Whenever you are called to a sick person I will appear to you. If I stand at the sick person’s head, you may say with confidence that you can make him well again; then give him some of this herb, and he will recover.

You have been sticky-fingered and have robbed people of their cloth. You will not get into heaven. The Lord has forbidden me to let anyone in as long as he is out. “好一个老实本分的人！”彼得说，“就像上了绞架的小偷一样老实！你手脚不干净，常常偷人家的布料。你不能进天堂。天主吩咐他外出期间严禁任何人入内。”2 Text: The Tailor in Heavenforbid: vt. 1) 禁止，不许 e.g. I forbid you to go. 2) 阻止，妨碍 e.g. Lack of space forbids listing the names of all those who contributed. indeed: ad. 真的，真是 e.g. An honorable man, indeed! sticky-fingered: a. 〈口〉有偷窃癖的，爱偷东西的 e.g. Make sure you put your things away at night; some people round here are sticky-fingered.

I will tend the children, wash their diapers, wipe off and clean the benches on which they have been playing, and patch all their torn clothes.”2 Text: The Tailor in HeavenMeaning: “Oh, please be kind to me. It is not an act of stealing to pick up and keep small pieces of cloth which drop to the ground from the table. It’s not a big deal. Look, I’ve come here with my legs injured and feet blistered.

He had to take a seat in a corner behind the door, and was told to stay there quietly and peacefully, so that the Lord would not notice him when he returned, and become angry. 圣彼得被他的话打动了，把天堂的门开了一条窄窄的缝，让精瘦的瘸腿裁缝溜了进来。他得坐在门后的角落里，安份待着，免得上帝回来后看见了发火。2 Text: The Tailor in Heavenslip: vi. 悄悄疾行，溜 e.g. The movie star had slipped into town before the crowds reached the airport. lame: a. 跛足的 e.g. He is lame in one leg.

Finally he came to a place where there were many beautiful and costly chairs. At their center was a seat made entirely of gold and set with glistening precious stones. It stood much higher than the other chairs, and a golden footstool stood in front of it. This was the seat on which the Lord sat when he was at home, and from which he could see everything that was happening on earth. 一开始裁缝遵从如仪，可圣彼得一出门，他就站了起来，好奇地东张西望，把天堂的每个角落都看了个遍。最后他来到一个地方，那里摆满了许多漂亮贵重的椅子，中央是一把纯金铸造的椅子，镶满了闪闪发光的宝石。这把椅子比别的椅子高很多，前面还搁了只镀金的脚凳。这就是上帝在家时坐的那把椅子，坐在上面人间发生的一切就可以一览无余。2 Text: The Tailor in Heavenset…with…: 用……装饰…… e.g. Her bracelet was set with diamonds. glistening: a. 闪耀的，反光的 e.g. the glistening pavement e.g. Her eyes were glistening with tears. look into: 窥视，浏览，观察 e.g. He has promised to look into the matter.

Finally he could control his curiosity no longer, and he climbed up and sat down on it. From there he saw everything that was happening on earth. 裁缝呆呆地站在那儿，久久地盯着那把椅子，因为他对别的都不如对这个喜欢。最后他忍不住好奇地爬到椅子上坐了下来。这一下，他可以看到地上发生的一切。2 Text: The Tailor in HeavenQuestion about Para. 7focus1textfocus1text上海交通大学出版社 7. Did the tailor do what Saint Peter had told him to do? And what did he do after he entered heaven?No. He walked around in heaven when Peter was out and sat down on God’s seat.2 Text: The Tailor in Heavenfocus1textfocus1text上海交通大学出版社 8 He noticed an ugly old woman who was standing beside a stream doing the laundry. She secretly set two scarves aside. Seeing this made the tailor so angry that he took hold of the golden footstool and threw it at the old thief, through heaven down to earth. Unable to bring the stool back again, he quietly sneaked down from the seat, sat back down in his place behind the door, and pretended that he had done nothing at all.2 Text: The Tailor in Heavensneak: vi. 偷偷地走，溜 e.g. I saw him sneak away from us. take hold of: 抓住，握住 e.g. Little children sometimes take hold of sharp knives and cut themselves. set aside: 把……搁到一边；留出；暂时不考虑 e.g. I set aside my overcoat and took out my summer clothes.

He asked Saint Peter what had become of the footstool, but he did not know. Then he asked if he had admitted anyone. 9 天主带着天国的随从回来时，没有看到躲在门后的裁缝。可当他坐到椅子上时，却发现脚凳不见了。于是他便问圣彼得凳子哪儿去了，圣彼得说不知道。上帝又问他有没有放人进来过。2 Text: The Tailor in Heavenattendant: n. 随从；侍者，服务员 e.g. The attendant slept on the offer and then decided.

Meaning: Then the Lord ordered his attendants to bring the tailor to him, and asked him what he had done with the footstool.2 Text: The Tailor in Heavenknow of: 了解，听说 e.g. I know of the man, but I’ve never spoken to him. e.g. Do you know of a good doctor? “没有啊，”彼得答道，“只有一个跛脚裁缝，这会儿还在门后坐着呢。” 于是上帝便下令把裁缝叫来，问他有没有拿脚凳，放到哪里去了。focus1textfocus1text上海交通大学出版社 12 “Oh, Lord,” answered the tailor joyously, “in my anger I threw it down to earth at an old woman whom I saw stealing two scarves while doing the laundry.” 2 Text: The Tailor in Heavenjoyously: ad. 快乐地，快活地 e.g. She opened the door for me and screamed joyously. “主啊，”裁缝得意地答道，“我看到一个老妇人洗衣服时偷了两条围巾，我一怒之下就把凳子朝她砸下去了。”focus1textfocus1text上海交通大学出版社 13 “Oh, you scoundrel,” said the Lord, “if I were to judge as you judge, how would it have gone with you? I would have long since had no chairs, benches, seats, no, not even a stove-poker, but would have thrown everything down at the sinners. You can no longer stay in heaven, but must go outside the gate again. From there watch where you are going. Here no one metes out punishment, except for me alone, the Lord.” “你这个无赖！”上帝说道，“要是我也像你那样断案，你今天会怎么样？这些椅子、凳子甚至连拨火棍也早该扔向地上的罪人了！你不能再呆在天堂了，必须马上出去。路上好自为之吧。这里除了我——天主之外，谁也无权惩罚任何人。”2 Text: The Tailor in Heavenmete out: 惩罚，责罚，使受苦 e.g. He felt he had a right to mete out physical punishment to the children. long since: 很早以前 e.g. He has long since been recognized as a great playwright.
