie softly, putting her hand on his arm, shal

49、lwe go homenow?Yes, he answered slowly.Soon they drove off in a coach, and then Mr Stryver and MrLorrywalked away, leaving Mr Darnay and Mr Carton alone.It must be strange for you, said Carton, to be a freeman again,and to be standing here, talking to a man who looks just like you.Let usgo out and e

50、at together.After they had eaten, Carton said softly, How sad andworried MissManette was for you today Shesa very beautiful young woman, dont youthink?Darnay did not reply to what Carton had said, but hethanked him forhis help at the trial.I dont want your thanks, replied Carton.I have donenothing.

51、AndI dont think I like you.Well, said Darnay, you have no reason to like me. But Ihope thatyou will allow me to pay the bill for both of us.Of course. And as you are paying for me, Ill have anotherbottle ofwine.After Darnay had left, Carton drank some more wine andlooked athimself in the mirror. He

52、was angry because Darnay looked so muchlike him, but was so different. Carton knew that he was a clever lawyer,andthat he was a good and honest man, but he had never been successfulforhimself. He drank too much, and his life was unhappy and friendless.Hiscleverness and his hard work in the law only

53、made others, like MrStryver,successful and rich. He remembered Lucie Manettes worried facewhen shewatched Darnay in court.If I changed places with Darnay, he whispered tohimself, wouldthose blue eyes of Miss Manette look at me, in the same way?No, no, itstoo late now.He drank another bottle of wine

54、and fell asleep.In a quiet street not far away was the house where DrManette andLucie lived. They had one servant, Miss Pross, who had taken careofLucie since she was a child. Miss Pross had red hair and a quick,sharpvoice, and seemed at first sight a very alarming person. Buteverybody knewthat she

55、was in fact a warm,hearted andunselfish friend,who would do anything to guard her darling Lucie fromtrouble or danger.Dr Manette was now well enough to work as a doctor, and he,Lucie,and Miss Pross led a quiet, comfortable life. Mr Lorry, who had becomeaclose family friend, came regularly to the hou

56、se, and in the monthsafterthe trial, Mr Darnay and Mr Carton were also frequent visitors.This did notplease Miss Pross at all, who always looked very cross whenthey came.Nobody is good enough for my darling Lucie, she told MrLorry oneday, and I dont like all these hundreds of visitors. Mr Lorry had

57、a very high opinion of Miss Pross, but hewasnt braveenough to argue that two visitors were nothundreds. Nobodyargued withMiss Pross if they could avoid it.3 倫敦的一次審判1780 年倫敦城里的臺(tái)爾森銀行是一座古老、灰暗而且丑陋的建筑。這里充斥著灰塵和廢紙的氣味，就連在里面工作的人似乎也都古舊而灰頭灰腦的。負(fù)責(zé)為銀行里的人傳書(shū)送信的杰里?克拉徹坐在銀行的外面。1780 年 3 月的一天早晨，杰里要去舊巴勒從勞里先生那兒獲取一條重要信息。在舊
