第一章作者通過各方面的描寫展現(xiàn)了Winston的基本性格特點和其所處的時代背景和政治環(huán)境。
"BIGBROTHRT IS WATHCHING YOU”
1.It was the patrol, snooping into people’s windows.
2.You had to live-did live, from habit that became instinct-in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, ever movement scrutinized.人們一直處于被監(jiān)視的高壓狀態(tài)祈坠,在政治高壓下人民是被剝奪基本的權利的吼鱼,同時活得小心翼翼腰懂。
Winston turned round abruptly,He had set his features into the expression of quiet optimism which it was advisable to wear when facing the telescreen.
其實從對Winston的描寫中可看出Winston的性格中帶有反叛色彩,但他卻又不得不尊重這一套體制的生活法則翻伺。很期待之后他的心里變化過程畴蒲,是屈服于高壓和恐懼還是進行反抗?

在群體中染簇,個人的情緒和感覺是很容易被感染的参滴。即使自己內(nèi)心有一套價值判斷標準,但一旦處于社會的環(huán)境锻弓,就很難不被影響砾赔。特別是那種激烈亢奮的氛圍有著極強的感染力,人一不注意就被牽著走青灼。一旦這種效應被利用是非潮┬模可怕的。就好比Winston在Two Minutes Hate 上的表現(xiàn)聚至。
