part3，chapter2

上一章讲到了winston听到两个女党员小声低语的101室，这一章就写Winston在房间101遭到O’Brien的各种严刑拷打。Light that seemed stronger than usual was falling on his face. O'Brien was standing at his side, looking down at him intently. At the other side of him stood a man in a white coat, holding a hypodermic syringe. 这章对Winston来说应该是最痛苦的一章也是他早都料到又出乎意料的一章。而所有的严刑拷打不过只是个开始而已Later he was to realize that all that then happened was merely a preliminary, a routine interrogation to which nearly all prisoners were subjected.最后逼得他不得不做出选择。His sole concern was to find out what they wanted him to confess, and then confess it quickly, before the bullying started anew.承认一切都不难， It was easier to confess everything and implicate everybody. 但是后来winston意识到了这样一个事实。O’Brien才是那个最可怕的人.。

All through his interrogation, although he had never seen him, he had had the feeling that O'Brien was at his elbow, just out of sight. It was O'Brien who was directing everything. It was he who set the guards on to Winston and who prevented them from killing him. It was he who decided when Winston should scream with pain, when he should have a respite, when he should be fed, when he should sleep, when the drugs should be pumped into his arm. It was he who asked the questions and suggested the answers.
