Lesson 6 Harrison Bergeron
“BUZZ! BUZZ!” went the transmitter in his ear.
“Boy!” said Hazel, “I heard that from all the way across the room.”
George held his ears and started trembling.
“Ow!” It was so loud that tears formed under his eyes.
“You look tired,” said Hazel.
“Why don’t you put your head down on the couch?
You can rest your handicap bag as well.”
In George’'s handicap bag were placed several lead balls.
These prevented him from running too fast.
“What?”
“You’ve been so tired lately, honey,” said Hazel.
“If only we could cut a few holes in the bag and take out a few balls.”
“I don’t think about it anymore. It’s just a part of me.
And anyway, if I did it, then other people would do the same thing.
Pretty soon, we’d be back in the dark ages again where everybody would be competing with everybody else.
Surely you don’t want to live in that kind of world.”
“Do you really think that’'s possible?”
“BUZZ! BUZZ!” went the buzzer in George’s ear.
“Huh? What are you talking about?”
“Never mind,” said Hazel.
The television program was suddenly interrupted for a news bulletin.
It wasn't clear at first what the bulletin was about.
The announcer, like all announcers, had a serious speech impediment.
“L-L-L-Ladies and g-g-g-gentlemen.”
The announcer gave up, handing his sheet of paper to a ballerina.
He asked her if she could read it for him.
She must have been extraordinarily beautiful since she wore a hideous mask.
