terrible adj. 可怕的，糟糕的，極度的
The sky was blue and the birds were singing. "Now, Jane, what if there was a man who made a terrible mistake, years ago in a foreign county. For many years he must live with his mistake. It seems he will always be unhappy and alone. Suddenly, he meets someone fresh, good and pure. Now, can he forget the terrible past, and live the rest of his life with her in peace?" It was a difficult question to answer. In the end I said, "Sir, even if this woman was very good, another human can't give you peace. You must ask fo God's help." "But I think I've found the woman who can make me happy forever! It's..." He paused. I thought my heart would stop. I was waiting for him to say... "Blanche Ingram," Mr. Rochester said in a hard-sounding voice. His face looked much less happy than before. He would not look at me as he spoke. "You know that I love her, don't you, Jane? Don't you think she'll make me happy?"
