L35-1:Justice was done 

The word justice is usually associated with courts of law.

We might say that justice has been done when a man's innocence or guilt has been proved beyond doubt.

Justice is part of the complex machinery of the law.

Those who seek it,

undertake an arduous journey and can never be sure that they will find it.

Judges,

however wise or eminent,

are human and can make mistakes.

There are rare instances when justice almost ceases to be an abstract concept.

Reward or punishment are meted out quite independent of human interference.

At such times,

justice acts like a living force.

When we use a phrase like it serves him right,

we are, in part,

admitting that a certain set of circumstances has enabled justice to act of its own accord.

When a thief was caught on the premises of a large jewellery store one morning,

the shop assistants must have found it impossible to resist the temptation to say 'it serves him right'.

The shop was an converted house one with many large, disused fireplaces and tall, narrow chimneys.

练习感悟:这篇课文的难度颇大,又创了用时记录,超过两小时。录了一遍,不再继续。后半段太多发音不准的地方,这暴露出了自己的短板,理解、记忆都不太及时,吸收不太好,读起来压力挺大。需要调整。
