the evening arrived the boys阅读理解

The evening arrived； the boys took their places． The master， in his

cooled uniform， stood at the table； his poor helpers were behind him；

the gruel （稀粥） was served out； and after they spoke to God to give

thanks， there was little time left to eat． The gruel disappeared

immediately； the boys whispered each other， and encouraged Oliver

to ask for more． Oliver was very hungry and decided to take a risk． He

rose from the table； and went to the master， plate and spoon in hand，

said："Please， sir， I want some more．" ① The master was a fat，

healthy man； but he turned very pale． He looked at Oliver in great

surprise for some seconds， and nearly fell but for the support to the

table． The helpers were frozen with wonder； the boys with

fear． "What!" said the master at last， in a confused voice． "Please，

sir，" replied Oliver，"I want some more．" The master hit Oliver's head

with the ladle； and screamed for Mr． Bumble． ② The board were

sitting in plotting （密谋） something， when Mr． Bumble rushed into

the room in great excitement， and spoke to the gentleman loudly in the

high chair， said："Mr． Limbkins，I beg your pardon，sir! Oliver Twist

has asked for more!" ③ "For more!" said Mr． Limbkins． "Calm

yourself， Bumble，and answer me clearly． Do I understand that he

asked for more， after he had eaten the supper allotted （配给） by the

dietary？" "He did，sir，"replied Bumble． "That boy will be hung，" said

the gentleman in white． "I know that boy will be hung．" Nobody was

against the gentleman's opinion． A heated discussion took

place． Oliver was put in a cold， dark room and no boys were allowed

to talk to him； and a bill was next morning pasted on the outside of the

gate， offering a reward of five pounds to anybody who would take

Oliver Twist off the hands of the parish （教区）．In other words， five

pounds and Oliver Twist were offered to any man or woman who wanted

an apprentice to any trade，business， or calling． ④ "I never was more

convinced of anything in my life，"said the gentleman in white， as he

knocked at the gate and read the bill next morning： "I never was more

convinced of anything in my life， than I am that that boy will come to be

hung．"
