想知道
Wonder

First you wonder if they're separate stories, but no, they're not, they're contingent stories and they form a pattern. And you begin with some of the island as the place to which the heroine of the book returns.

To be completely woman you need a master, and in him a compass for your life. You need a man you can look up to and respect. If you dethrone him it's no wonder that you are discontented, and discontented women are not loved for long.

It's odd, because I used to see pictures, on telly or wherever, of what I now know to be Shaftesbury Avenue and I used to wonder what that amazing street with all the lights was. Well, now I know. I think when you get a wee taste of something, it maybe isn't what you thought it was.
这很奇怪,因为我过去经常在电视上或其他地方看到照片,我现在知道的是沙夫茨伯里大道,我曾经想知道那条灯火通明的迷人街道是什么样子的。现在我知道了。我想当你对某样东西有一点点感觉的时候,它可能并不是你想象的那样。
