Thirty years ago, the Earnshaw family lived at Wuthering Heights, with two teenaged children Hindley and Catherine. Mr. Earnshaw travels to Liverpool, where he adopts a homeless Gypsy boy, naming him "Heathcliff". Hindley finds himself robbed of his father's love and care and becomes bitterly jealous of the newcomer. However, Catherine grows very attached to him. Soon, the two children spend hours on the moors (荒原) together and hate every moment apart.
Because of the conflict(冲突), Hindley is eventually sent to college. However, he marries a woman named Frances and returns three years later, after Mr. Earnshaw dies. He becomes master of Wuthering Heights, making Heathcliff their servant instead of a family member.
Months after Hindley’s return, Heathcliff and Catherine travel to Thrushcross Grange to spy on the Linton family. However, they are found and try to escape. Catherine is caught by a dog, and then brought inside the Grange to have injuries tended to while Heathcliff is sent home. Catherine eventually returns to Wuthering Heights as a changed woman, looking and acting as a lady. She laughs at HeathcIiff’s dirty appearance. When the Lintons visit the next day, Heathcliff dresses up to impress her. It fails, however, when Edgar, one of the Lintons' children, argues with him. Heathcliff is locked in the attic, where Catherine later tries to comfort him. He swears revenge(报复) on Hindley.
In the summer of the next year, Frances gives birth to a son, Hareton, but she dies before the year is out. This leads Hindley to fall into a life of drunkenness and waste. Two years pass and Catherine has become close friends with Edgar, growing more distant from Heathcliff.
One day in August, while Hindley is absent, Edgar comes to visit Catherine. Before long, they declare themselves lovers. Catherine explains to Nelly, her servant, that she does not really love Edgar but Heathcliff. Unfortunately, she could never marry Heathcliff because of his lack of status and education. She therefore plans to marry Edgar and use that position to help raise Heathcliff’s status. Unfortunately, Heathcliff has overheard the first part and runs away, disappearing without a trace. After three years, Edgar and Catherine are married.
Six months after their marriage, Heathcliff returns as a gentleman, having grown stronger and richer. Catherine is delighted to see him although Edgar is not so keen. Edgar's sister, Isabella, now eighteen, falls in love with Heathcliff. He looks down upon her but encourages the adolescent love, seeing it as a chance for revenge on Edgar. When he embraces Isabella one day at the Grange, there is an argument with Edgar, which causes Catherine to lock herself in her room and fall ill.
Heathcliff has been staying at the Heights, gambling with Hindley and teaching Hareton bad habits. Hindley is gradually losing his wealth, mortgaging (抵押) the farmhouse to Heathcliff to repay his debts.
While Catherine is ill, Heathcliff leaves with Isabella, causing Edgar to disown (与……断绝关系) his sister. The two marry and return two months later to Wuthering Heights. Heathcliff hears that Catherine is ill and arranges to visit her in secret. In the early hours of the day after their meeting, Catherine gives birth to her daughter, Cathy, and then dies. Hindley dies six months after Catherine. Heathcliff finds himself the master of Wuthering Heights and the guardian of Hareton.

     Anorexia (厌食) and bulimia (食欲过度) are the names that come to mind when we think of eating
disorders (失调). But there is another eating disorder more common than anorexia and bulimia, and some
experts say it's becoming a major health problem in America.
     "As soon as I came home, I'd throw down my backpack, open the refrigerator and start eating.
Sandwiches, cookies, candy bars -I'd just eat until I went to bed," says Matt Wymer, 18.
     Matt was a binge (无节制的) eater. According to a new study from Harvard Medical School, 3.5
percent of women and 2 percent of men suffer from this eating disorder.
      "You know we start at a very young age. You fall and someone says, 'Oh, here, we'll go get some ice
cream, and that'll make it feel better. ' Or when you go to the doctor, you get a candy; something bad
happens, 'Oh, here's something that's comforting,'" says Marilyn Tanner, a doctor.
     Matt looked for comfort because he was always teased (嘲笑) about his weight.
     "There were days when I came and picked him up from school and he got in the car and he started crying
before I asked him anything," says Cathy Wymer, Matt's mother."I probably gave him whatever he wanted
to try to make him happy, but it was the wrong way of doing it." says Matt's father.
      "I just felt better after I ate a lot," says Matt.
      Experts say the first line of treatment for binge eaters is to help them find other ways, besides food,
ot feel better."There are about five basic ways. You write, you talk, you cry, you exercise, you laugh.
Laughing also reduces the stress that lots of times people are feeling," says Genie Burnett, Matt's doctor.
     With the help of his doctor, Matt started a diet and did much sport. He's lost more than 150 pounds,
he's healthier and he says he's more confident.
