　　John Weston

　　When John Weston awoke that morning, he remembered that his mother was going

　　into hospital. He hadnt worked out quite what was wrong with her. He knew, though, that she hadnt been well for some time now, and it had become almost familiar to him to see her eyes narrowed in a sudden attack of pain, and her hand pressing against her heart. Their own doctor, who she had finally gone to for advice, had sent her to a specialist who knew all about these things. He had told her that just as soon as there was a bed for her, she would have to come into his hospital where he could look after her himself.

　　During the weeks since then the pains had come over more frequently, and the nar- rowed eyes became an almost permanent part of her expression. Always rather sharp, she began losing her temper over little things so that Johns father kept his thoughts to him- self more and more. John, as ready as possible to make allowances, tried to think what it would be like to have toothache all the time and how bad a temper that would make you.

　　So his mother would go into hospital for a few days. He was going to stay with his Aunt Daisy till she came back, and his father would stay on at home by himself. Johns cousin, Mona, was to come in and make the bed and wash the pots and dust round now and again. That was the arrangement, and John didnt care much for it. Apart from missing his mother ,he wasnt very fond of his Aunt Daisy because she was even more bad-tempered than his mother.

　　約翰.懷斯頓那天早上醒來時(shí)記起母親要去住院。他并沒有搞明白她哪里不舒服。雖然他知道她已經(jīng)有很長一段時(shí)間不舒服了，而且看到她的眼睛由于疼痛突然瞇起，看到她的手總是按在心臟部位，他幾乎也已經(jīng)習(xí)慣了。最后她向他們家的私人醫(yī)生咨詢，醫(yī)生把她送到了一位了解這種病癥的專家那里。這位專家告訴她，一旦有床位她就得住院，這樣他可以親自照料她。

　　從那以后的幾周里，由于疼痛更加頻繁，半閉的眼睛也幾乎成了她表情中永久的一部分了。她開始經(jīng)常為一些小事大發(fā)脾氣，這樣約翰的父親就越來越沉默了。約翰盡可能地體諒她，極力想象著經(jīng)常牙疼該是什么樣，那會(huì)使你的脾氣有多么糟糕。

　　因此，他母親得去醫(yī)院住幾天。在母親回來前，他要去戴西姨媽家住上一陣子，他父親將一個(gè)人待在家里。約翰的表姐莫娜會(huì)來鋪鋪床、洗洗鍋、不時(shí)地打掃打掃衛(wèi)生。就是這么安排的，約翰對(duì)此不太滿意。除去想念母親，他并不喜歡他的戴西姨媽，因?yàn)樗钠獗燃s翰的母親更糟。
