During three days Tom was deeply concerned about the Judge's condition and hungry for news of it.
即使是留守的女人,也可以说她们人在心不在:她们渴望得到有关战争和亲人擢升的新况,一有消息就互相传递,她们等待着——哪怕等待的不过是—包精糖或印度薄细布。
Even the women who stayed could be said to have left in imagination, hungry for news of war and promotion, relaying information and waiting-if only for a parcel of refined sugar or Indian muslin.
