Lesson 6 – Twelve Angry Men (Part Two)
On justice
The whole history of the world is summed
up in the fact that, when nations are strong,
they are not always just, and when they
wish to be just, they are no longer
strong.
—Winston Churchill
世界的整个历史可以归结为这个事实: 一个国家强大时就
不太公正, 而当他们希望求得公正时, 就不再强大。

Judges
A judge or justice is an appointed or elected
official who presides over a court. The powers,
functions, and training of judges varies widely
from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
In USA, judges are not trained separately from
lawyers and are generally appointed or elected
from among practicing attorneys.
A professional person authorized
to practice law; conducts lawsuits
or gives legal advice

Judges
Being a judge is usually a prestigious position in society,
and as a result a variety of solemn traditions have
become associated with the occupation. In most nations
of the world judges wear long robes, usually black or red,
and sit on an elevated platform during trials. The
standard judges uniform originated with the Roman toga.
In some countries, notably Britain, judges also wear long
wigs and use special gavels to instill order in the
courtroom.
In the People’s Republic of China, judges wore regular
street clothes until 1984, when they began to wear
military style uniforms, which were intended to
demonstrate authority. These uniforms were replaced in
2000 by black robes similar to those in the rest of the
world.

Judges
In
most
English
speaking
countries
(particularly the USA) a judge is addressed
as "Your Honor" when presiding over the
judge's court, as a sign of respect for the
office.
The judges of the Supreme Court of the
United States, and the judges of the supreme
courts of several U. S. states and other
countries are called “justices”. In the United
Kingdom, a comparable rank is held by the
House of Lords; its judges are not called
judges, but Law Lords, and sit in the House
of Lords as peers.

Now it is proposed in Britain—as it is
always proposed once every five years—
that this anachronistic dress be abolished,
and that judges and advocates, as in
America, should appear in court as normal
human beings. It is said that wigs and
gowns intimidate the litigants and
witnesses.
Cons:
Yet some people argue that formal dress adds to the
dignity of the court, is historic, distinguishes the
main actors from mere participants.

General Introduction
Plot: A young delinquent awaits sentencing for the
manslaughter of his aggressive father. One juror feels there is
a reasonable doubt—to the frustration of his eleven
colleagues—thus preventing a quick verdict. During the
heated deliberations, the hidden preconceptions and
prejudices of the jurors are revealed.
Plot elements: conflict, crisis/turning moment, climax, etc.
Setting: jury room
Protagonists : 12 jurors
Theme of the story: "Twelve Angry Men" is about one
individual's ability to stand up for what he believes, even
when others ridicule him. It is also a powerful study not just
of the criminal justice system, but also of the diversity of
human experience, the nature of peer pressure, and the
difficulty of ever fully knowing the truth.

Did you hear about the two molecules walking

A pun is defined by Webster as "the humorous use of
a word, or of words which are formed or sounded
alike but have different meanings, in such a way as
to play on two or more of the possible applications; a
