帮帮忙．．．不要太深奥和太难的词！18 years before in 1757, because of knowing a terrible secret, Dr. Manette was picked up and sent to the Bastille--- one of the most terrible prisons in the world, by the noble Marquis St. Evremonde. 18 years after in 1775, His only daughter, Lucie Manette, fell in love with Charles Darnay, the nephew of the Marquis St. Evremonde, which abandoned the noble degree to live by himself.
“Let the past be past.” Thought Dr. Marnette, and was preparing to have a happy new life with his daughter and her hus band. But the revolution of France broke, and because of his family, Charles Darnay was denounced--- denounced by a letter which was wrote by Dr. Marnette himself 18 years ago! What a cruel strike! Isn’t it? Though he was innocent, poor Charles would have been sent to the guillotine.
The story seems to be over thus far, but, wait! There is another man we might refer to, that is Sydney Carton, the lawyer of England, the good friend of Manette’s families, who took after Charles very much. It was he, finally be killed instead by his own mind. Why? As you may ask, I want to ask the same question. That is because---I guess---love. And of course, the HOPE, yes, the HOPE. When Sydney was killed as Charles, there was much hope on his face. What was he thinking about as he went to his death? If we could have listened to his thoughts, we might have heard beautiful things:
“It’s the time. May God forgive me. But I see the death of all who hate. I see a new France, growing from out of the old. I see a beautiful Paris filled with happy people.
And I see the lives which I have saved. They are happy in England. There is a boy-child in lucre’s arms. And he is named Sydney. He will grow old and bring love to my name.
It is a far, far better thing that I do than I have ever done. It is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known.
