笼子里的女人

　　The lady is Mrs. Hilyard, a wealthy poetess who lives in a three-story city mansion and her cage is her elevator, which stops a dozen feet short of the main floor due to an electrical failure on a July 4th weekend. She rings her outside alarm, eventually noticed by a drunken derelict, who breaks into the house, ignores her plight and helps himself to various items and alcohol. He leaves with his loot but returns a while later with a plump prostitute and three teenage hoodlums, who proceed to terrorize Mrs. Hilyard as they wreck her home. 译文(2): 这位女士就是希尔亚德夫人，一位富有的女诗人，她住在一座三层的城市豪宅里，她的笼子就是她的电梯，由于7月4日周末的一次电力故障，电梯停在离主楼12英尺的地方。她拉响了外面的警报，最后被一个醉醺醺的流浪汉发现了，他闯进了房子，无视她的困境，自己拿走了各种东西和酒。他带着他的赃物离开了，但过了一会儿又带回来一个肥胖的妓女和三个十几岁的流氓，他们继续恐吓希尔亚德太太，破坏她的家。
