呼嘯山莊：純愛英文館（簡體書）

作者：（英國）艾米利·勃朗特（Emily Bronte）

《呼嘯山莊》全篇充滿強烈的反壓迫、爭幸福的斗爭精神，又始終籠罩著離奇、緊張的浪漫氣氛。它開始曾被人看做是年青女作家脫離現實的天真幻想，但結合其所描寫地區激烈的階級斗爭和英國的社會現象，它不久便被評論界高度肯定，并受到讀者的熱烈歡迎。

He seemed a sullen, patient child; hardened, perhaps,to ill-treatment: he would stand Hindley's blows withoutwinking or shedding a tear, and my pinches moved himordy to draw in a breath and open his eyes, as if he hadhurt himself by acadent and nobody was to blame.
This endurance made old Eamshaw furious, when hediscovered his son persecuting the poor, fatherless child,as he called him He took to Heathcliff strangely, believing all he said (for that matter, he said precious little, andgenerally the truth), and petting him up far above Cathy,who was too mischievous and wayward for a favourite.
So,from the very beginning, he bred bad feeling in thehouse; and at Mrs. Earnshaw's death, which happened inless than two years after, the young master had learnt toregard his father as an oppressor rather than a friend, andHeathcliff as a usurper of his father's affections and hisprivileges, and he grew bitter with brooding over these injuries.
I sympathized awhile; but when the children fell ill ofthe measles, and I had to tend them, and take on me thecares of a woman at once, I changed my ideas. Heathcliffwas dangerously sick; and while he lay at the worst hewould have me constantly by his pillow; I suppose he feltI did a good deal for him, and he hadn't the wit to guessthat I was compelled to do it.However, I will say this,he was the quietest child that ever nurse watched over.The difference between him and the others forced me tobe less partial.Cathy and her brother harassed me terribly; he was as uncomplaining as a lamb; though hardness, not gentleness, made him give little trouble.
He got through, and the doctor affirmed it was in agreat measure owing to me, and praised me for my care.
