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 conception. 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 fur 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 old-fashioned one with many large, disused fireplaces and tall, narrow chimneys. '

今天的知识笔记实在是有点可怕，所幸还是早起了，要不然是不可能这么详细去完成的……怎么说呢，这个学期两次英语的单元测，第一次99，因为作文扣了一分，题目全对；这一次大家对完答案好像也是说我的题目是全对的……

不知道是试卷比较简单的问题，还是我的水平有所提升。拭目以待，月考的成绩吧。
